model dervs are no where near as smokey as that TDI. The owner has mapped it to 200bhp... I cant quite remember the techy reason of this... but it often results in a trail of rain cloud coming from the back.
I think it would be a fairly even race from 0-40 between the TDI and VTS but after that the VTS will start to see a cloud of smoke

To be fair, for that to be 200 bhp, it must have well over 200 lb ft of torque too 
off the line i think the vts would still have it, but pretty obvious what the results are gonna be after leaving the start line with that much bhp + torque.

mine has well over 200 lb ft of torque as standard, 230lb ft to be precise, so if thats got 200bhp its lively to have 310 +

Yer but that shows proper power when you keep pulling at a strong rate all the way to top speed.
That saxo just shows it accelerates through first coulpe of gears quick because it weights as much as a toy car

the two / quotes replies around my posts, I don't really get it to be fair. What are the points your trying to make.
rich I'm not denying the power / torque... where did i say it was slow. I'm just saying in 3rd / 4th / 5th / 6th it's not quick enough / powerful enough to be spinning up in the dry.
