tbh someone who drives a 106 has no right to comment on brakes anyway.

They just look like Vectra brakes on that though.

If you signed up for email updates of the Corsa VXR on the VXR Performance website you may have got an email saying you have been granted access to be the first to see then you have to reply to an email address reserving places, on a 1st come 1st serve basis.

Robin,

Ref: your earlier post....I meant i havent seen a vxr220 or vxt220 over 280 bhp.

Hence my post about mid engined cooling.

In vx220's i don't think TMS or Coutenays have got much more than that (at present)......as for Regal? well no comment

Outside of ScotKart in a marquee, they actually had additional lighting for the 2nd group but John had already put his camera away along with the vxr haribo he grifted

I gave you one of my packets of haribo

Was a very very dark tent.

Ash tray?

Gear stick is massive, don't know who designed that.

Yes - I asked about that.

It doesn't have an ashtray apart from that. I guess a way of keeping costs down and not having a 'No smokers pack' as an option.

Could be used as a cup though

I'm not sure what John Thorne (thorney motor sport) is up to with the corsa vxr....but he posted this today on the vx220 site:-


quote:

We get 2 (corsa VXRs) in June. One is being prepped for a race car, the other will be a courtesy car along with the TB VX220


Time will tell I guess.
