I've got an idea, give the Impreza the same power to weight ratio as your Corsa....

How much does your mini lose through rusting away as you drive it?

Still feeling the effects of the massive G-forces.

no offence but did not think that due to the fact that you were spinning in 3rd so much and unable to get the power down properly that he might not of been trying due to having 4wd and wouldnt suffer the same traction issues you had

maybe its time you got your a LSD, and got the most out of your let corsa

p.s i know with a semi decent driver a let corsa is an absolute weapon, i remember the video of timruds one giving his mates impreza a very hard time

I used to always play with the hot hatches in my bfs old scooby (356bhp) pretend I couldn't keep up or not try at all (im sure they went home and told all their mates they beat a subaru) it was also quicker than his old vtr turbo which was one of the quickest in the country i have also seen a few subaru impreza 1.6 sports dressed up as STI's perfectly intercoolers and all.
But fair enough end of day i know which car i'd rather have

Why does this annoy you so much??

Last post got scrapped because people were questioning the rediculous claim.

I hate people shouting their mouths off about beating standard cars in their tuned cars I have beef so what are you going to do about it

ps. id rather own the subaru

It's just any time somebody posts say..

I beat a XXXX in my corsa today there is always the 'brigade' saying I would rather own the XXXX though...And you lie?? he wasn't trying??? your making it up etc etc...

It's only a post saying I beat this....not what car he would rather own...

I would have the scooby too but thats not the point

Its not them saying that, its the way they go about saying it...like they achieved sonmething....1st time its ever happened etc .

tbh im surprised you condone people saying they raced a Audi TT to 130mph on a public road as surely thats worse than me saying its a load of tripe
