Oh, and did I hear it does 0-60 in 5.9 seconds? How does that compare with a similar power ED30?

I have been trying to figure out my 0-60 time from Santa Pod.. This calculator is pretty accurate in terms of the times I achieved on the day.. And this says that I was at about 4.6 0-60.. I think a high 4 second run would be achievable in reality..

So, are Ford being coy and understating it... or is it a bit lardy and not capable of more?

Thats pretty much what Steve Sutcliffe said in the Autocar review..

To be honest, it should (and will) be faster than that.. 300hp & 330ft/lbs.. Not sure how heavy it is though?

I'm looking at the RS as a blank canvas, its pulling those figures as standard, £500 on a remap alone should see a marked improvement, and although Johnnys car is an exception, I'd imagine the majority of modded ed30s would struggle with the RS as standard never mind with a remap.
