Performance

[jiggs]

Does anyone have some performance figures for the Tuscan S
sensible figures that is, I see 180 mph confirmed for a Tuscan 1 S
0=60 figures
thanks

figures from different articles seem to vary from 3.8 to 4.3 still i would imagine very dry roads with warm tyres

Real world stuff (my car) -

0 - 119mph = 12.3s (1/4 mile Santa Pod)
0 - 155mph = 25.8s (3/4 mile Wattisham Airfield)
0 - 160mph = 27.7s (7/8 mile Woodbridge Airfield)

Extrapolating from the above figures -

0 - 60mph = approx. 4 sec
0 - 100mph = between 8-9 sec

...which seems to tie in with TVRs figures quite nicely.

Yours is one of the faster ones though, i think it was yours i saw toasting an RS6 at fighting torque

Thanks for the replys,
I was asking because to be honest I could not believe the indicated speeds I was obtaining on a certain airfield.
It was showing 197 and I was having to brake hard, Im sure the car had some left but was running out of tarmac.
0-60 figures I didn't get but that is largely down to driving skill
I was surprised how stable the car was at those high speeds no wandering at all felt well planted, but I had just fitted a new set of shocks.
Whatever the truth it is an awesome car

I am however, somewhat hampered in the power-to-WEIGHT stakes though...
