The engine bay looks like it has a 2 litre with big carbs and nothing asthmatic.

she would know not to pull the handbrake up then.
the nova would be more than capable of taking a corner at reasonable speed due to it's uprated suspensionand carrying that speed out of the corner.
she's just losing a lot of time everytime she pulls it up.

She won in any case
