Did quite a few runs! but the battery on the camera kept dying! This is the only one we managed to get. We timed it at 7.3 seconds but looking back at the video i've timed it at 7.75 seconds. You can time it for yourself from the video if you like.
Sorry about the quality of the vid, tis a bit rubbish.

Just cause you seem to know your stuff about engines and cars...thought there must be something behind it. There so many old school hot hatches i'd like to get, but can't afford any at the moment! 205 Gti, gd choice. are they 130 Bhp??

yeah 130 bhp, not the most powerfull but unbeatable wen it comes to handling, probably completely stip the engine and et a better flow of air and re map and that will do as i want to mod my corsa and the racing is just sumhing for fun,
reason i now my stuf fis my dad own a commercial vehicle workshop and i work part time there so i learn a bit from that and visiting shows etc.

I fail to see how it's being picky. 60 on the clock is not 60 actual.

i agree with vibs, 0-62 you need to do, which will be 3rd gear for you
but none the less still a nippy little motor
