Which would win, only reason i ask is coz i was traveling to otley and he was rite behind me. as in
|HIS CAR| - |MY CAR| - - - - - - - - |ANY OTHER CAR|
he wanted to play, so i followed him home and asked him what he had underneath he said 1.4.
just wanted to know who would win, coz next time he is out i might have a play..
ive been on the net and the only powerfull ones i found were
1.4 Sport 16v (100bhp)
1.9 TDi (100bhp)
the normal 1.4 and 1.4 SE had 60 - 75 bhp.
so back to my question..
1.4 Polo (75bhp) or 1.2 Corsa C (75bhp)
??

the 1.4 has more torque it will be quicker i recon. he also doesnt state which year the car is coz the engines have changed over the years and the fastest polo is the 1.6 16v gti they are rapid

I think he's right, in me sri i still have to pick fairly slow cars to win! nothing special when ur ragging it to 70 pr 80mph 
anything under 10secs 0 - 60 is slow

lol.......at college my mate had a 1.6 8v polo, and it was a pile of crap.
he couldnt pull away from a lil 1.4 8v corsa, so i doubt the 1.4 8v cud beat a 1.2 16v. Although dependant on drivers capabilities and the type of course ur racin on, it might be close

just wanted to know who would cum first, coz next time he is out i might have a play..

p.s corsa 1.2 16 V is probably a bit faster to 60 because it is lighter than the polo

The diesel feels faster cos it has the same torque as the 1.8 sri, but it isn't faster than the 1.2, they're about the same, cos the revs on the diesel only go up to 5k

see Red_Sxi knows what he's on about.
You think its faster cause its got the turbo, so the force makes it feel quicker. it aint at the end of the day
