i was just goin down the road and a VW is harassing me, honking at me and riding ride next to my door. wants to run, and street racing isnt in my best interest, especially at night when i dont know whats waiting ahead for me....anyhow, i give in, figured id walk him, but crap....he gives me a darn good run for my money, we went from a 50mph roll and i immediately put 2 car lengths on him, but hes still hanging with me. cut it off right before 80, and never put more than 2 lengths on him. turned out he had a modded late model VR6 too. i dont know too much about Vdubs, but i had heard of a GTI VR6 and expected more out of it. so i take it as a good kill.

Re: Vw Gti Vr6
i ran one at the track a few weeks back. i was not impressed with it. it was kind of funny to he kept looking at me smirking and laughing like he was going to rape the T/A, which of course didnt happen, that car got bent over and raped badly by the T/A.
current car- 95 Trans am- bolt ons, parked and collecting dust. why? because **** it

Re: Vw Gti Vr6
i dont think thoose cars are great qrt mile cars or sprinting cars, i think they are mainly loved for the handling and "quickness" they can be made fast tho, but anything can be for the matter, as long as yo ugot enough $$$.JpX

Re: Vw Gti Vr6
something like that, 3rd gear race and i didnt even use all my 3rd gear. it was at night though, and if u get a ticket over 80mph where i live, its a hell of a fine, not to mention if they write you a racing ticket, they take your car.....so do the math. anyhow yeah, about 4seconds i guess? our cars are worthless past 3rd anyway(100mph), unless your pushing serious power. i prefer a 2nd gear to 3rd gear race though(if i cant get one from a stop). say 35-80. ill keep good momentum on the shift, and hopefully they are a slow shifter/bad driver.
