Hey Big TT

You say that you launch your car at 4000rpm, but you only rev to 6500 it is like your taking off at 7000rpm in a S2000,

But anyway I race a TT convertible, he had a boosted turbo, and Blow off valve. I left him behind 5 cars, and the funny thing was he came over to me for a run I gave him a spanking that he will never for get.

So you go figure

DeeGYM's Prelude race video is one of my favs. Looking forward to seeing the new ones.

Speedy,
No problems at all. Again, my apologies for the earlier comment I made about the insults being directed at me

In addition...anyone read this (last?) months copy of Auto World Monthly? On page 16, take a look at the stats on the TT 1.8T. the same issue has a road test on a Spa Yellow S2K. While I don't have a copy of the mag here at work, I think the stats showed the S2K at 5.6 sec 0-60, and the TT at 7.1 or something like that. Hmmm......

Hey,
The Golf is a great car to blast around in on the weekends, but I'm really looking forward to the top down, refined ride of a true $50,000 (CAD) sports car.
Hope you visited the site and enjoyed!

We got much better vids last night. Well, at least I hope it's better. I couldn't tell because I was way ahead of the 8 car group. I can't wait to see them. This time it was from a stop.
You can read about it on the Honda-Acura.net kill stories section.

interesting post.....i wasn't there so i don't know.....but i have a TT roadster 225 that is now chipped. i have several friends with stooks here and this is what my expierences are:

TTr stock: 0-60 i kick ass.....about 5 lenghts away on a good launch (you gotta damit that quattro is a cool thing), but after about 70 to 80...the stook passes me like i am standing still

TTr chpped: same thing happens outta the hole.....stayed in front about 3 or 4 lenghts, but ran outta road, so to be continued....

p.s. i love the stook.....honestly, the TTr is for the fiance.....but if i could....i'd get a took for myself...

happy driving!
