XR6T4ME Member 186 Member For: 23y 1m 3d Location: Melbourne Posted 22/07/04 03:13 AM Posted 22/07/04 03:13 AM I killed one the other day,performance mode,too easy,changed lanes in front of him,that's how much I killed him by.Had a loud zorst and all,pffft all noise and no actionwhat a hoot it wasPS had a 255 badge on the backIt's not the VX or VY1 clubbies you need to worry about.It's the VYII's with 285kw that can beat you... Ahh, that's good news that I wipped his butt fair n square and not by a stroke of luck. Must have been VY series 1 then.But you would have to be aware if it is series 1 or II. Geez 285kw Vs 240Kw. More of a run for our big brother the GT which is its direct competitor. That is why we Ts have Nizpro or APS Stage II I guess!!!!!

Go for It, I mean its value for money and there isnt a car in ford or fpv's lineup that can match it for weight to power ratio. It simply out performs everything the ford has to offer including GT and GT-P. I believe you may have made that up. Last year street machine did an excellent test of 10 cars. They tested value for money as well as all of the handling/speed/performance etc. top two you may ask? in second place was the GT. First? The XR6turbo, (value for money pushed it over the line ahead of the GT.) that's right boys and girls...a panal of top judges just proved your theory that ford has nothing that can match/beat a VY clubsport wrong. Go do some research and get back to us.Bbongs daughter.

Love it when the Turbo kicks in Daniel

I must admit that the R8 from the Sydney Motor Show was close to the pick of the show for me but I don't think I'd be jumping the fence just yet. As someone said earlier, you want more power .. go Phase II or Phase III.And Mondie .... What have I missed ? Once a loyal T man. Then you jump onto a GT and start talking it up. Now !?!?!?!? The other team ??? Maybe you should just get a Ferrari mate !!

I used to go into Ford on the weekend with shorts and a T-shirt and noone would look at me but when I walked into BMW one weekend I had a fair few salesmen approach me offering me a drive etc.
