Have you really found wheel spin an issue when doing 1/4 mile runs in a 4WD car? Frying the clutch yes, spinning the wheels, no.

Ryan, surely you'll be better off in wet conditions, what with 4WD and all?

Wouldn't mind seeing what a heavily modded S3 can do.

They don't let you run in any sort of rain,very cold weather and the cars bouncing everywhere.10 degrees + would be good and dry.
Best so far is a 13.9@107mph.

I have taken the Red Rocket up there on a Jap day(hahahaha) dont ask me why, i got hauled in.

Weather was bad that day, many of the Scoobeys and Skylines had will spin issues but i managed to show them some german engineering.

At the time i was running no map, now the cars quicker.

The vids on my gallery if anyones interested.

Ill check the weather on the above dates and give you a shout.
