    FFS, I am not shooting the test down -- you and anyone else are entirely free to anything with your cars that you like, just as I am free to offer comments .... see why flames wars happen

    ...and there's no way you'll get a stage 2 Polo with LSD, let alone a stage 1 or stock Polo around Winton in under 1:40....even with sticky, sticky slicks

    Tim you're probably right, under 1.40 at Winton is pushing it - no doubt, and I don't think anyone has specifically claimed the Polo GTI will beat 1.40 at Winton, but keep in mind, the test isn't based on lap times alone.

    A positive outcome of the test is that it would put an end to speculation and provide some certainty.

    Just FYI,

    I just happen to have a Boxster "S" with a roof (my cayman S!) it ran a 13.5 sec 1/4 mile 4 times over in the indy rally, it would wheel spin slightly off the line, but then hook up.

    Just meaning that the Boxster is way, way more efficient at putting the power down than either our golf or polo is

    Yes is definately is, ..it is a Porsche ..but, it doesn't mean the Polo and Golf GTI collective shouldn't declare war on the Boxter S

    MACCAA declared war on Winton race track and got camber adjusters, Timbo's declared war on the turbo bolts, ...why not the Boxter S?

    ..as they say, to be the best, ya gotta beat the best

    All of us here know the Pog is a giant-killer ....we just need to remember the first rule of giant killing: first, pick your giant....

    This has been several pages of.... Umming and AAAhhing...

    Im not trying to sound rude or anything but it seems that the original question was what a polo does, and the reply was.. a porshe does it in X.XX seconds......... or... I know but im not telling... i meen... its like asking if someone knows the time and getting... a smile a nod and then nothing.

    Im tired and grumpy and i need love. And dinner. and a million dollars. and maybe a porshe since its been stated in this post to be the better car....

    I have serious doubts that any pogo here can break the 6 second mark as a road going vehicle.

    With APR stage 1 and street tyres I did a 1.52 at Winton (I'm a pretty average driver), a better driver could probably get to 1.50
    My Pog will beat a Boxter around Winton, but a Boxter S will leave me in it's dust.
