Raced a nice looking Golf one night. Had 17'* and an exhaust. now I know about these cars, and they have a shitload of nut. Well this guy got a good look at me and my car and he was like what the hell is that. And I had seen this car around town before that night. Well the light turned green and we both took off and on his way to shifting into second I was gone. If I wasn't gone by the time he hit third he might of took me, so I was lucky even though he has a high 1 liter low 2 liter engine. Good race, nice kill.
what type of Golf was it? theyre not all awesome cars. i belive the GTi with the V6 wouldve given you a run fo yo money....or is that one called the VR6? man why cant they just give them names instead of numbers and letters.

I don't think it was a VR6 GTI, and I hear those are way fast. It was a nicely done up golf though. Just evidently the guy didn't know how to race or maybe he was just babying it, that'* why he lost.
Nice kill! I killed a Golf too. Had a big fart can and 17 or 18" rims. That thing was SLOW. At least compared to me and how fast I smoked him. I think he didn't know how to drive it because a Ford Focus kept up with me better than this guy!
But of course I still creamed the Focus.

Golf GTI'* with the VR6 engine (2.8L) do 0-60 mph in 7.1 seconds. GTI'* with the 1.8T engine do 0-60 mph in 7.44 seconds. VW Golf'* with the base 4-cylinder (2.0L) do 0-60 in about 8.5 seconds. Golf TDI'* (1.9L) do 0-60 mph in... don't waste your (premium, in my case) gas racing him. Let him think he ran you. It will make his day.
