After picking up some coffee with my wife this morning we ran in to a R32 on the way home (we live on a mountain side), he looked stock. I have exhaust, mugen hardtop, and softtop delete. I thought it was a GTI but my wife said no thats an R32, I knew she was right as soon as it took off . I debated a few seconds as to wether to give chase or not and decided to do it. .
I caught up to him at a stop sign he definately had me 0-60, but I seemed to start gaining around 40 and I definatley had a handling advantage over 50. He seemed to have some traction issues probably driver error. I had to let off several times because there wasn't room to pass and I was dominating .
He gave me a wave when we went our seperate ways, all in all I had a lot of fun!

Serious kill for us had there been room at any point I would have passed he only seemed to be at a advantage in super low speed situations.

 

That's cool.

 

Traction issues in an AWD car with 250bhp seems a bit unlikely...definitely must have been driver error.

 

agreed.

sounds fun though, and your wife sounds pretty cool

MKV R32's aren't really built for performance, more of a tourer imo.

 

V-dub end of story haha...........Nice kill

 

My vw makes the whp of three f20cs. Don't be so ignorant.

 

/\ 200WHP??? confused?

 

200 VWhp = 3 x 200 H(onda)hp

 

Nice run those things are fairly quick Your wife must be so cool, mine would have bashed me over the head for even thinking about racing with her in the car

 

200whp at 3700rpm. At 6-7k he's probably around 5-600.
