Hey junior long time no see.
I've got to agree why do they bother, especially the one's with 1.2 8v's...
at work the other day this guy with a 1.2 8v was cussing the 1.0 saying haha even I have a bigger engine than that... I had to correct him that the 1.0 has more power than his shit heap. Which I may add he fucked up by pulling a handbrake turn in the staff car park.
1 word - Chav.
I agree with others though, I used to race things in my corsa for the reason I wanted to see them gun it - not because I felt I had a chance.
Now in my Gti, I don't really race

^^^ oh also someone else was sitting at the table... and the chav said 'How does the 1.0 have more power?'
this other person said 'Because its lighter'.
I just laughed at them both and explained it was due to number of valves per cylinder - you could see it wooosh straight over their heads.
The guy who said it was because its lighter then said how even his 1.3 8v fiesta gets beaten by 1.25 fiesta's therefore it must be fucked 
Once again I explained the valve thing and they once again looked puzzled. I hate people like that

if you get the ones that change colour and take a wiper off you can beat an M5 to 200mph

Well I wouldnt let a 152 focus get away from me lol.
I normaly get people trying to race me. How I laugh when those pathetic vtr's pull along side reving. Would someone please tell these idiots some corsa's have 16v 1.6 engines. One guy leaned out of his saxo and shouted "Get something with power".
BTW had my fair share of focus drivers get up my arse, and then ive floored leaving them to eat my dust.

In one day on way to burning Bournemouth…..first of they tried racing me - 152BHP Focus Zetec. Then another one tried it on with my bro……Ibiza Cupra running Cupra R ECU and bout 185BHP and then mate Adams STI 365BHP!
I mean please! What is the point!!!!
(not a slur on all corsa drivers just the chumps that have to be embarrassed!)
can I ask what sort of chump uses his registration number as a username 
also a 152hp focus thats not very quick is it?
