General Acceleration

[BON]

Hi,
Whilst watching Top Gear on Sunday I had a thought how long does it take the 92 Panda Dance to go from 0-60?

Anyone ever tried it?


Happy new year

My carb 999cc Panda could do it in roughly 14 secs. Is your Dance a 903cc engine?

 

[BON]

Yeah its a 903cc

 

[Giacosa]

Id say maybe 16 seconds for a 903cc tis rough on the clutch tho

 

[PandaManPaul]

Never tried it in my 903cc Dance (I care for my clutch too much) but the brochure figures are around 16.5 seconds with a top speed of 84mph.

Y10 Stats
0-100KM/H

Y10 Fire 16.0 (999cc FIRE)
Y10 FIRE LX 15.2 (1108cc FIRE)
Y10 Touring 14.5 (1049cc 124 Engine)
Y10 Turbo 9.5 (1049cc 124 Engine w turbo)
Y10 4WD 17.5 (999cc FIRE)
Y10 4WD i.e. 17.0 (1108cc FIRE)
Y10 GTie 12.0 (1301cc 124 Engine)

The FIRE variants should compare with their Panda equivalents in terms of performance.

The new panda takes 19 seconds apparently, *shrugs* theres 10 years of progress for you

Anybody tried this in a selecta yet?

(and no, I'm not going to try it, the Mice would kill me afterwards!! )

If you worry about how fast the Panda is you've missed the point.

I do believe it's only the 4x4 model which takes this amount of time.

I discovered yesterday that Rufus is faster than a J reg Mini in the traffic light GP.

i have an electronic timer fitted to Bo, so i will see what it can do

I was just driving normally!

PS, that sounds like a challenge!

 

[Giacosa]

I thought the top speed of a selecta was 76

 

[smokeme]

Last time i tested my 88 750cl (999 swap in) it did it in under 8sec but the tires will never forgive me for that stunt.



Do i really need to mention it had the turbo conversion already:chin:
i never mention it when racing those ricers Can't wait to finish the 1242

 

[christopher watson]

well mine will do 105mph. maybe its the 1000cc selecta that does 76.

 

[Steven]

76 mph? Pfffft.....

 

[pandamonius_maximus]

Look at this old jem of a thread I've dug up!

I have just done a 0-60 run in the old 4x4 and got 21 seconds. How does this sound to you all? I am pretty sure thats good for mine, but wouldnt mind knowing what others 4x4 fires do!?

Cheers
Si

God, there's only me and Fuzzy still around from when this thread started Sam's only got a 2x4 and I'm Mr 1108cc so you can't really count me!

Juppy's gone to Stu now so I wonder if he's up for any time trials?

Jim

i got 15.5 secs in my 1987 4x4 when it was 999cc
never tested as a 1242cc 8v,
but it was alot quicker,

i remember me and huw having a 4x4 panda race his standard 999 and mine 1242, i really did shoot away.

i will test my current red panda sometime, should be interesting.
