My mate recently upgraded is little nifty swifty 1.0 to a 1.4 C2. ever since then iv been getting abuse from C2 owners since he started a topic on how to beat my 1.6. Most folk have replied with dont bother unless you have a vts but most of them are coming out with comments like must be pretty stupid to buy a corsa, or a C2 would win weather he was faster cause obviously a C2 is better. What should i do about this, i have raced him countless times(on non public roads of course) and he just wont shut up about my great little pocket rocket being apparently shit.
