Hi everyone,
Got my car back on the road with the gearbox cryo treated.
Took it for a run with a few friends in their 911 and audi r8... the camera man doesnt know what he's doing not a great vid, its very dark but u can just about make out whats going on!
We did a few runs, i was set at 1.5bar and shifting at 6.5k.



Going POD this sunday if its dry then will up the boost to 1.8 see how that helps!

Thanks all!

I can't see the vidoe but it might just be the connection I'm using. Make sure you get a decent camera man for POD.
Good luck with the launches, what tyres are you using and what condition are they in?

looked like you were struggling with the r8....very suprising. you should kill that.

if the r8 is anything to go by then goodluck on low 12's

nope.

undertaking other road users? deffo no

quiet road however me and a bike or 3... :whistle:

maybe the video made it look worse than it actualyl was...

I think the video did make it look worse, I dont undertake anyone, well except the R8 when I went past it.
In one scene I back off because I didnt want him to undertake but he did anyway..

looked like you were struggling with the r8....very suprising. you should kill that.

How many r8's have u raced?!

I dont go all out with my car when im out of town... like i said I set the boost to 1.5bar and shift at 6-6.5k, im hardly going to whizz past like im racing a 1.4

don't know about kill it?R8 has 420bhp with no lag to worry about and 4wd to boot.in gear times would be better than the polo,agreed it would kill the R8 on a dragstrip though.
