Finally!!!
« on: 06 April 2010, 17:09 »
Finally, finally made it (on the private drive!!)

Flat, with a slight kink and a very slight uphill end bit.



How did I achieve it?

Today lost 63.4 kg out of the back of the car (seat backs, bench, trim, spare wheel and sub box)
Octane booster and B7T7F7 settings.
1/4 tank of fuel left.
Launch control at 2.2k with R888's onboard.

So that is one of my goals achieved, now all I need is a sub 13 second run on an official dragstrip and a sub 9 minute FULL lap of the 'ring and I'll be one majorly happy bunny.  :cool:

Time to change the sig. maybe

Tasty, especially nice in that short, private driveway.  :wink:

What mods are next?
MKV GTI | Reflex Silver | 5-dr | Anthracite 17" | Manual | Highline MFD | Cruise | Revision 'D' DV | Dirty Pipes |

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?

Was driving home last night along a nice straight uphill stretch that I drive along and just thinking that to be able to do +10mph every second up to 100 is simply silly speeds!!! well done that man Hurdy!!  :evil:
