I've only had this a couple of times in the golf.  More often than not I end up getting asked to race when I'm in my mates Corsa as it's totally standard except for alloys, exhaust and tinted windows.... from the outside.  They get quite a shock when I put my foot down and leave them :) - 2.0 Cavalier engine, ported, polished, gas flowed, race cams, lightened/balanced fly wheel/clutch, twin webbers and nothing but the dash and 2 bucket seats inside  ;D

The boys round where I live no better than to try and race me ;) :D
Tho I do get the odd one that gets confused when they see the child seat in the back of the GTI ;D

It just seems to be other Golfs that try to race me in my VR6.

I've gone up against Modded mk1s & mk2s, mk2 Rallyes, Mk3 16vs & VR6s, and a spanking new R32 the other day.

The rallyes are tricky to keep up with round the corners.  The R32 kicked my bottom.

I'm gonna get a Mk4 4Motion and turbocharge it.  It's time for payback.

Nick.
