Just raced a Orange GTO with black wheels. 6k hids in headlights and 3k in fogs, not sure which motor since it was debaged. had dual exhaust and was loud as **** though! definitely had headers and exhaust work done.
Guy saw me and flew by me loud as **** then he slowed down and I heard him drop gears. so I did the same as I gave the 2 guys a thumbs up. He went and I tried to go but I misfired immediately in Low. so he slowed back down and waited again then gave me the hit and I got on it almost all the way in Drive went from 50 to about 100 and I started misfiring around 80 but the car wanted to keep going since I wasn't on it all the way. Had to let off because of traffic. He was at my door when I let off. Guy in the passenger seat was surprised as **** and they both gave me a thumbs up.
Would have liked to of gotten a better run out of him and my car if it were ready to perform, just need to be patient. I'm really hoping e85 will solve my problems.

The main problem with this website is people always have to say something about other peoples remarks to much and they should get the complete story behind the remark before they say anything

No I cant get under the car enough to look around to see if I can see or find the leak,So thats why I have took it to three different muffler shops and had them look and all they have done is put the car on the rack and look under it but when they are looking they dont even have the car running
It sounds like its coming from the Dp area but you know how sound travels

So my BS of the day:
Tucson Mercedes calls me and lets me know they have a 2010 GTI 4 Door in, and they will buy back my GLI for what I paid for it. I told them I would get it, but I want a 24 hour test drive first. The car is a 2010 with 14K miles on it w/dsg. I drive it around town... its real nice, smells new, has all the options I want. I then take it on the highway to go back home. I do a spirited jaunt to 80 MPH..... and I hear a slight ticking up top. I am like WTF is this noise.... Ticking gets louder and goes along with the revs. I immediately get a frownie face. SO in my garage right now I have a 2010 GTI 4 Door with what I think has a **** ton of metal parts in my oil pan right now. Odd thing though.... its not smoking. Oil looks perfect... no consumption.,... Just sounds like a jack hammer when I turn it on. Glad it broke on the test drive
I will be picking my GLI back up tomorrow after they give me a free car wash for wasting my time.

If I make it up I would have been more creative with maybe a Lambo or something
"Yeah I just picked up a TT Gallardo tonight, blew the motor on the 24 hour test drive, and got it towed back"
