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.

Id say she was doing it more for fun than an actual race.

She won in any case
