That's me in 4th. ???? how do you guys achieve those sub-12 second 1/4 mile times

I'd start with a 100% charge, or as near as you can get, and put on a decent set of track tyres and lower the pressures for the drag test runs ?

Go on then @JonnyG!

Let's see ya!??

New Cyberster road test video out in which Miles invites other cars of a similar performance to go up against it at the Three Sisters track in a future test. Would the worlds No1 X power jockey be up for the challenge? World fame or shame would surely follow, might even let you have a go!

Well it would be no contest with the 335bhp version but the 501bhp version is 1920 kilos versus the XPWRS 1800.

Could be quite close but I reckon I'd have it.

The trouble with that is, I have upgraded my tyres so WHEN I beat it, Cyberster owners will be moaning about how unfair the test was. ?

You should offer your services and car to Mat Watson at CarWow for some drag races ????

Best they managed was 12.0s dead to the quarter mile, so you are truly the champ ?

Going on the videos the Xpowers 0-30mph times must be insane ??

 

[Bricktop X PWR]

Love that m8, but the horse has surely bolted!!

The acid test IMO, would have been the Top Gear Test Track.

I have no doubt at all that if Flintoffs talent hadn't run out (Again!) then X Power would have been featured at some point.

I truly believe it's only a matter of time before we see TG back on our screens.

Whether they will back test all the significant cars of the last couple of years remains to be seen.

The Xpower would probably win being 200kg lighter than the GT. Either way a tight race.

This is bad PR for MG thats if theyre trying to sell the Cyberster ?

 

[Bricktop X PWR]

Money no object I would be driving this today.

I still feel the XPWR is staggering value for money, and even more so with the deals I've seen on Tinternet.

I really like the fake engine noise and gear changes.

Perfect for when you want to reminisce about your (my) miss spent ICE love affair.

If you are interested, try and watch it all, it's quite funny. ?

 

[Bricktop X PWR]

Bloody Chancers!!!

 

[JonnyG]

You could'nt resist could you ???

They started it!

Bandying about the big I am!

Oooo Look at me! I'm No1

Look how fast I am!

I'm the greatest!

I'm the fastest................

I'm the.......

Uh, um, ooo,




I'll get my coat.

 

[JonnyG]

I think they were the fastest until you came along and silenced them !! ???

 

[GranTurismoEra]

He should at least find a drag strip. The roads not smooth. Bet hes stripping his car out right now

 

[Bricktop X PWR]

Not seen this before (I think?)

The lowered car won the race.

I guess it also comes down to what tyres each car was using and what SoC each was at too.

Agreed.
Not much detail was there!

 

[JonnyG]

The tyres look wider for a start and I'm guessing better quality (grip) than the standard ones.

The car on the left .... maybe with 245/35/19 ... the gear ratio is shortened
