Title: Scirocco tries it on.
Post by: Egbutt Wash on 19 March 2009, 17:46
At last a Scirocco has shown a bit of steel.   Out of the roundabout at Bretagh Holt and up the A590 hill he was really gunning it, knowing I was alongside.
Good old (new) Superchips map and the DSG saw him off.
He'll be puzzling why a dirty Mk5 GTI with a dog poking out of the window beat him.

Well done Egbert... considering it wasn't long ago that you were claiming your Golf was too powerful... how you kept it one the road under those circumstances...  :wink:

At what point i claimed to im not sure, my old ctr was quicker than a mapped GTI (non ED30) and the chances i was able to use it were slim to none, the R32 having more usable power coupled with 4wd suited me better, even if i lose a second from 60-100 (which of course every one does every day  :huh: )

Not sure why you bothered with this thread

'SHOCK! Modified car beats standard car!'

eggbert has an inbuilt hatred of the R32... even though he has never driven one.
