          Someone posted this on Funk HQ yesterday, it is hilarious.

          Time to buy a Corsa methinks, could do with a track torpedo like that...

          Though I reckon that forum could do with a few more rooms, it hasn't quite got enough yet...

          It might not be a 5 pot or an S2... but at least I have a 20v Turbo in my life again.

              Works now...

              Its a PH thread about the VXR one above anyway! What a tool!

                44 individual rooms? Slightly excessive, particularly as some of them have less then 10 posts in them...

                Just seems a lot to me.

                  0-60 in 9.3 seconds... WOW! I gotta get me one of them Corsas with the flat rear seats to save weight
                  "Like why you crawl flat across a frozen pond so as not to break the ice".
                  Complete lack of understanding of the idea of pressure or weight distribution.
                  What a ****.

                  0-60 in about 6 with the seats up... must put them flat and see what difference it makes! 5s, maybe even 4,5s, could be possible. Sod the bigger turbo, remap and IC, fold the seats flat, that's the key!

                  Harsh but fair.

                          Bah! If he said I fold the seats down to lower the cg and improve weight distribution he'd still be made fun of.

                          hehe, in college I was in the back of a pick-up with about 20 engineers. As we approached a speed bump one of the brighter ones said "Everybody stand up, so we are lighter and clear the bump" now his *** ripping was instantaneous.
