yep, always the best part.........

 

yeah...my head got a little bigger with that comment....the one atop my shoulders you nasty people

 

Wins:
Countless Civics, Integras..usually riced. (puh-lease)
Celica GT-S
Mustang 5.0 (on the highway, several 60-100 runs)
WRX (on the highway, he would have surely killed me from a stop)
Several GTI and Jetta VR6es
Various gen1 and gen2 Eclipse turbos
Lots of Chevy S-10 "Extremes" (why do these guys always want to run?)
Prelude SH, both stock 5-speed and modded auto
Several Probe and Mazda MX-6 V6es
e36 & e46 BMW 325i
e30 BMW M3
Modded MR2 turbo (thought for sure he would win)
Grand Am GTP supercharged (barely got him...he was pissed)


Losses:
Audi S6 (on the highway)
Acura CL Type-S (highway)
S2000 (Twisty back road - it was this encounter that first made me want one )
Audi S4 (Twisty highway)
RX-7 TT (boy did I get smoked)
e36 BMW M3 (friend)
a few Camaro V8s (hey, it's worth a try)

BTW I never had any aspirations of beating any of the above cars, it was just nice to see what they can do.


In all, my GTI is a reasonably quick car that takes a lot of people by surprise, especially rice boys. There are few cars that can keep up on the highway, but launching is very, very difficult with 240 lb-ft of non-linear torque going to the front wheels.
