Too many factors involved... Driver ability, tyres, clutch condition, weather, suspension set-up, i could go on. I would go for the fiesta after 2nd, the zetec lacks torque, but has got the power to push on once within the proper rev-band

Also, i dont like saxo's...and the gearbox would probs poo its pants!

As mentioned there are many factors involved, but I would say the Fez is the quicker of the two.

mate, the way to go is corsa redtop, but i can guarantee the vtr is quicker seen as being a lighter car and my mate smoking a zetec s in a vtr, but if u have no choice but a saxo then vts is the way to go, they are rapid rapid cars with alot of torque and decent top speed, ppl are even tuning them to beat tuned redtops nowadays

personally, nowadays i think its all about 4 types of street cars that are stepping it up levels, the saxo vts, corsa redtop, 106 gti's and the polo's with vr6 transplant, seen as every1 is doing it nowadays. but im sure the vtr is quicker than the fiesta but u never know wat they have done so u know, hope u make up ur mind dude and gd luck

hehe...and soon, there will be an 8v terroroising the streets, with a noise to make even random pedestrians randomly cum their pants (even women) :lol:

f**k Saxo's. I managed to outdo one down my local fast stretch of rural road, and i wasnt even tryin. So much for being 'the best handling small car'...pfft. :coffee:

i heard that it was the same gearbox in the 1.1 saxo as the vtr is this true?
and surely the gearbox will give up after a while of getting hammered! :lol:

Surely the 1.1 gearbox wouldnt be able to cope in a vtr. Wouldnt it have to be a lot stronger to withstand the extra power?

im probably wrong :lol:
