Your corsa also is special. Should be on the tv program HEROES. It has special ability's that other standard corsa's dont

Im sure he would do well, but beating 4WD in a corsa is going to be hard work.

But your car IS special... and that is silly power to weight ratio...

Have you ever worked the bhp/weight ratio..

and compared it to any stock sports car?

power is nothing without control.

my corsa will easily underbrake most things on the road and is such a precise car to drive. underbraking things and having so little weight is a massive advantage in corners.

The big disadvantage with my car is that it hits peak power at 8100 prm in 5th at 125-130 mph and doent have huge torque to pull it up hills. so it will be outdone by a 1.9 tdi unless I give up before 120 mph

Not difficult when the corsa has about 6 times the power to weight ratio.

When driven properly I dont get much wheel spin, an ask muppet he will tell you that traction isnt a problem unless your trying to pull off at 7k and sidestep the clutch. Still needs more power anyway which it will do by next years events.
