Post by: z3i on October 08, 2013, 08:45:35 pm: Been talking to my mate whos coming up with me, said he did it in his 106 gti and loved it. i have to do it. now i may be over thinking this, but getting power down is obviously a problem, so is the ground sticky enough on the strip or do you just run off boost in first gear, change to second and plant it? first gear is pointless on the road
