yeah, there’s also a stock turbo gti running 12.5’s… or was… till this summer…

but its not too common, seeing 265Whp on a 3400lb car(race weight w/driver) isn’t going to hit 12’s very often.

No, im not sure. It was dark, and the car was silver and sounded catless. I could have swore it was a hatch…hmmm I dunno.

I wasn’t a good run tho, I was at a light and I didn’t think he was gonna run, he went tearin off the line and by the time I realized (radio was on…) he was 2 car lengths ahead…I say he smoked me cause I didn’t pull on him…I think he kept walking actually.

I mentioned running also cause I think Sedlmeier lives somewhat far from US, so get it done in a package deal…The problem with me is I’d like a little time, like at least a week! I have some suspension problems and I don’t want to go fast, its kinda scary.

edit: Oh, watch out for Skurge! he has a brand new catalytic converter! O sit! 🙂

I have a NON-sti, with the “weak” 5 speed. I have slipped my clutch at 4500-5000 well over 200 times since I bought it in 2003. I have also sidestepped the clutch at 6000 probably ~30 times, the result being a AWD burnout kicking my back end out, or a hopping action at lancaster. I don’t know what people are doing to these cars to break them, but im fine. bottom line, Skurge could beat the piss out of that thing way more than 20 times:headbang:. true that FWD tire spinning is \> AWD launch reliabiltiy.

Then look at ALL the abuse OMG LOL, I spread my dumps over 3 years, not 30 mins, after the 10th one, I couldn’t stop laughing!

yea i was gonna say, i’ve launched my car many a times, no problems at all

I usually never dump the clutch, just slip it, seems to work much better, and it saves the drivline(minus the clutch lol)
