VTS/106 gti vs Bravo HGT

[Bake]

Right guys just wondering what do you think would be quicker around a track as my mate has a Bravo 2.0 20v Hgt and i'm planning on getting a 106 gti!

What we're planning to do is go to a track day when we can both afford it and see how we get on, at the moment i have a VTR and to be honest on B roads i can keep up quite well with it but obviously he pulls away on a nice straight!

I've been looking at the 0-60, 0-100 and 60-100 times and to be honest the GTI and HGT are quite even but in the real world on a track what do you think would come out on top?

[Dan]

Saxo/106 would handle better and would be just as quick if not quicker.

[okman]

i would say that the 106 gti would slam the bravo on the track, its lighter for starters by around 200kgs so it would out handle it anyway and i would say that its quicker to in a straight line to but not by a lot

[Karl]

VTS/GTI hands down

[Danr]

I would say saxo/106 as fiat don't seem to have the best reliability record.

the fiat would,but expect a saxo gti positive response as it is a citroen website your on lol

[Karl]

.......R4T, and do you think for example a Redtop 2l Corsa in a GSi shell w/ GSi suspension would outdo a VTS on a track?

because if you do, i think you need to reconsider.

My moneys on the bravo Maximum Speed 132 Acceleration (0-60) 7.9secs whereas the GTI is Maximum Speed 127 Acceleration (0-60) 8.7 secs

[Karl]

where are you getting 0-60 of 8.7 seconds?

also, who does 120mph + on a track in a Fiat or citroen?

The test drivers

The specs are listed on wisebuyers, http://www.wisebuyers.co.uk/motoring...3%29/PE003160/

[Dan]

The saxo/106 will handle loads better and will be alot lighter, therefore the saxo/106 would win.

[James]

power/weight ratio guys.. think about it.

[makaveli144]

it works out similar gti is 126
bravo 130bhp per tonne , approx i dunno if i worked it out right.

i did a sprint against my mate in a 2.0 turbo zaffira 200bhp standard

power/weight ratio all the time

Who's fucking Tony? its Fix it again tomorrow!!!

That has a much wider appeal.......

Anyway the Bravo is abit lardy and not one I'd go for if you want some fast fiat action its the mk1 GT Punto or Coupe 20vt....

[dannygti]

gti/vts no problem, 0-60 in 8.7 i dont think so matey, all these cars that are supposed to be just as quick or quicker just dont stand a chance this is what i have noticed through prvious experience's.
my summary= gti/vts would kick ass
