Varies, depending on who's driving it.

i thought most 2lt 16v do around 6secs standard (?), so at a rough guessing i would have thought the 8v would be around 8-7secs and the let around 5 - but like said, traction is the main problem, especially with the let

It's not really traction it's how smoothly you can get th epower down.
Turbo spool doesn't help this.
I'll say close to astra GTE times as weight is similar.
But for the LET, who knows

Mines crap to 60mph.
My 60ft times at the 1/4 mile are about 2.3 secs, which is wank!

0-60, i think mines slower now than the xe with f16 cos its a lot harder to get the power down. If this makes me a crap driver then so be it

 just gone through ALL my slips, the best 60ft ive got is 2.320 which was with the xe and f16. then loads more 2.3's with the xe and LET. Best with the LET is 2.330.

5 seconds in a LET, dont think so, where is all that traction going to come from.
2.0 16v, 6.5 for a stripped car i would have thought, probably on average low to mid 7`s, so many of you 2.0 owners on here have crammed your cars with ICE and sh1t.
2.0 8v I would have thought mid 8`s

Agree with seth, can't see a let doing 5 seconds..not standard anyway without diffs/dry road etc etc

I'd like to see what mine would get launching in second. Would not have to change gear to get to 60....
I can get the wheels turning at 60mph in about a second, just a shame the cars not doing that ROFL

steve, it seems that if anything is faster than you granny mobil you instantly shoot it down
eitherway, ive heard about a 2.0 8v doing 11s 1/4...but i cant remember where i saw it  anyone got links to this 10s 1/4 8valve??
seth - sorry, i was under the impression that majority of LETs could do 60 in 6s or so....although with an LSD im sure 5s wouldnt be problem??

the 2.0 8v Nova that your talking about - is that the one that was featured in Redline sometime last year cos that was the fastest FWD in Europe iirc? and it did have pretty low quarter mile times
