Default Raced a jetta today...

Some dude in ajettapulled up next to me tonight, he supposivly had chip, injectors,exhaust, intake, and bov.

i beat him pretty bad each time.
1st race off the line to like 65 and i was prob. 4-5 cars ahead
2nd race same thing but a litlte closer
3rd time we did 25 roll and i killed him,
4th we did about 35 roll and killed him again..

Alls i have is a chip, test pipe, and 3in exhast, racing clutch&FW.

Are they really slower than A4's cause i thought they were faster.

My car:B6 021.8TQ 5sp

He should probably beat you off the line with those mods and FWD.

As an Audi driver doing that to a Dub is like physically beating your younger much more helpless brother, they cant help the fact that they only have FWD. Atleast you have decent vehicles around town, where i live the PVC pipe Honda and the oaxaca reign supreme(not in racing just in numbers)

Yeah, Iknow;I always though FWD cars launched better (unless in snow or rain ).

no not true, an awd car that makes good power to weight can launch very well, but a chipped 1.8t doesnt launch to well.

Yeah, that's sort of what I meant. I justmeant that an AWDcar as heavy as the A4might notlaunch as well as a FWD Jetta with similar mods such as those.
