The Corsa would be giving away around 20/30bhp but is probably a fair bit lighter I'd imagine.
Still, I wouldn't have thought it'd keep up with the ST.

Quick look on google says st's are 7.9s 0-60, sport - 9.5.

Lets say decat, power box and 4-2-1 shaved 0.5 seconds off. that only leaves 1 second... not that much, plus a lot depends on drivers..

My 108.9bhp Corsa will do 0-60 in 8.9 seconds. Things like upgrading the wheels so you get better traction will improve the time.

with a vx inlet and decat it should be sitting at around 125bhp and fiesta ST are a bit heavier so i can believe it would keep up. i race a fiesta ST in my old sport and it did pull away but not by very much

dont no why the first 2 comments are abit sarky to be honest!

fiesta st's weight 1137kg and claim 7.9 0-60 and for 150bhp that is slow!

corsa 1.6 weigh slightly more than a saxo vtr/vts so so just under 1 tone and with roughly 120/125 bhp that will easily keep with that

so for anyone who douts me have ago of a 1.6 sport with a few mods and see for your self!

yes, I am certain when you beat him by around 20 feet between the traffic lights near you he will be really gutted.

A mate of mine is a very good driver and I have seen him keep up with much faster cars in his cars, so it is perfectly possible.....but that cant be true because CS is always right.
