seriously, learn to use what power there actually is.. try keeping up as much momentum through corners, you'd be surprised just how quick cross country a 1.2 nova can be.. it will never win a traffic light grandprix

to put it into perspective... one night i drove a 1.2 std carb 4 speed nova on std wheels, tyres, suspension... 75 miles in 55 mins, and none of it was on motorways.
