lol who are you to say that i cant drive? have you ever seen me drive before no. and also this wasent a hardcore race. me and the 2.8 were leaving a frends house at teh same time and decided to have a fun little race up the street. and on the higher speed raceds the 1.8 had 2 people in it pluss teh system and teh 2.8 had only the driver
Wasn't trying to slam you, just giving some advice on the takeoff. I did see you said "rolling start". You would have taken him a lot better from a stop, if you kept the revs up.[8D]

Next time you race him, do it from a stop, and then tear him up! I am sure you are capable!

2.8/3.0 are the best cruisers without doubt and fast enough, the 1.8T is the whipper snapper because its lighter (which is the best) the 2.8/3.0 they are designed for gentlemen and ladies and the 1.8T is for the racy boys and galls

I refuse to race people who use NOS. Its like using steroids... Its unfair in competition and their nuts are always the size of a skittle.

How is that unfair competition? Thats basically the same as adding a bigger turbo, it gets the exact desired effect, which is to go down the line faster. When it comes to a flat out drag race all means of acceleration is acceptable. Its funny how most high displacement (V8) guys would say the same thing about boosted 4bangers.
Hey silveraudi98 just out of curiousity whats the hp with NOS, and whats the "electronic exhaust cutout"?
