was a 1.4 now a 1.4 still erm.... ok ok i admot its a 1.6 16v! lol! some1 swapped the engine without me looking honest! corsa120, my runs were wank lol! did u see my 16.6? my reaction times were shit, my second run i totally cocked up the start(the mid 17 second one) the 16.6second i found out how to wheel spin lol! im getting there tho, not as easy as it looks!! recon, as do a few people ) with time and practice i should gte consistant low 16's and the odd high 15 second run!

yeh lol told ya though even a standard gsi was running 17.4 at 80mph, dont get upset this is why i said a standard gsi would keep up with ya, BUT and it is a very big but you would win everytime
well done to all who ran though hope it was what u expected
although i did see a few gte's run a very low 15.1,2 and they was practically standard cos i went an asked a couple of lads who owned them
i was curious
still looks like nova's rule though

yeh Basically I'd take whatever times u got with a pinch of salt... The heat was affecting a lot of people's times...
Square only managed 15's in his 2.0 16v Throttle Bodied corsa... He was hoping for 13's... So broster just give it another go when its cooler mate.

Not the heat, not lack of grip its a lack of driver ability.
Jr's run was very good, but I think he can put a 15.2 in with a bit of practice.

Oh, I managed a 16.1 in a standard GSi a couple of years ago.
That was on a airfield in the dry with no pressure.
I'm the don
