Approx 24 metres.
Isn't it 15m. Aren't you using the final velocity rather than average/actual velocity? Not that it matters, it's bloody quick.
Are you guys having a laugh? It will be over 100m probably nearer 200m surely.
Average of (crudely) 30mph for 2.2 seconds? 1mph = .447 metres per second

Distance travelled = 30 (mph) x .447 (metres per second) x 2.2 seconds. This would be around 29 metres before the car hit 60 mph?

Probably a bit less as the average speed will be a bit higher than 30 since 0-30 takes less time than 30-60 but it's giving me a headache thinking about it. I should have gone to university....

Edit: I think it's:

60mph/2.2 seconds = 27 mph average = 12.2 metres per second for 2.2 seconds = 27m?
Is this the Saturday morning 'special' maths club?

Assuming constant acceleration:

x=((v0+v1)/2)*t where velocity is in m/s

x=((0+26.82)/2)*2.2 = 29.50m

Well done. I hope you feel better being a lot cleverer than me. Have you got a special formula for everything?

has anyone seen the 918 ?

F**in HUGE, looks like a slab-sided blob, bus like

real shame IMO, just makes the CGT seem even more the real deal
Not sure how you derive at a bus looking,must have nice buses in your part the world.

I admit when i saw the pre production model,i thought that dont look great,and the cgt looks better.but now its out,it looks nice.its very similar in size to the cgt.

FYI
at 60 mph, the 918 will have travelled 114ft. Its takes 7ft or one wheel rotation to hit 16mph

Blimey. They have done their homework. The head stuff is not common knowledge. They all made 400bhp or there abouts. I know of one that was over 410.

Interesting

2 minutes on Wikipedia.

Asking price is £150k. It's the MCP Norfolk car - previously advertised on PH.

no help from me required, the car will talk for it self....a few about with a bit of history though.. but no more than others, taking into account that the cars have been enjoyed...

the 1000 mile car would be nice at 120ish..

Great trade if you can get it for that.
The dealer one if has actually sold would have been subject to his usual 10% plus vat charge so that minus some wiggle gives you an idea what the seller actually got for the car

Would be illegal in a stock market. wink

Steve is merely relaying credible data, the wheeler dealer is doing quite the opposite.
