Jonny, thought the S3 was good but this looks like it will be better again.
Just spent a while reading that! Wow.
V good times there.

Thanks mate..

The aim is to get into the 11's with the standard turbo and road legal tyres, we will see how I get on the next time! If its too much of a struggle then its time for a bigger turbo haha..

Cool mate, fun stuff

Im not into sprint runs really, just trackdays. Did do it at GTi inters last year though, only because I had unlimited free runs

Would be interesting though, cars got a fair bit more power now, plus a diff, but would still be a challenge to get the power down on the straights

Out of interest, how much weight saving is there with the likes of pro race 1.2's over OEM wheels?

And for the million dollar question, how much time saving and top speed is created with this weight saving alone (how long is a piece of string I guess)

 

[Chan_P1_TDi_FR]

1 kilo saved on the wheel apparently is the equivalent of about 10 kilo kerb weight. thats according the some tuner mags. not sure how accurate this is.

I heard it was higher than that!

 

[Chan_P1_TDi_FR]

higher has got to be a good thing. couple that with some ultra sticky toyo R888's should do the trick
