Yeh I guess most should run high 14's - but the majority I've seen don't.

Guess you get different engines, just like you do on the 106's - some make nice amounts of power standard, some don't, some do 15's standard, some don't.

I have only ever run up the qtr three times, just for a laugh, in my old Astra GTE 16v...

first run was 15.4 @ 90mph
2nd run was 15.3 @90mph
3rd run was 15.2 @ 91mph

each run my 60ft time was more than 2.4 seconds, which is pants really!!!
I just couldnt stop the wheels squeeling in 1st gear....
put it down to too much torque low down!

I reckon the 106 gti pulls excellent qtrs as it has a very useable amount of power, and can nail first gear without lighting up the tarmac

I have raced my mate in his CTR before my car was remapped from a rolling start 30mph in 2nd gear
up to about 60 he pulled away but after 80 he struggled to keep in front and by 100 I was past him

I dont care how quick the 106 is, the CTR is quicker even if it isnt by much and besides people cant confuse me with a paxo although a local bakers did ask me where his delivery had got to!!

thing I loved about having leather was watching people slide about in the back when you take corners. Also found it very comfortable for back seat action with the missus.

My mate took a 3 mile journey in the boot of my 106 Gti last week. Not comfortable apparently. Especially on a Bilstein full kit

Im baffled how he managed to fit

In the corsa I found putting the front seats forward gave about enough room. GF's short and skinny so there was enough room to get her knealing on the back seat with the rest of her on the parcel shelf doing it doggy style.

I'd call my car 'a mildly tuned 106 gti' - and I reckon your car won't be that much quicker.

Hence Pod to settle it.

Luckily for me these corsa's that run on rocket fuel with parachutes to slow down dont live near me.

I'm sorry but we should all go to a track because there is no way on earth a corsa with that much power is going to be any good unless its a straight road. Unless Nasa popped round and did some work on the handling la la la la la la
