But they started with something that was quick. A standard evo does what a 4.5sec 0-60, a Mk1 golf was around 10sec? :)

Well not really cause they have done the same as this chap ripped a car to bits ans started again. and as the golf has a 1.8t which has a 0-60 of around 6secs anyway and ita in a lighter shell there isnt much in it ;)

My point is the Evo is a 2l Turbo 4WD from the factory, with factory performance of 13.3sec 1/4mile.
Golf Mk1 is a 1.8 8v FWD from the factory with performance of 16.36s 1/4mile.

A lot more fabrication is required to make a 9sec Golf, than a 9sec Evo ;)

They were taken at the Redline Magazine shootout day at the pod last year, I'd been up there with the guys from Fensport, was a cool day out, the green one snapped a shaft though so never got a chance to prove itself but from what I'm told the engine is capable of BIG power.
