Cant believe how bad the VXR is, that is a poorly put together package.
that little side article with the corsa VXR saying it was going ot have a crack at the nurburgring R26R lap record, dont know how that'll owrk, if the meganne gets a remap+ a few choicegoodies that corsa aint touching it.

I’m sure the blokes name is waynevxr or something along those lines, have a look on vxronline if you’re interested. I can't be bothered because 99% of them on there talk sh*te. I think he failed at that attempt but don't quote me on it but I know its pushing well over 300 brake now.

is that cos they have over exagerated the power output, or is it down to the fat busting program you subjected the car to

There is a number of excuses.. Main one being DSG.. Yes DSG helps but its hardly night and day if you can drive a manual properly..

impressed with the focus ST though, it did well for it self amongst the competition there.
