If I can manage to find it, or if anyone else has access to old Auto Actions, find the report on the Winfield Triple Challenge where they ran a few of the V8's over the 1/4 mile.
I seem to recall Gardiners car running an 11.9 and think Seto managed an 11.1 at about 127mph (204km/h).
Now having a little experience with some very fast road cars that we have raced at Eastern Creek, an 11.1@127mph would place a 0-100km/h time around the high 3 to low 4 second mark depending on initial traction. I would think low 4's on average would be about the mark for the V8's concidering they are not set up to be quick off the mark.
But as I said, if anyone can find the actual Auto Action report it would help.
