0-60
Here's a question for you mathematicians.
The Rover sd1 3.5 weighs 1915 kg giving a 0 - 60 in 7.1 seconds.
If said engine is transplanted into a car weighing 1065 kg what would the 0 - 60 be?

Clutch reversing problem
Hy guys, Ive been used to using cable clutches in my cars so this is the first time I've used a hydraulic clutch. The clutch pedal seem a lot softer than what I'm used to.
