Hopefully we can try to organize a trakc day in the summer. We'll check in the spring with a poll, and see who is interested. I'm sure we can arrange something on a Friday night at Cayuga, or GB.

Don't worry. If I can set it up it will be in the Special meets. And I'm sure it'll be a big thread. There are a lot of armchair racers here, and I've got to find out who exactly has what. I'm sure alot of people here say the same about me. But that's OK. It's just the net.

i guess its all in the perspective...
see, to me a 16 second car is not fast, or quick...sorry, but thats slow in terms of whats considered quick and whats not.
i guess i should mention what i drive
1987 LX hatch
247whp
301torque
88 302, UD pulleys,Typhoon intake, BBK 70mm TB & Spacer, FMS 3.73's, King Cobra Clutch, , 3 core radiator, 255lph Walbro, Steeda Tri-X shifter, Offroad H-pipe, MAC shortie headers, Magnaflow 2 chamber, RSD seats, eibach springs, steeda LCA's, projector headlights.
and i dont consider my car to be fast....
i'm sorry if my posts seem like i'm ragging and attacking...i'm not
its a nice car and yes. 16V's are rare.....
plus my mods equals one fast little car

LOL!!! I give up doode. ok u win, i have a slooooow car. ur car is faster than mine. there's a million cars out there that are faster.
we've not tested my car to see how she performs. when i get some track times instead of your expert opinion, then we can see if i have a slow car.
if you ask me, (this is the world I am in) when i pass 8v drivers every day with no ***** at all in their rides, mine is a fast car.
not fast or quick?
How is that to be taken any other way than an attack or ragging? are there car's that are faster than yours redliner? if so, if one of those owners said u don't have a fast car, what would u say?
again man, i said my car is fast, not the fastest. i have a faster car than most other vw owners. by your logic, because they have NO MODS, and i do, I have a fast car. see wut i mean bro?
I'm not tryin to cause . nor am i tryin to be an ethug. you will find in time i am just about havin fun. if my jokes or sense of humor were lost in the text, i'm sorry.
realize redliner, there will always be someone who is faster. doesn't mean u have a slow car. I put up my first post on here showing of my ride (which i am very proud of, as you yourself no doubt are as well), and you did try to tear it down. you minsunderstand my post and think i'm bragging when in fact i am joking.

LHD Part was there cuz I copied my specs from where my car is shown on a Japanese VW website.

Glad to see there's a sense of humor on this site! LOL!!!
lmk when ur ready to put ur car up against mine (hopefully I should be done by spring) then we can talk about my car's performance! don't forget, my car is red, thats like 20 HP right there, plus a kenwood cd deck so thats like another 15hp.
For now, I haven't even brought this one out to the track to see what she can do yet.
do u guys do track meets in the spring and summer?
Simon.

we had a guy on here with modded 16V GTI and he only ran a 15.7

I guess perspective is right. because if i didn't know better, i would think you were tryin to tear my ride down to make yourself either look good for pickin on the noob, or feel better about your own car. either way, I don't dig it. i've been patient thus far as i am a new member and as i mentioned earlier, not here to cause problems.
Bottom line Redliner. My car, no matter wut u say, is fast. Fast is a relative term I know. I am certain there are cars out ther that can beat me. its a no brainer. but when i show a new club my hard work and the project i have invested time and love into, brought so much performance out of her considering her age and technology and a guy like u comes on and the first thing he does rather than "hey welcome to TSR" is hahahah this guy thinks hes the . how would u take it?
I bet if i look on here i can find some cars that would make YOU feel like your an inch tall in front of all the othher members. you can say you are not tryin to tear me down, but your actions suggest otherwise.
so which is it man? have i misinterperted the entire situation or have u? I am prepared to admit I am wrong when faced with a situation like this, are you?

Here's a little b4 and after for everyone. this is just work on the exterior of the car. converted to 92 big bumpers, removed pinstriping (YAY 80's), and got rid of the hood guard ( I curse you 3m!!!!)
when I first got her.
pin striping and the bastard adhesive!!!
aligator hood!
best I could get it, then I had to use a Mr.Clean Magic Eraser and laquer thinner to remove the adhesive for the pinstriping and the stone guard, heat gun took care of the rest!
I will keep it short since i have no 56k warning on my thread! LOL!!
big difference eh?
