Top Speeds of Indian Rally Cars

Hi Guys!

Whats the top speed for a Group A Esteem (carb)?
What are the top speeds achieved by these cars on special stages?

Cheers!
Tom

depends on the gearing and the stages!

Tom · 17th May 2004, 13:40

Tom · 18th May 2004, 12:04

1.0L engine doing and that too a Rally car, come on guys wake up.
The Acceleration might be there but not the top end.

but its an interesting topic nonetheless.

i heard someone telling me the RSCs can go as fast as about 120-130 flat out.

an rsc car will have better top end than the road version.

Madan its fun to see the RSC's burning the non-existing roads during the K1000's. IMO they should be able to do those speeds.

Not a chance. Street car will be quicker.

viper, street car modded will be much quicker than an RSC car....

v1p3r · 9th March 2009, 20:12

Street car modded anyday. I'm saying in all probability stock street car would be quicker than an RSC car in a straight line. Rally welding and rollcages aren't light.

Quicker...yes, higher top speed...probably not.

rsc car v/s stock esteem .

the rsc cars are completely stripped , a/c ,compressor , condensor, blower , door pads , rear power window motors , roof lining , rear seat , mats/carpeting , rear parcel shelf, etc , so all these things removed would probably compensate for the weight of the roll cage ,( give or take a coule of kgs ) , no alterations in the gear boxes are allowed , also the rsc cars are allowed to have their exhausts modded after the cat convertor, and also slight modifications are allowed on the carb , free flow air filters are allowed , so on a rsc car should have the same top end as a street esteem , atleast if not more.
