Thanks Ox.
I've done a few calculations and a bit of research now and it seems my car's kerb weight is about 100kgs less than a current model Lotus Elise -

My power to weight ratio works out at 101 bhp/tonne, which isn't bad, and it wouldn't take much tuning or a swap to a more modern engine (sacrilege!) to turn one of these into something that could out-drag a fast bike.
Hmm, I wonder if I could get the motor from one of these to fit -
