    nyahaha. Once drove a crosswind going to boracay before, pedal to the metal na, di pa rin ako makahabol sa convoy doing 130 kph. I was the slowpoke doing only 100 kph during that time. They radio'd me to catch up, but I told them na maxed out na ang kakayahan ng crosswind.

    Yup... convoys are the biggest problem for the Crosswind... overtaking, not so much... I"m of the mind that, if you can't overtake the guy in front of you, he's going fast enough, just sit back behind him and relax.

    The Crosswind is one of the elite few whose quarter-mile time is equal to or even shorter than its 0-100 km/h time...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    depends, max torque based on the manual is at 2300 rpm so shifting the m/t at this rpm can produce a standard result same as the a/t most probably but if the m/t driver chooses to shift at higher than 2.3K rpm then that will be more faster i'm sure.


    and i totally agree...this going to be the battle of slow mo and quality of smoke :rockf:

    Ano bang average speed ng isang kabayo? Ano kaya mas mabilis sa sprint 0-100 meters, kabayo o crosswind?

    Or the fast human runner of 100 meter dash is 10 seconds.

    Mas mabilis ang human kaysa kabayo sa 100 meters.

    Crosswind...accdg to Niky....takes 30 seconds to go 100kph.

    Go figure how many seconds the Crosswind takes for the 100meters You are good in math.

    From a standing start up to 100 meter distance, assuming the crosswind is running under constant acceleration, according to my rough computations (please correct me if I'm wrong)... The crosswind would reach 100m in 14.696 secs..

    Now this is just a theoretical computation, headwind / tailwind, weather conditions and road surface conditions are not included, these factors could greatly affect the vehicle's velocity and acceleration..

    Also, I doubt that the runner and crosswind, undergoes constant acceleration..hehe... So in essence I think this figure is flawed, just posted it anyways..

    Acceleration isn't constant... 100 meters should take around 6-8 seconds.

Friendly racing between an MT and AT Crosswinds
