May not be a VR6 but sounds sweet. Vee are very amused. Sounds powerful. Did you see the traction control lights? probably a good thing that the R has AWD.

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

He's switched the ESP off, that's all. No way it's spinning its wheels at 100+kph - rev counter supports that.

He's switched the ESP off? What? Look at the damn road! It's covered with snow and ice. He must be nuts.

Bah, roads just wet that's all. Anyway you remember the days before ESP don't you? Drivers had skills then, not like the playstation generation and its ESP/DSG/XDS/EDL/ASR/EBD/ABS/HBA/ACC (:shocked:) where the Nanny computer does it all for you  :wink:

Actually sounds pretty decent.  Whats the red light on the speedo right next to the needle base?

Will sound even better with DSG because you get the rasp between gear changes.
