    Polo 9n3 Performance Tracking Thread #2

    VWindahouse created the original thread here but has long since abandoned this forum since selling the little red devil to Sean.

    I thought I'd create a new thread to continue the 1st post updates as people post new best times/figures for their 9N/3 Polos. The times have been updated to the latest in the other thread. So please add posts in this thread and I will update this first post.

    Categories include outright Dyno proven Power and Torque figures (to save the arguments rankings will reflect the highest numbers provided regardless of the type of Dyno. Although the type of Dyno should be listed for curiosity sake)

    1/4 Mile times and various circuit times (official times only please).
    Any other suggestions please let me know.

            Greg, thanks for getting life back into this stuff. I think there may be a few more participants in Brisbane this year too. Nudge nudge, you know who you are

              Any chance you could give the missing dates for the hillclimbs, Sam?

                  Thanks Sam. I'm jealous of your class placings - I always come dead last in mine (doesn't help that the regs classes the PoD as 2500cc-3499cc alongside Porsche Cayman's, BMW M3's, Nissan Skyline's, Mitsubishi Evo's...)

                  Guys, I will only be putting the times and track configurations up in the first post but put as much info as you like in the update post so people can put your efforts in perspective (eg hazrd's Winton time is slower than mine but he used street tyres while I was running on semi-slicks to set my time)

                    Oh don't be jealous - at some of the smaller club rounds the class can be only 6,7, or 8 cars sometimes and there are always still cars/drivers in the lower road reg class that beat me. A particular vRS Fabia to name one. And in the state rounds I'm 2500cc - unlimited, which usually is a blood bath. Some of those times I put up aren't great and they better get quicker this year or i'll give up! That's why I hope for rain and the tight tracks and bought some semi's. Its nice to bring a cheap little trophy home to the kids though.

                      Hoyhoy.

                      Greg when updating figures they should only be official times (natsoft), other wise ya can end up with some ripper figures.
                      Hooroo.

                        That's why I want the dates, Eddy, so I can vet the results.

                        I'm being lenient with these early updates just to get things going again.

                            Got 120kw and 368nm at the wheel with Mainline Chassis Dyno last November
                            Haven't done any track so far but might start sometime this year
                            That won't happen until I got everything sorted for my PoD

                              Went to the strip for the first time in my polo last night. Was a free event being held for any VW car at Willowbank raceway so it was packed and only got 3 runs.

                              Best run was: 13.747 @105.41 MPH.

                              The other ones I stuffed the launch but the MPH was up. In comparison to other cars with the same mph, if I were to get the 60 foot times down to 2.0-2.1 it would be capable of a high 12 to low 13.
