Title: Black 07 Plate GTI leaving Trax
Post by: B3n on September 09, 2011, 12:10:44 pm: Was spotted by my old man leaving trax. Apparently he tried to race my father who was in his E63 AMG :stupid: :stupid:

What were you thinking man!!!! don't know what remap you've got? but you got no chance against a 6.2l V8 :signLOL:

My dad did say your car looked nice though :happy2: even if it was getting smaller in his rear view mirror.

Massive means heavy, power to weight plays a huge bonus to the golf.The v8 weighs nearly twice as much as the golf, 460bhp v8 again say 320 in the golf and a weight advantage.. Not much in it..

love the sound of them though, I had a run in with one the other day,58 REG and I wasn't left behind put it that way!!.. Nice surprise actually..

s3 is simular performance as a comparrison, abit slower but not much in it, not as much as you think.
