Re: Blasted Integ Type-R 850 1995

You're right, but that's true for the 850. Dennis was referring to the S70 GLT and S70 T5, which have both tested faster than the 850 versions.

I was referring to the S70 versions, and for those models, those numbers I quoted are most likely on the high side. For example, R&T has the S70 T5 listed at 6.1 0-60.

Of course, these numbers definitely include a brake-torque launch, but nearly all of the published numbers are attainted in a similar fashion, so comparisons are impossible unless everyone uses numbers achieved with a torque assisted launch.
