Yeah that's correct, wet conditions will mean launches are not as quick. I can do 0-60 (on the speedo) in my TDI Polo in about 3 secs just by spinning the wheels in the wet and shifting fast into 2nd while keeping it on boost and the grip off.

Lol, and the shift from 1st to second is hard in the wet.   I never said i was going to gain 2 seconds.

If someone can confirm if Santa Pod give 0-60 time son their slips then you should come up to SPringFest and take it up the strip a few times. That will give you an accurate figue and you'll have a blast and meet some of us lot for a natter about cars all at the same time. It's win/win!
