Tbh. As much as I love your car Ben, and your a nce enough person. At risk of not sounding cool, that's stupid speeds. My 130 was stupid enough, and I haven't gone near it since, that what whole different legue

Why are you even getting involved>? By doing so you're also spamming. I gave my opinion and it was finished...I've met Ben and his decent enough guy, which is why I don't want to see his hard work wasted.

I've done over 160 in a Nova and it didn't feel unstable at all, wasn't anywhere near this spec either.

Top speed runs aren't too much of a problem, you're not doing it for too long. If everything is tight it's not a problem, on a open road.

I'm not police, was giving my opinion, which is what the site is for.

What's your problem, you can't just drop it?

Any issues pm me. Not bothering to reply here anymore. I'm a little to old for squabbles.

170+ in a Corsa i don't think i'd have the bottle TBH.

I used to regularly have my XE Corsa on the limiter in 5th (138mph on sat nav) and that was more than fast enough for me.
