in my show car cuz the race car isnt ready yet. 14.47 @ 94.77 with 2.681 60' was my best time of the day.

3100 pounds, 1996 VW VR6 GTI with a Vortech V-1 S trim supercharger on it. 134,750 miles on all stock internals motor. Toyo Proxes 4 street tires, pump 91 gas plus a splash of 110 leaded race gas. 94 oct result roughly. full weight, nothing removed. has cd case in the door, spare in it, full stereo gear in the trunk even.

didnt do too awful bad, either. comparatively speaking of course. this one in the 330 ET's what the race car does at the 1.8th. and at the 1/8th, this one ET's what the race car does in a 1/4 haha.

but i spent a fair bit of time trying to organize a VW/Audi/German car race series this year at my local track, and they made it happen. so it wouldnt be right if i didnt at least run SOMETHING there and today was the opener. i used my real car number so my points go to my number not this car.

had fun, had ZERO STRESS with the car. went rounds hot lapping. no need to inspect stuff after a pass, etc. just run it round and round to the lanes.

needed that little pick me up, i think.
