it's like a lot of men and motors programmes, it rambles on and on and there's really not much to it, I might not bother after all

Ive seen this,I think he gets a time of only 6.3 or something, the S seems really slow off the line.

I think he had a MY00 or MY01 so maybe that explains it

it's an 02 silverstone, he got 6.03 seconds which is pretty good i thought, considering Honda book it at 6.2 for 0-62. The show itself was absolute shite though, it looks like they ran the competition in a motorway layby or something

The EVO test figure was 5.5s IIRC.

It's worth searching for the old thread that Mr Mojo discussed this in. Basically it was a street car thing, but people trailered in cars , and the venue changed unexpectedly IIRC, so the road featured was far too narrow to be safe.
