XA Coupe (non-E30 content... sort of)

[mtech2_touring]

Went to a small drag meeting a couple of weeks ago with a mate. He just had his motor built and was running his XA Hard top for the first time on the quarter. He was stoked at being straight in the 10's on the first run. Only hassle now is it has to have a full cage/race seats as it was only supposed to be running around 11.5. Best for its first outing was 10.4 at 126mph. Car is street legal and regularly driven. Will try and post a vid also, as pics were minimal
Cheers,
Nick

i thought this was going to be about the scion xa. i was wrong.

everything went better than expected.

[DuMa]

226mph trap speed....I'm assuming that is a typo. Did you mean kmh?

[2mAn]

it must be kmh because thats about 130-140mph

[Massimo]

Yeh it would be 226km/h Don't see that thing hitting 330km/h in 10sec. lol. As much as the XA is awesome the car has always seem way to big to me. But my dad had one when he was young and got away from the police in it lol.

Sorry typo 126mph! lololol
226 mph is a tad excessive!

And no it's not wrong to like the touring better! :up:

I agree, and I must say it is down right scary to be a passenger side in! feels like the titanic, especially after my go-kart lol

[Anony Mouse]

Theres a catch22, so fast it must run a cage, once the cage is in, it won't "technically" need it. Bummer.
