All depends what your management does dont it really and mine does everything that yours dont Quater will be a low 12 if not a 11. Here is a slip from pod of the Isacc hunt nova at pod cracking a 12.492 and that has less power:-

*Yawn* friends with Vibrio are we. Someone can't obviously see people with different tastes.

Good way to show what an un-imaginative nob jocky you must be. I mean, we must not change anything to any cars for fear of others putting it down We can';t have anyone who styles their cars for THEMSELVES now can we. I mean, of course, its only my car, my money, and my taste, but dont let that information wirrrrr into that bread filled brain.

Hmmmm coming from you, please, dont make me laugh



why do you assume that everyone tha dislikes you or your bonnet is a friend of mine. is that the level your logic gets too.

Am I right in thinking a standard 20xe in a standard Corsa (i.e not stripped etc) would run mid 15s quarters?

it should run low 15's to high 14's

Steve - i tried to get lined up to race you last year in my corsa (greeny/blue thing with white wheels)

Was early last year, think you were runing low 14's i was running mid 14's

Whats your email..... it would be great to beat that bloody car once (when my corsa is back up and running) Im 3-0 done from dave whooping mt ass in my old Supra

Have you not gained (the car, not you!) a bit of weight tho.... heard stories of ICE etc..... stories of NOS.......

My 1.6 Nova did a quarter in 14.065 @ 101.92.

Is that the quickest time any user here has done in their car?

Cars in progress or speculation not included

I'll hopefully be beating that soon, I now have a quaife atb diff on order, should have launch control sorted and a few other bits
