My car should beat a lupo gti shouldn't it?

Mine's lighter / more power?

I've never raced one.

How do they compare to CTR / Clio 172's?

Hmmm, i'm intrigued now.

I found the Lupo very cramped in the drivers seat and i'm not a great deal larger than yourself.

Maybe I just crossed the line between comfort and discomfort.

I can't see that 1.4 16v Lupo being able to stay with Stavs Corsa?

Saying that though, I remember I had a race with a older shape Polo 1.4 16v in my Corsa GSi and they were quite simular the GSi had a slight edge not a great deal in it.

I just spoken to steve. it's a standard 1.4 (100bhp) 16v with a scorpion exhaust. no remap, no induction, no manifold... somehow dont think it's going to have 135+bhp

must just be down to driver skill then?
