just cos the cars has a bigger engine (more tuned) doesnt mean it'll run faster, depends on the driver, you need experiance aswell as a big engine.

Greg - you are right.... but to a degree...

round a small track.... Dave (luckyB) would beat me in car with 1/2 power of mine...... but on a bigger track, the engine would play a bigger part in the equation...

And.... seeing as were talking 1/4mile, top speed etc etc..... its foookin daft to think a small block will be able to cut it....

even if a monster let fucks up a start it will still paste a 1.6 16v corsa
