Flat out in a 16v
« on: 12 December 2003, 17:28 »
Hello to all!

I'm sure that there's someone else here that has had their 16v flat out.
I've done mine and want to know what it's like compared to others.
Mine was reading 136 on the clock ;)
08.03.10 - 3, maybe 4 weeks, and I want my golf back on the road!

I was racing punto hgt at the time and went past him with mine readin 136. He reckons his was 135 so I just wondered which one was wrong!
I've give up with it at the moment though cos I got pulled over doing 110 and have got a date with the court on the 22nd  :'(

I did get about 136mph out of my valver a few years back. Its just not worth it anymore as the PIGS are everywhere.
Its ok to drive at 2 foot away from the car infront when doing 70mph. But if you break the speed limit then you will get hammered.
