hey
first off my revo'd 130 is not as quick as a CTR but i did find some of its weaknesses. [
]
started drving behind and continued to for about 8miles. the owner soon realised that i was not a slow driver and started to have a play. if i didnt know he was accellerting and caught out then the turbo lag i had, would give him a good head start. however, if we were exiting a 30mph limit both at 30 and i anticipated him then i would be able to keep up with him on the the 30-50 bits. i could out brake him into the corners and pull the car out equally well between 20-50mph. things started to hot up and he bagan to push the ctr quite hard around corners. providing i was smooth in the wet conditions the konis and santas kept the golf very stable. plus the little lift off over steer around a roundabout certainly was fun. at this point i will add that we were not racing, nor as dangerously as some people on this forum may try and say.
now the 0-$$$mph comparison.
we both pulled off a junction fron standstill onto a duel carriage way.i was two car lengths behind him , he struggled to get traction and wheel span thru the first two gears, i kept my start concise and got as much torque into the soaking wet tarmac as i could. upto to 30mph i had the edge. between 30-50 it was equal. 50-70 he pulled away, i stopped at 70 cos i dont speed, by that time it was 5 or six car lengths ahead pulling away cos unlike the tdi his vvt kicks in. just thought u liked to hear the comparison. if i had an s3 i think in the wet it would be a different story with the quittro. anyway if ur still reading well done.[]
