Nice i have done a bit of looking around and a gain of 21-25mph from the 1/8mile is quite normal for cars around 350-420hp be it 4wd or fwd.So maybe it is right considering we had a tail wind to.Must have more power than i thought lol.

I can't believe how flat that appears, no digging its backside in and lifting the front. Did you do anything in particular, or is it all talent & those fancy engine mounts?

Haha.. The rear is quite stiff, and I have about 10mm of rake in the car.. Also the solid lower mount means that there is almost no movement in the engine and gearbox, which helps traction etc..

Also modulating the power in 1st, once it was in 2nd I had enough traction to use all of the power.. Also the DSG makes for a very efficient smooth gear change..

Mine made 23mph from 1/8 to the 1/4 mark, so you're not wrong....

All the videos look great, a whole different kettle of fish to when I've just had a play at Inters!

How did you lot go against similar powered stuff like STs and VXRs?
