... lots, actually. :)

A 210 Audi S3 first. My mates car; he had his missus with him. Pulled a fair few car lengths on him up until well into sixth gear.

A Mk4 Golf R32. Another mates. All even from crawling pace until top end of fourth.

A Merc C36 AMG. A few car lengths behind him coming off a round-about, up alongside him and even by somewhere in fifth gear.

A modded Galant VR4. Sweet traffic light GP with this one! He told me his car eats Evos, before fluffing his first gear change and giving away a car length or so. He couldn't gain anything on me from then on!

And all this in a car with leather, air-con, air-bags, leccy sun roof, after-market speakers and a full complement of seats and interior trim. Just imagine what it could do without all that...

Willy wave over. :wink:

never ever known anyone with a gti-6. i think theyre boring to look at personally - but ive heard so much good stuff about them as drivers cars its unreal. and not exactly slow in a straight line either. top marks to u zollo, keep sticking it to the bigger cars :) perhaps thats why the british love a hot hatch so much - its the annoying little brother thats the true underdog. except they usually win. :)

Have u got ur plate on it matt??

Zollo
20-05-2008, 12:37
Nope, plate is R769 BHP. I'm often battling my way around town, so you may well spot me stressin' at yet another set of lights. :x

ahh, will keep an eye out for ya. But ur right, traffic lights round by ur flat r just stupid! Hardly have to leave 1st gear before u reach another set. Especially in urs.... 1st gear goes on forever on the gti6s' don't they?

Zollo
21-05-2008, 09:57
Yup - 42mph in first, so I could actually drive round town without bothering my left arm and still break the law! Although I may make a bit of a racket doing it. :oops:

Have to agree, they are brilliant cars, I have had two of them! One was cammed, chipped, full decatted blueflame exhaust, K+N, bilsteins all round etc and that one was unbelievable! The other one was standard ish lowered and on 17's and that one wasn't quite as good!

The pic is of the quick one!!
