Track conditions and practice make a big difference. I started the day doing 16.1's and did about 6 runs to get my best time, most were in the 15.8's though.
I got a 15.080 at Shakespear raceway
chip, toothies & full blend charger
Think now ive learnt how to launch probperly i could get in to the 14's
Does anyone know of any UK G40s running quicker than 13.1?
Or any UK FWD Polos running quicker for that matter. :scyth:

Looks like yours is the quickest here
I saw a mk2 golf at bugjam do a 10 sec quarter mile
had a 1.8 turbo in it
fastest FWD car i've seen
on topic... is anyone goin to ten of the best this sunday at elvington? tht mk2 will b there i rekon but i dont think it'll still be fastest FWD in the country this year. loads more competition.
i cant get there, gotta go out for the bird's birthday :(
