Its not that fast down the quarter mile either, My old saxo, R7VTS ran 14s at York. At least im sure it did lol, It was a while ago.

Dear dear me. All that time and effort just to do burn outs. :S

Not even quick in a straight line.

The idea was great but it needed a lot more work to make it fast. I dont know why any 'performance' rwd car is ever lacking an LSD.
I think the suspension needed more development to get it right too..

I like the idea of an engine like that in the saxo, can't complain about Jap Crap when you're sleeping with the enemy lol.

I also like the bye bye scooby remark... when 100% standard STi PPP's run easy 13.2 second quarters with the correct launch (some standard STi's in the USA have done 13 flat), so nothing special at all about the saxo's sprinting abilties I'm afraid.

Suppose its a laugh to drive though.
