your kidding me? AX GT will piss all over a 1.4 16v and even beat a 1.6 sport.
They have 100bhp and weight around the 700-750kg mark

Will cain a 1.4 16v Corsa, even to 60 beat a GSi.
I had a race with a mate of mine who had a GT on the motorway, I was in my GSi and I left him.
They are'nt very faster after 60-70mph

yeah thought so. Still think IMO they would beat a 1.6 sort to 60 altho midrange /top end i am not sure...although the weight advantages work in its favour will it not?

Corsa (year 2000) spec's, so not on a weight bridge:
1.4 16v sport 892 kg
1.6 16v GSi 942 kg
This difference is because of the bigger brake's, stabi's etc...
Bought without climate control...
