So on paper it looks good lol. That's a very good website actually. It's surprising what an R19 is quicker than!! Beats a lot of things that u wouldn't think possible Very Happy

My TD's not really a racing car. Unless it's faster than any other 19's spec wise apart from the 16v?

Sic Puppy, the TD is faster than the 1.4 and might give the SPI 1.8 a run for its money
