seems nova's rule the 1/4 mile with 13's, 14's and 15 second times

saw jr's 1.4 16v 136 bhp pull a mid 15 secs @ i think 85 mph
saw brosters 1.6 16v 138bhp pull a mid 17 secs at 70 somat mph

all i saw from corsasport although probably was more just dint know who they was

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
