about 1sec slower than cs performance stats, but when i saw you run i dont think you did anything majorly wrong like loads of wheel spin or bog down etc, good for 1st run id say-
Vehicle Year BHP 0-30 0-60 0-100 1/4 Time 1/4 Speed
Vauxhall Corsa B 1.6 GSi 1993 109 3 9.3 29.8 16.8 81.7

Me - rover 220SDi ------------16.8
Minty - Astra 2.0T ------------15.1
Ste - rover 220GSiT ----------15.02
Jon P - Leon Cupra R --------14.9
Sie - rover 220T bubble ---- 15.2
Porka - rover 220T bubble - 15.5
BRM 2.0Turbo -----------------15.5
Stiff - 214 ----------------------17.6
JimVVC - metro vvc -----------14.8
er no none of those cars should run low 14's they all are about correct
Rover T-series powered 200's are still one of the fastest standard fwd production cars over 1/4mile. Standard they do 14.9 and none of the rovers there were standard. They should all be doing 14-14.5 max
The cupra R has 260bhp and before it was re-mapped it ran a 14.5. The Astra Turbo is around 225bhp so roughly the same as the rovers and again should be running 14.5's or less.

I think you should come up to crail, £10 for non mag days on the strip, my car has done 47 runs in one day there 
plus I guarantee someone will get a "special" time

filters, full exhausts with de-cats, uprated fueling, upped boost, head work, porting, chip... all running at 215 (lowest output) to 260bhp. no those mods wont knock a second or two off the quartes, but they will knock half a second off the quarters so they should be running low 14's. The fact that they were all running over standard book figures, mostly half a second over them indicates poor conditions. Go and look at all the other forums and you will see that no1 did well except for the 4wd crew and some rwd guys.

oops my bad anyway - didn't realise he was only a 1.6 - thought he had a 2.0 16v, which 17.8 would of been rather shocking.
