A car is to drive not race on public roads. I used to be a twat and race but iv basically grown out of it now, i have the odd little go off lights but not head to head.

Sorry, but driving a car at over a ton, and racing, is driving like a dick. So by your own admission, you do drive like a dick. Think a little more about what you are saying you fucking stupid knob sucking twat.
Look up what an oxymoron is, and then realise why what you just said is an oxymoron of sorts, prick!

thats like when you have the sat nat in the car and you speedo says 70mph but the sat nav says 65mph.
I wouldn't even entertain the idea of the speeds your talking about in a saxo...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3FdnWU5ecg - thats at 40mph

iirc the sat nav is more accurate too? (somebody plz correct me if i'm wrong?)
So really you probably not even reaching anywhere near your claimed datasheet figures tbh lol. If it's lets say its reading 10% out while driving at 100mph (on private land obv) on the clocks you actually doing 90mph and the faster you go the bigger the gap will get.
The speedo will be a percentage out anyway. Here's why http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed...edirected=true

depends how its calculated really. they're not foolproof, mine variates by at least 2mph if not more, and it depends on satellites, the terrain, lots of stuff
had a nice read on it the other day

Sat nav's aren't as accurate as people think tbh
I have more trust in the accuracy of clocks in my car than that of a sat nav

You said you were racing as well, which is driving like a dick. Driving at over a ton is driving like a dick regardless. I've done and do it, and I drive like a dick. My problem is that you try and deny it.

When compared to ferrari lamborghini etc this is true.
But compared to your run of the mill 1.6 car the vts is pretty quick.
When you think all hot hatches now have 2.0 engines or turbos. The Saxo goes well for 1.6 N/A.
