wow quick response!!!!
you reckon blue... i though it would kick my a$$
its like a tine on wheels so thought it would be quicker as its seems soo light.. trying to find the standard specs bhp 0-60 times etc for both cars (both standard) but cant find them on the net anywhere.

To be honest if yours is an 8v then top end would suffer abit.
i got 130 out of one (not sure on engine mods). But then again my sisters 1.25 Zetec fiesta laughed at it
You cant be a VW on a quality race thats for sure

Get em from a rolling start, Its where the Golfs larger size comes into play, It gives you better traction, Heck ive beaten a Mk2 Astra GTE by getting a solid lead off the line before, And my cars sh!t on the top end :-[
