What mods you done? Looks quick, but I doubt it'll be 4.9 seconds, unless you have done something sdrious to your car.???

Bloody hell thats fast, what have you had done?! And more to the point how the hell did you get the traction as the TCS light only flashes briefly through 1st!

download the movie... copy and paste the path then open it in a video editing software package... the move the slider to the 60 mark and it at 4.98.

im gonna try it again as i got turbo stall/lag in 1st when the traction control bleeps on...

also, you need to remember that the speedo reads about five miles and hour out on the Ibiza cupra, well it does on mine and a few others i have seen. so 60 is 55, andimo that would make a far more realistic time of very low 6's

Its out by about 5-8% anyway on standard wheels, most cars are. On closer inspection it does look about 6s. 0-60 is a pointless measurement anyway, but it does look quick. Nice gearchange from 1st to 2nd as well, mine doesnt like it very much when i throw it in. Come on stop stalling, what mods???!!

nh dont believe that, theres no shake on the camera at all. reckon its sped up with vid editijng software. so way does the ibiza pick up that quick after each change, DV or not

errrrr the reason the camera is not shaking is coz of it's wedged in the dash from the stearing wheel coloum and the top of the gauage thingy... ok ... it is NOT speeded up.. coz this would be toooo obvious coz of the sound.. *everyone knows that pitch and everyone know these cupras do 60mph in 2nd if this video was speeded up the sound will be out .. or the sound would be a diffrent quality as it might have been dubbed over the video i am not messing around and this really is a REAL video.. 1000000%...

anyway LOL

now since the road was damp and well this was attempt 1/1 i recon i can get the gear change better so now im gonna go out and try it again this time once i finish i will carry on filming and shd like the street and maybe a voice over as im accerating 0-60... err i will also play LIVE radio footage and film sumthing on the car fly back in g-force...! LOL

ok wis me luck and let there be no coppers on the A3 london bound.. LOL
