...to track their car at trax?
due to not having my corsa in time for trax.... or a week or two after trax, i didnt think the audi would be up to the standard of the other cars...so i spoke to mr marriot, who said hed have my car pass (with mkcruise.co.uk not corsasport (shamless plug)) and i jokingly suggested i trax his car.... to my amazment he said yes...
so big up robin! 
p.s. can i borrow the touch up paint in advance

like i said dude, you pay, its yours for the day
i'm sure you can handle the immense power and torque
but, if you break it, you pay 
(i dont have any paint left  )

I was tempted to track my car this year - but I need to sort the suspension out first.

id honestly keep the 2lt, the 1.6 will be a lot slower, you will miss the power! you dont notice the difference so much going up in power as you do going down. could easily sell your gsi kit as its flame red... i know someone right now whod buy it off you lol!

also thinking about a newer shell etc too though...would like to start again..
yeah i know i will miss the speed of 2.0 though... but a wee bit tuning would go along way

humm get what you mean about a new project and shell etc.... obviously a sport could be in better condition etc.... does your shell have much damage?

nah not bad, few surface bits of rust nothing major...few wee bits of welding getting done for mot.....but it's not too bad for a 93..
just fancy starting from a clean sheet again..
i love the corsa at moment, but had it 8 months so surely time for a change

I doubt any of my mates would let me. I would let majority of my mates take mine though.
I was even gonna let Sassy take it down the quarter mile at PVS...

Depends which mate it was.
a Friend of mine chris who helped me build my corsa, he can borrow my car anytime, weather its for track,drag use or just to go shopping, hes the only one i would trust............

But a woman driving down a straight piece of road is far more dangerous/risky than a man around a bendy piece of track..
