Default Shocked tonight

Had a little play with my mates GTI-r on M-way (his is about 300bhp) both floor it about 70mph and i didnt pull much on him until getting to 120mph but then had to slow down as cars where approaching. Stop at services said fook. Only to find out he was using the gears and i stayed in 5th Must remember to use the gearbox as im not driving my 306TD now

So back on the motorway re run at 60ish he changed down to 3rd i went to forth and pulled like fook Thought thats better left him for dead.


Now only to find i lost my poxy breather pipe of the bottom of my bailey tank DOH!

What power's yours? Mind you alot of so called 300bhp Gtirs don't seem to be as fast as they should. Case in point being my neighbour bought one and it was way slower than my 246bhp one.
