DC5... 7.1??? :?

Yet its lighter and has more BHP than the FN2... ooooooooook

7.1 was the figure it did in the wet by evo magazine. As that was the only official run by the DC5 by a magazine everyone else posts that figure. Obviously it can go faster

Good review of the DC5 and that FD2 sounds better and better. Cheers Dotty

Going to say those results looks wrong.

When you have all three cars there why not actualy time them instead of posting book figures!

They have the engine pics mixed up with the DC5 and the FD2.

They have the engine pics mixed up with the DC5 and the FD2.

Maybe they got the lap times mixed up as well then because of the incompetance shown :xconfused: :lol:

We also dont have 2 pot calipers & vented discs at the rear :!:
And I thought the DC5 weighed 1180kg :roll:

 

[celox performance]

The DC5 does weigh 1180kg and not 1250kg :roll:

 

[jay82]

i was messing about in work a while back and stuck the car on a truck scales we have in there and it was 1220kg, but my nct here in ireland weight it in at 1302kg???? wouldn't go by the nct, it's a money racket
