Cupra Tdi Santa Pod

[redcupratdi]

So braving it tomorrow and going to santa pod to have a go been out tonight and don't know weather its better to have ESp/traction on or off?


as it spins through 1st and 2nd with off but with it on the revs drop in secound and slows car down.

do i just keep foot down no matter what and just keep in second till it stop spinning gets grip and pulls me.

0-100 comes in around 15sec so hoping for alright time.

use ur clutch and throttle instead of TCS , just dont plant it , a clutch has more positions other than in or out , wait till over 2.5k in 2nd b4 WOT

I know what you balance the clutch a bit before releasing it fully, thanks for advice.

I'd say you should be in the mid 14's region, what with your 'lightweight stage 1' etc... what is that? In the dry anyway.

What was your 60ft time, bearing in mind the dampness...

Redcupra tdi, sort that video out at the bottom of your sig, looks like omething from the 1980's russian film school.

TCS off. use your brain as an alternative.

Yes must have it turned off @ the pod

On my TDi 130 I turn it off most of the time as it flashes almost everytime I pull away

So what times did you get then Redcupra? I take it yours is a 160bhp model chipped to 195bhp?

What do these run standard 1/4s?

Watch out for broken CV joints.

Tends to happen when you dump 2nd gear.
