Is my Type R faster than usual?
Hi
My car posted a 12.9 at Edzel today.
G BURNETT
12.912 sec sec
0.736 sec Reaction
1.741 sec 60 foot
104.4 mph mph
Right lane
Is this fast for a type R as everyone I've spoken too says that this is a fast time for a Scooby??

Type R Has shorter gears than other scoobs except the RA, So quicker acceleration than 4 doors. not sure on standard times for the 1/4m but 0-60 is 4.6. looks like a good time well done

Think that's about right for a good one with someone who can drive
Did a 12.9@106 in my STIV 4 door with exhaust and filter.
