    Al's Golf GTI APR Stage III VS Migs's BMW 135i

    We went out to the drags last wednesday, I took a few videos but this is the only rescuable one.

    Enjoy:

    Feminist until you get married
    Atheist until the airplane starts falling

    Nice top end - if only we could get GTI's to launch like 135i's

    Great video.
    I did manage a 1.81sec 0-60' but alas missed my third gear
    Here's the same race from a spectators perspective.

    Looking good Alan - if you can only tie all components together (Launch & shfting etc) then there should be an 11 in it.

    Was that a second gear burnout? looked like a little smoke (maybe a little heat) and did you get any temp into the tyres? I suppose you need to pull up at the head of the escape / return road to check. It's so gold they will cool down by the time you get back to the tower.

    Need to show your friend where the zoom function is I'm guessing this was origin night? The place is a ghost town. Jason and I went last year to take advantage of that but forgot this year

    Great stuff, keep hunting an 11 mate!

    I told him if he was stuck in the 12's, that I should take the driver's seat. I weigh less, launch harder and shift faster
    But alas, there was no swapping. Asking a man to drive his car is like asking to share his wife. It only happens if you're Robert Redford and Woody Harrelson and there's a million dollars involved. And you live in a movie.
