Vauxhall C20LET

My mate was in the light green LET Corsa which just beat the Tigra at TOTB.

Some of them are just stupidly quick.

Does your mate know of a red one round our way? It might've been your mate that owned me, i am green/red colourblind:p

Just to make it clear guys i'm not interested in buying one, but I can't fault this Corsa I saw at all. I'm willing to bet mine corners better but he must have a lot of fun on straights.
 
They'll make whatever you want them to really. :cool:

There's a guy in the Westfield Club who's running 1Bar of Boost giving somewhere around the 300Bhp mark, 2 Bar would gives him around 450Bhp. Could go more but in something as light as a Westfield :eek: :eek:.
In the previous car (Astra) but engine at a lesser older spec, he had it at over 500Bhp mapped on Nitrous and Race Fuel for TOTB.... 128mph terminal :cool:

At a guess, that'll be my mate Neil's car.

Dont think he has much choice on where the air filter goes, geusing its a forward facing turbo just behind it?

There's not a great deal of room in the engine bay and with the large custome manifold it's either sticking it there or out the top of the bonnet :)

The turbo is indeed straight behind the filter.
 
Why did he choose a Tigra? Are they lighter than Novas and Corsas? They certainly don't look better.
 
Tim - I'm not sure if he's associated with a red one at the moment? Must have been some other weapon :p

Orange Peel - yeah, see him out and about quite a bit round here. He does like his LET's like that purple Nova he had with the same plate. He's helped build a few for others too.

lol, you think he's bothered about looks! It's not about looks, in ANY way. Hence the pink lines, and pink interior.

It's about making the fastest road legal FWD Vauxhall.

Corsa's weight about the same, Nova's are slightly lighter.

It's a very quick car and he know's his stuff!

Great overall community tbh. It's not about looks or 4WD/RWD (even though they know they're better) it's just about messing with cheap Vauxhalls :)
 
More likely to find a less rusty knackered Tigra for cheap than a Nova really, so does make some sense.

doesn't mean you got drive around looking like that though. Nothing wrong with looking good and going fast lol.

I think you're totally missing the point.

It's supposed to look the way it does! Performance is the only important thing. Plus how's it going to sound to your mates when you've been beaten by a Tigra with pink viper stripes, interior and roll cage.

The owner of the Tigra has a very nice everyday car and a works van that looks like it could win a show and shine competition.
 
A boy on course, has a green corsa. 340+bhp iirc. Saw some videos of it, and to say its fast on a straight line is an understatement. Says it it can't handle worth a crap though.

Oh, so it's okay for the car to look like crap because he's made the effort to make it look crap? :rolleyes:

Ironically, I bet he'd laugh himself to death at the guy who built this, desipte them both being the same boat! -

Yet again missing the point, he aint trying to make the car look crap. He knows it looks crap, well I assume so, he is trying to make a bloody quick cheap car he more than likely doesn't care about the looks.

The pink stripes etc is more a tounge in cheek thing.

Exactly right :)
