Trounced a V6 Golf

UK_Stang · 03-05-2002, 05:45 PM

Hello! This weekend I just picked my car up from having the 3.55 gears fitted, (the place that fitted them is over 2 hours away) and was driving it gently home when I got stuck behind a queue of cars behind a truck. I sat there for a while not able to overtake, when I noticed a silver car weaving in and out of the traffic behind me. I knew that we were coming up to two long straights so I waited, he ended up behind the car behind me as we approached the first straight, I dropped to third and floored it and I saw the Golf swing right out with the nose in the air, but as I went past the truck and changed to fourth I realised how much I was beating him (I hadnt tried the gears in anger!), when we reached the next town I had to pull in for some petrol and I watched him go past and I noticed it was a V6 4motion model, they are supposed to be quick, guess it made me realise how quick "quick" is!!

Yeah , I know what you mean, there are loads of "rice" cars or Jap ***p as we call them over here because they are right hand drive like we are. Some of them run mid 13's easily which is annoying as I am only in the 14's but as one of my friends says, you can't beat the sound of a V8 being given some stick!!

First meeting of the season is 24th March for me, visit www.ukstreetracers.com to see what we get up to!
