Nah a VR6 percentage wise will be quicker I reckon, I've sat in a well sorted VR6 Stock and it was quick, but I've always said its the driver at the end of the day if the ABF driver pulled off quicker he might just have ruffed the VR driver enough for him to fluff it up?
Down to: TWO SIMPLE THINGS
Driver?
How well the was conversion done?


Your getting off the point here. We know it's down to driver , work done etc
That's why i said 'All things equal' apart from the 'Whore five door' and the 3 door....No whores please..


OK......Lets go drag strip and brands hatch race track...then...for good measure....Please don't shout back again :grin:
Then your missing large variables IF YOUR POINT IS ABOUT WEIGHT THEN TAKE IT UP ANOTHER NOTCH? HOW ABOUT AROUND THE TRACK WHERE BENDS MATTER ETC BLAH BLAH BLAH...... a 5 DOOR IS MORE RIGID DUE TO MORE METAL STRUCTURE SO THROW THAT ONE IN THERE FOR GOOD MEASURE!!!!

Yep! did miss the point..Apologies i had a bad day at work GRRR.
'Now then Piss or poo i have not got a clue'

Well the piss comes out first if it's us unless you have had a ruby murray, bad that looks more solid...So i am now totally confused.

I think all being equal the VR6 would be quicker off the line but would be caught in the mid to late drag beating the VR6.
However
I think due to the point above the vr6 would beat the abf in the twisties no doubt about it but hat's all things equal, with aftermarket bits and driver it will make a huge diffrerence.

If a elephant sat in one it would win as nobody is going to try to pass a elephant not with bowels like that!

VR6 without a doubt.  If you look at how they're mounted it's basically canting the motor well forward of the front wheels.

VR6s: Full of FAIL.

VR6 is much heavier in fact the abf is not much heavier than the standard mk 2 engine.
Hence it needs more downforce but once it has it's a close one.
