Well boys, No BullS**T what so ever but just did a 145 :D

In fairness perfect conditions 10'c outside temp, oil spot on temp and clear road so got on the gas early.

Well chuffed!! just goes to show the B7 is a very fast car! (plus mine has some extra magic! :wink:) it just doesn't feel as quick as a B5 because the Turbo's give you such a rush of power! I did cook the brakes though and almost didn't stop!!!!! :shock:

See you guys soon.

Ah, ha! There are two schemes running.

My preferred method is from a standing start; stationary at bk, then left and up the hill.

Does that mean my figures are better than I thought?

My current preferred method is a scouting lap down the link to see what is on it, fuzz etc..

Then unleash hell (well for a generic remapped S4 anyway) when pretty much pointing in the right direction off the roundabout.

However, Satanschild, I like the cut of your jib. Will be having a piece of that next time!

I remember in my early days of driving before the by-pass, there was awful tram lines in the inside lane from all the lorries. Made it quite interesting!?!
