search google video for 2.0 Novas and ya get a couple, few of them going up Santa Pod and Crail and a few filmed from in car.
Here is a clip of mine going round the Nurburgring
Its 30 meg though and you will need to most probably register to view the clip, well worth it though

Also if you look through the videos you will find others of my car being used properly ;)
A few vids at www.daxtek.co.uk (http://www.daxtek.co.uk) - One lap of Castle Combe and then two of the car passing a Subaru. The Nova is running TB's

An old Viper?? Jonlem should know.
It was a new Corvette.
I have more vids of my laps that other people took but I haven't even seen them yet, Sadly me and Keith didn't have a camera in when I done the 8.55 which is a shame as it was the smoothest lap I had done all week.
When you know the lines and the where the correct turn ins are you can get round there very smoothly, wether I'll remember what I was shown when I go back who knows, but being that I'll have 400hp I would hope even cruising round I'll manage a sub 9 again lol

Jonlem lovely video and pretty good lines too!
I love the background rattle of the perspex windows lol
But my god did that car need a diff, the spinning up of the inside wheel would've annoyed the hell outta me :eek:

I've posted this on another thread b4, but here's my 1.6 16v on TB's, in case u ain't seen it :)

It had a quaife ATB mate, thats both wheels spinning lol
No way would I attempt to drive that hard round there without one
I've sold my nova and gone back to mk2 escorts, currently building a group 4 rs2000 with 400h/p yb (off gas I might add ;)
Here is a clip of my car on nitrous amongst some other mates cars

Then it is true 2.0l nova's dont handle!!! that's absolutley fookin shocking!!!

Why wouldn't they handle?
I'm going a lot harder than it looks, although I was pushing too hard lol
I was only on 175lb front springs too
I believe small block novas should handle better but a equally sorted big block wouldn't be that far behind, depends on what circuit to what suits best IMO
