extreme power is needed from the LET to take the corsa through the barrier that is wind resistance and road resistance

at the end of it all, the aerodynamics at high speeds plays the most vital part in top end speed.

and as you all know thats why the Tigra has higher topend than the 1.6 sport corsa. Corsas are bricks at the end of the day.

yup, like 2-3 mph faster. At around the 120mph mark, thats a significant increase.

if a corsa and tigra were fitted with identical 400bhp LET's, the tigra would probably be able to manage 7-10mph more than the corsa at top end.
