    2.0 16v v mk2 172

    Took mate to buy his 172 yesterday and after the long journey back we decided to have a few blats on our favorite duals to which he was abit shocked that i was on his bumper on both runs with him bouncing off limit in every gear when i wasnt!!!

    Anyways second was the fairest so il go on about this one. Off the roundabout we go with him in front, second gear straight on the power, no gap gained or lost, third gear the same but 4th gear and i was pulling him in, he hit the breaks as we were running out of road, abit earlier that i than i wouldve hit them but i dont think he liked the fact i might have got level or eved past him!!!

    All in all i was pretty pleased and if my old mucker stevo underestedmated the 2.0 mk1s before he doesnt now!!!
