Raced a 106 GTi this evening, funnily enough i didnt win. was side by side for 1st and 2nd then into 3rd and he was orf 
Kinda makes me wish i'd started tuning a 1.6 instead 
What actually are the specs of the GTi's as standard?

me and whittie have been doing this tonight was using my mates gti for the night as he has borrowed la diesel beast. First race alex got ahead but i caught up (to much revs!) second attempt got traction off the line and was fairly close, gti had the edge though. This all took part on out private airfield of course
