NikCFC (23/07/2012)[hr]Thanks,  it will probably make around 800hp+, at it's current condition never met the strip that's why the drag tyres are new. Not sure about it's current weight but the carbon parts I made reduced the total weight by 100kg.

The carbon is good, but I'm on about With the drag tires etc etc, it looked far nicer before I'd prefer the carbon to be painted

Best looking Corsa D ive seen!

If it's got a lot of power then you're gonna be steering alot to keep it in a straight line.
