Oky so last night on my way back to my home, on the highway I got a Golf 5 GTI on the road, cruzing the same speed as me, followed him for about 5km`s, then thought I would like to see if he thinks he has a decent car, I upped my speed with about 10km/h, creeping past him, when we where next to each other we exchanged a glimpse, I was looking at his car when I went past, Car had 4 exhoust tips in the back.
When his nose was in line with my back, he went for it, when he was next to me I punched it, when his back bumper was next to my nose we were at the same speed, went past him at 170km/h and backed off, dropped down to about 110km/h and he kept behind me, didnt want to pass me, then we took different routes, was fun! And I was very impressed!

I will always try to dice any car! have done that many a time in my Golf and my Bakkie( needless to say i lost allot) So I enjoy winning a bit now!
Only thing that I would confess, is I think my waistegate got stuck again, sounded like I was pushing 1bar
But I can be wrong! hehe

The best part for me is that you can smoke a R250k + car with a car that cost less the R50k, love it.

yes i agree! Dis n regte Kalahari Farrari!
even if you spend R200k + and then the car cost you R250k +-, you would easily be able to take cars on thats R500k +. Thats what I love!

Ja probably had some work done on it. If you see a
Revo sticker on a Gti, chances of you catching it are slim, 'cos they push out around 250wHp, and a bucketload of torque
How many horses does a stockish s13 sx make? Around the same as a PoloGti? +-170wHp/125wKw?
The sx is good at going fast, thats for sure, you'll actually have traction in first and second while the Gti's ESP is going "what the hell are you doing you senseless moron"??? Hahahaha
