lap time isnt too bad though... 66secs i think, same as me in the Impreza in the wet

I'll find some vids of my old corsa.... similar power and weight to the metro i think

They got faster too IIRC.

And that was his 2nd ever time there. Definately lots more time to cut off.

metro doesnt really get a clean lap in that vid though. Also those cones to stop you overtaking into the braking area probably dont help.

i thought that, 215hp in car thats prob 800kg if that, i was expecing it to kill everything on straights!

i was more impressed with the handling of it, it was outbraking and taking the corners faster then others!
