hard to say, never done anything like this before. Lets see what interest we get then go from there, speaking to Max P and see what they think.

dont really think Audi is good choice....
Its not the most well know 'grudge match' kinda car is it
Really has to be something in the same price range etc to be a bit of a challange...
Corsa vs........ Audi what? A3/A4/S3/S4/RS4/RS6 etc..... no thanks
2.0 16v corsa are nippy.... thats all. They arent all that special these days.... a high 14sec 1/4mile and suspect handling isnt too favourable

dont think you should do Honda's as i think they will have the upper edge.
Dont do Audi as only RS4 etc.. will turn up and win in reverse
astra sounds good ,
but honestly think you should redo Saxo's as thats was like 4 years ago and they may have better things now just like corsa sport has , give them chance to reclaim the title.

Good point but it was only about 2 1/2 yrs ago iirc.
Might be an idea, and might struggle to get anyone to 'play'

I'd be interested, but will only end up getting wasted as my corsa is still pretty standard...

yeah but still 2 years is allot of time in the tunning game ,
its the only one that would get a real big turnout now , and how good would it be beating the saxo boys twice

Well I'm not bothered who its up against... I'd be playing against the clock, trying to set better times for myself.... if I happen to beat who I'm upagainst then thats a bonus!
One request though. Can we have top speed as well as 1/4 mile. Brunters would be my number one choice, but if we are using Datron, you cant have too many cars as wiring them up does take a while, and you do want a few runs!

there are a couple of turbo's on there plus some tuned racing's on there but compared to the 2lt on here, dont think they would stand a chance IMO

Get intouch with Redline, as they deffo use the Datron gear and Brunters, which is the top combo! They seemed up for the vaux vs ford thrash that was banded around a while back...
