Thats why I have a tuned ZZR1400 which Im contemplating turboing, not found a car that can keep up in a straight line drag :biggrin3:

The new golfs are very nice but the prices! You can get a nice C63 for that which sounds wonderfull.

Hahaha, if standard. I could sneak up on Dave Haye and punch him in the back of the head, it doesn't mean I'm a champ.
