Yeah just wondered if anyone knew him through the forum...to see if the figures are estimated or fact.

Doesnt seem to have as much as Jonnyc or Hurdys car done to it and they aren't hitting below 12 seconds on the 1/4 mile.

Its one thing typing in your weight and power figures into a 1/4 mile calculator on the internet and its another actually going out there and doing it..

I would put good money on him not even dropping into the 12's..

Also, 1240kg? Mine is 1225kg and looks just a little more molested than his.. lol

Im calling BS on the weight and 1/4 figures..

1/4 mile 11.98 - I don't think so with the weight quoted. Weight would need to be more like 1037 kg. I think we would have all heard if this had been acheived for real, don't you?

....

Also, his claimed top speed of 176 mph = BS!

He might have seen that on his speedo but never on a GPS system which is far more accurate.

a 0-60 time of 4.8 seconds wouldn't give him an ET of anywhere under 13 seconds!!!!

Ha, nice find mate..  :happy2: If it was 0-100mph in 11.8 secs then yeah, but no way 1/4 mile.. Mine did  11.1 0-100mph when I did a 13/2 1/4 mile run...
NIce to see another enthusiast about and suprised if he isn't on one of the VAG forums, as he's good a good taste in mods..  :wink: Just a bit enthusiastic on his figures me think..  :grin:
You're right though JC, not quite got the atrippage of yours mate..  :signLOL:.. Also, what's the crack with the door skin removal? :confused:
