Gambit - acceleration has to be 0 for that equation to work!!

If acceleration is a known constant, you could use s = ut + 1/2at^2

That formula won't do anything for working out a 1/4 mile time! ;)

Standard 1.4 16v Sport you looking at around 18.4 - 18.8 seconds over a 1/4 mile.

Try Opelcorsa.co.za

theres a spec sheet on there. it lists the 0-100mph time but not the 1/4 mile time. If your any good at maths you can use the formula:

Speed=Distance
Time
