Saturday night my friend and i went out for some late night rips (yea i know...its not good..watever)...hes got a VR6 Jetta...from a 1st gear roll at about 15 we both took off..i stayed right next to him all the way through 3rd..(60/65mph) ..then he slowly crept away...does this sound right for a 50hp diff?

i dunno about that but i sure did leave a mark on a vr6 golf sunday coming back from florida on hwy doing about 60 and then the speed went upppppp and he was left behind

 

The only thing I can think of is that you are a better driver then him.
Is your car stock ?
I would think a stock VR6 would pull at least a car length or two away from a stock B5 1.8T

 

dude...im bone stock and this kid races his car at VIR and was lapping Vette's and austin martins...im not a better driver ..sorry....

where were you runnin? i live by you.

 

something is not right then if you were staying with this car your car weights more then him and your car is slower than him for sure maybe he was taking it easy on you or something

 

haha...if going from a dig and hitting shifts perfectly..both of us. means taking it easy..then yes...dude..we were both out for blood...trust me..he wasnt taking it easy..at all..

--any way i could be chipped w/o knowing any way to check w/o vag?

 

Are you kidding ? Chipped without knowing ?
You would know if you were chipped.
If hes as good a driver as you say he is , then he would pull away from you.
I agree with clconversion.

 

my friend has a gti and ill take at the start but he will pass .... i am un chiped .... and i will soon be winning ha

 

you have quattro... so you may pull on him slightly from a dig. but he is MUCH lighter.. and a lot more powerful, as well as having a much more powerful revband then you. something's messed up
