lets post some 400m times

[wolfsburg]

I am actually keen to do a timed 1/4 mile run, a friend wants me to run at our local drag races in October. However I do want to do some prep work for that run.

Yeah I have outrun a wrx from 100KMh+ going uphill, i don't think he was very happy. I know I was grinning from ear to ear

Performance VW mag has times for most modified VAG in their mag every month.
It will give you an idea what and how much will be needed to get quick times'
If I remember correctly a non 4wd car that was pretty well the fastest front drive was a Seat with a 1.8 t of course. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

i ran a mid 19 in my 1300, on a VERY greasy track.... my mate alongside ran a 17 in his orignal gti engineering 2L mk1...wheelspin pretty much all the way...

I will have a go soon in My mkIV 1.8T golf and repost, just have to find a nice no cop road thats all, Takin off from the lights is always great and I get to hundred in about 7-8 seconds should change once I spend some bread on an APR chip and exhaust system.

Went to a dyno day with a retarded cam gear. Damn the car was so rev happy then. I ended up advancing the cam back to 0 as the fuel bill was shocking driving everywhere at 5K rpm LOL

heres what power but i need a gtech or something to get 1/4 mile time im equal with my bro's rs liberty and that recorded a 6.45 0-100kp/h on a gtech a while ago


this equals about 120bhp

Hey ALex, when is your golf going to be back on the road?

[finemk1]

I remember blowing off all the idiots in my area in my stock 1600 Mk1. Well all the other 4's anyway that thing went suprisingly well.
Im sure you all know the type, mums old Excel or pulsar with rims and a cannon and no other mods but they think its the best car out.

I was going to take it to the Nationals on the drag day but had some troubles with it.

Im taking my new Mk1 next year I'm very keen to see how it goes, could upset a few people i think. Ive already blown off my mates commodore, absolutly flogged him.

[ausgolfer]

My mk2 16v isn't too slow for an old banger. Some scalps I have include VL turbo, ET Pulsar turbo, Ford TX3, brand new Honda Integra Type S.
Tried to drag a VY SS commodore and had him in 1st(he bogged it down) but he was a whole length in front buy about 90km/hr.
Also ate an XR6 turbo ute in 1st but he flew past me in 2nd.

Tried measuring a 0-100 time on a stop watch with a mate in the car timing and the best I got was 7.5 seconds but that was with 17's on it and also I think most cars have inaccuracy built into their speedos.

You guys are all talk

15.2 @ 95 MPH VR6
13.7 @ 99 MPH Audi S3 (Gene Berg trophy winner 2005)

Audi will be running again May 21st at WSID . Hoping for mid to low 12's

Golf wont be finished till next year . Waiting for ANDRA to sort out Sport compact classes

[ausgolfer]

Hopefully the VW club of Vic has a drag night again soon, then at least I'll be quicker than the beetles

[Bug_racer]

I'll be at Eastern Creek May 21st . Id love to see some of you guys out there at WSID . I dont go every week either . The VR6 was raced in 2001 and 2002 , the s3 in 2005 and early this year . MK1's can do the maddest burnouts even if they are slow . That Mk1 that was out there last year was pretty quick . Thumbs up to taking the car out there . You dont need big $ to get a mk1 to run a 14 . I have 2 turbo's laying around that are oil cooled and a 1.8 stroker engine for a mk1 and I dont even own a mk1 anymore . Ive gone for outright power in a strong body , hence the VR6 . The power I will be making will twist a mk1 on its first pass . I still need to spend $ reinforcing the mk3 after acid dipping it . But first ANDRA needs to sort out the sport compact class

[DVR68U]

cheers brenton
