Standing mile 175.6 km/h (109 MPH) end speed

[Vekke]

I was testing how my lupo goes the standing mile last weekend.

First run was 171 km/h and second run result 175.6 km/h. Car would have gone a lot faster but that is just a mile and gear changes eat lot of time in my lupo.

Lupo was faster than "150 hp" Audi A4 1.8T. Of course you dont know if there was any problems with that audi but other 1.8 T are also pretty close to my speeds.

Fuel consumption of that tank was 2.69 l/100km. There were also some pre testing accelerations on the tank, but most was highway and city driving.

That is great fuel consumption...awesome actually, even more-so since you were on it heavy for a couple of miles at least.

On the exact opposite end of the scale this car most definitely drank more fuel than you did, but had a bit quicker top speed though: Ford GT sets standing mile record at 257 MPH | Fox News

Even the 1/2 mile is something: Video: Hennessey Ford GT's 212.9 mph standing 1/2 Mile world record - Top Speed interesting that it took 1/2 mile to get that extra 45mph. Just shows how much wind resistance they are dealing with at those speeds I guess.

The Event must of been a blast, lots of fast beautiful cars. Your car must of gathered a fair bit of attention with its weight reduction and the areo mods, not to mention its fuel economy.

2.69 l/100km is spectacular ! under 3L per 100k, amazing.

That Ford GT is insane fast. The Bugatti V has 1,100 hp Just a measly 900 hp short of that GT.
