i was at crail that weekend aswell..
and yes that red saxo vts was pissing all over the scooby's
not off the lights either...about half way through the runs..where the turbos and extra torgue of the scoobs should be taking over...but they where getting hammed

saxo are one of the best handing cars around..im sure they would give a scoob a run for its money on the bends aswell

SB, I know the car was standard, wasnt it just the timing gear at Crail that you had uprated ?

(only joking, I remember seeing the slip)

LOL Its was a good 30-degrees that day too

As standard Saxo's are actually incredibly quick of the line as they don't have the torque to overcome the grip easily so you can get a lot of the power down very quickly.

impressive saxo had a good start but m3 then pulled ahead then it changed to saxo pulling past. Strange really as i thought the heavy old m3 would have had more trouble early on then when into flow had it.

the 160mph vid has been removed as not enoug bandwith on server, that saxo can hit 0-150mph in under 1mile, that was on lower boost
Si's turbo VTS did a 12.88 at elvington last year.
All the s/c one needs is some grip lol
