How far was the trip? and what were the roads like?

hey Dylan, it was a bit over 150km .. and I think there may have been 2, possibly 3, roads that were straight and long enough to allow us to change out of 3rd gear : )) As for road conditions, very good.Originally Posted by dylan8
personally I wouldn't want to do that route on a bike, but in a dub it was brilliant, and even more so in one with AWD hehehe.

only got my APR tune a couple of weeks ago and with suburban driving I didn't notice it a great deal, but since the drive on the weekend it's obviously adapted somewhat and the R has turned into a monster! ; )

Sounds good if I'm available. I might bring the Evo along, would probably suit that drive more than the R36. I know its not euro but at least it'll give the Golf boys some tail lights to look at along the way
