Hi Rich, great meeting eventually  :happy2:

Did u do your best run alone or with Jay?  :confused:

With jay... I guess a few tenths might have been had without a passenger.

It isn't the strip which makes your car feel slow Rich, it's having Jay as a passenger!  :driver:

Why did you launch from idle!! What staged car where you against?? No wonder u only managed 14.1

You should be getting 13.5 at least with stage 2

I recon your weight advantage was lost carrying Jays Teddy bear on the backseat  :wink:

What was your 0-60?

All the information is in the vid. description. Mines stage 1 Steve.

Edition 30 DSG Stage 1 REVO --- 13.94s @ 102.33
vs
Edition 30 Manual Stage 2 REVO --- 13.78 @ 104.33

Didnt want to r*pe the DSG launching it as it needs a service and this was the first run of the day having been sat in the queue for ages (coldish engine)

Dunno whos car it was.. but he reckoned he was running 340bhp.... as you can see from the timings theres no chance its making that power.

Oh mines not showing stats from this link, only the video.

It won't be stage 2 at 340.. Must be a Superchips tuned car  :wink: lol

Yeah to be fair the engine was cold.

"start the engine and let it warm up"
nah it'll be fine  :signLOL: :signLOL:


And I did try and try and try to get Rich to do a proper launch.
Still had a great day nevertheless.

I reckon once rolling the Stage 2 eddie gained no ground over us. It was pretty even. It was all in the start.

Then again 340bhp on AMD's dyno....

And the difference between owning a twin clutch over a stick shift.. DSG stage 2 V manual 2+ would be about the same IMO
