    Willy vs 2.0 XE Corsa

    Outcome of a race between these 2?

    A mate of mine has just dropped the old red top 2.0 16v in his Corsa and is certain he will do a Willy.......is he right?

    what reg is the corsa? the newer ones are heavier.... have a look at the stats of the new 1.8 corsa and do a bit of creative thinking for ball park figures

    YOU MAY BE SURPRISED.. ive had comprehensive ttesting sessions against a 2.0l nova... there quick.. but im quicker... at higher speeds the red top will crawl past...however thatss due to mine being slow top end..a normal hybrid / willy should kick a$$

    The XE'd novas and corsa's are fast.

    suppose it all depends how, and if, each car is modded... certainly if the XE'd hybrid is running a standard ish or average suspension setup the willy would piss on them round any bends


    they are nippy though, but mainly because they're so light... well the nova especially.. still sheds though

    The 2.0 Novas/corsa are quite quick I'd say maybe quicker than a zorsted willy but will get spanked by a good hybrid
