Yes and my laguna has 1200BHP
I love the fact that it is a (death trap) "race car" and doesn't even have a Roll Cage

i very much dought that you can put down that much power down through the front wheels only
should have made it 4 wheel drive

A fine example of "turd polishing"
LOL my corsa was about 260 bhp and that was stupid enough
but it did look totally stock bar a set of wheels, full interior the lot
Never been painted but has had the shell seam welded? BS alert.....
I'm not a fan of fwd either but I believe him.that tigra in the first pic(I'm guessing its the same one but now white) was doing the pod in 10's the other week.lad I know's kadett c (rwd) pushes low 11's but that's worse than my striker off the line,just has double the power with his nitrous bottle empty! them vauxhauls aren't far behind the japs once people fiddle seriously.

I'd like to se the Dyno printout & plot...
ive seen a couple of 500hp let engines but they dont come cheap
540 Bhp and drum brakes on the rear!
give credit where credit is due, there's a lot of work in there.
Does worry me the standard looking wheels and tyres and more seriously when you read the spec sheet, the fact that the brakes have not been touched.

Not sure why all the hate/snobbery?? Built for a purpose which it seems to perform well. Tonnes of work done to a high standard.

A long time ago, i read somewhere that
FWD can do up to 350BHP
RWD can do up to 500BHP
AWD can do up to 1000BHP
^^^Pretty Much Wot Liam Said^^^^
LOL so its not to everybodies taste, but hey its got heaps of power, and goes like stink, isnt that what we are all into?
dont know about these days, but the 0-60 record for FWD cars used to be held by a Corsa, bloke called Adam Kindness from memory, up scotland way, used
to go to the Crail? events etc
I havent been into that sort of thing for a few years, but mine was fun, surely people changing cars about, upping power, lowering weight, doing work
themselves is what its all about

What!? Timing slip or it never happened (unless you've chipped it to 4-500BHP)
For me, its not what the bodyshell is....
There is a lot of hard work evident in the car, and if its running 10s - He is getting something right.
I wish my Lada had 540bhp.
In fact I wish it had 70bhp
