Damn, still not too bad considering the pedigree of that car.
I'll bet the sound was intense.

How can you only run a 13.8 with the amount of mods you have

Full stage 2 and an intake? Then suspension and exterior mods? Sounds fine to me...the 13.8 that is.

:thumbdown:
FWD plus a lot of torque and all seasons? First gear was all wheel spin and on the 13.8 run I actually bogged the launch. All my other runs of the day that I didn't bog the launch and lowered my tire pressures, the runs were in the 14's at 102. With a set of DR's I'd be able to do mid 13's I'll bet, but I don't have AWD like you.
Besides, I only drag race when I get new mods and I had the dogbone mount so I decided to try it. I'd much rather autox.:smile:
FWIW, I'm not trying to start anything, but have you ever tried to launch a GTI at the drag strip? A Stg 1 or Stg 2 preferably? They're hard cars to launch properly because of the abundance of torque at such a low rpm.
Yup. Honestly I may trap a little higher now because I had my cam replaced after that run since I was getting fuel cuts afterwards. But my boost ever since I had Stg 2 (20,000 miles) would always be at 20, then go to 17, then back up to 19 or 20 and so on. With the new cam it goes to 20 or 21 and steadily drops as the rpms increase. It feels a little quicker so I wouldn't doubt if it had a 103 trap in it, but I probably won't go to the drag strip for awhile.
Is that a serious statement? I can't tell if you are joking or not.

I have an idea! Let us make a group buy where like 365 of us all chip in and buy that W12 Twin Turbo 650 HP GTI prototype so we all get a day in a year to kick some serious but out there...anybody? :drool:

Luiii...lurking the GTI forums. :lol:
I had a sneaking suspicion he actually thought the GTI is a hard car to drive, lol.:iono::iono::iono:

No it's a serious statement. I mean with the proper tires and what not launches will improve, but trying to get decent 60' times is relatively hard IMO. But again, tires, track conditions, and driver skill are all relative.
Not a hard car to drive, but to launch. I just said that statement because it's almost as Jamie was trying to insult my time. Sorry I couldn't get a better time.:iono:
Again, I'd rather be autox'ing than drag racing. But back on topic.
Sorry for thread jacking.
