It all comes down to what cars show up and who runs. 
I know for a Fact no matter what corsa you bring my mates Saxo will eat it alive 0-60 (can not comment on the 1/4 time as i dont know the proven time yet) 
i would come along for a laught to see how we go, be good to have a go with a few Saxo's

  as ive said, tim seems like a top bloke 
 
but does anyone seriously belive that he's just 5mph off paul johnsons time, with a shitload less power, and less aero dynamic that a fezzy

corsa is more aerodynamic surely? obviously tims speedo will over read slightly, but its still gonna be pretty quick

i'm not convinced about it tbh, its on 16s, so it will over read anyway, then its a dash which isnt made for the car etc
