How much are we talking about being beaten by? Actually you only said kept up with. one of my old cabbys would "keep up with" foobys GTi6. It certainly wasn't faster but real world the 30bhp makes very little difference, remember you need 33% more power to be 10% faster.
There is potential that his gear ratios might of been better for that specific bout of acceleration, he might of done a gear change, he could have a remap on it, his car is potentially 50kg lighter and most corsa owners are about 7 stone wet through so could add another 50kg to the weight difference and all that shit.
