shame the nova/corsa has to have an engine replacement to get anywhere, i think rules should state no engine replacements
i think rules should state steve should fuck off
there are saxos with engine transplants... the 2.0 xsara lump for example..
tis a shame a saxo has to bolt a supercharger or turbo to the lump to get any decent power

IssacHunt Blue Nova 11.8 1/4 how many saxo can even come close to that?
and i recon the Nova boys could put out a car with almost any engine size which could rape most of the saxo they bring
Chips old Standard XE Nova ran a 13.3 i would set that the bench mark (as it was just a standard Nova with a XE he had lay about thrown in) for the Paxo boys and i think most of the saxo kids will find it hard to beat that
you forget the nitrous 
my moneys on the novas. im sure there are a few novas that run high 12's too
Nah his red one wasent running NOS so
