GTi Festival

[OldSpeckledBen]

It was a good day, maybe a little cold for standing around but good for the cars and good to see a few guys off of here running down the strip 

My favourite drag of the day was the Cadillac CTS-V getting beaten by a Nogaro Blue Audi S4, I don't know what the Audi was running but it was awesome to watch!! 

[Jussa]

Yes, that Audi was Awesome, I ran against it, and to be honest I've never seen an acceleration like it, phenomenal - but he was running serious NOS.  that Cadillac was pushing over 700bhp 

[Hurdy]

Great times there mate, and it was good to eventually meet 
My best time was 13.0557 
going to have to get her serviced and checked out, as well as getting the GIAC DSG map.  Hurdy did well, apparently a 12.6 
Either the R's are a lot quicker than the S3's or I haven't gotten her setup aggressively enough
Will post up some pics when I get the chance.
BTW that rocket car was epic 

Cheers Justin, the R performed well, but still struggles with the top end, maybe due to the torque limit still being there. My fastest times were 12.615 and with a passenger 12.787

The Audi was on nitrous.

Thanks, yes im really pleased with the times. Hurdy almost made me want to start chasing the 13's :

KC_GTI mine is a stage 2 ko3 gti DSG.

Yes the rocket car was awesome  . I have a crappy phone video;

Those were good runs Ben, some stage 1 ED30's would be happy with low 14's

Thanks Hurdy, be interesting to see what power it is actually making when it goes on jkm's rollers in a coupe of weeks.

Your R looks fantastic. I didnt get to see you do a run but looks like you got some good times even with the torque limit issues.

What time did your friend in the blue R get?

[Hurdy]

Jd managed a best of 12.86, which is great for stage 1.

Turned out to be perfect weather and was nice to put a few faces to some names on here at last 

Had a nice drive up with Justin and was pretty much at the front of the queue when they opened the sprints 

Overall a little disappointed with my best time of a 14.9 and was just about catching Bendy up on one of my runs but felt like i was down on power a little  and would've been far behind with his later low 14's runs

Not sure whether by disconnecting the battery whilst have my new steering wheel and controller fitted has done something to my map, wasnt sure if it was in my head at the time, but today it wasnt pulling as hard as at inters back in June 

Definitely getting an air vent newsouth boost gauge after seeing one today and will help me keep an eye on things

If your car has Revo software then it will have reverted to default B0 F0 T0 settings when disconnecting the battery and will affect the performance quite a bit mate.

What was his terminal speed compared with yours John?
