Thought i should put this in it’s own thread. Vid #1 sti vs the gti: he hangs for a gear. Fourth starts pulling pretty hard, then fifth it’s all over. civic vs gti: i start about 3 cars back, they go, i jump in. Shift gently in to fifth at the GTi’s, then just skate on by. Vid #2 sti vs civic: pretty close in third (i assume he’s spinning). Once i shift into 4th he just starts PULLING. I need to work on timing my shifts properly… if i shift too close to redline, it seems to fall out of boost more than if i shift at about 6700. ---

Looked like scary fun. The cold temps should be a no brainer for no racing… No traction and fast cars is a bad thing. I couldn’t even drive my car spiritedly on monday because it would instantly break loose, anything other than 4th and 5th gear with more than 1/4 throttle was scarry. ---
