4.70

I thought it seemed accurate enough too. The standard corsa sport time seemed accurate, as well as others.

doesnt take into account gearbox ratio!

i'm not saying the results are wrong but a Vaux gearbox maybe built for acceleration while a Ford's for terminal speed, so its bound to have a degree of inaccuracy
