garrett281083 0 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hi guys i no this going to seem a silly question, or at least i hope it does. I have a mk2 vr6 and my mate thinks his mk1 gti is quicker. Im going to be sttling it soon, but just wanted a heads up as to what the outcome is likely to be. Im pretty sure hes going to be eating dust. Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Night racing at Santa Pod next month would sort that question out.... Link to post Share on other sites

dubbed_up_daz 8 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 is it a standard mk1 gti? and is he on glue? Link to post Share on other sites
CALICO 130 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 my mk1 is quicker upto a point than my vr Link to post Share on other sites
dubbed_up_daz 8 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 My mk1 would destroy a vr mk2 but its hardly standard A standard kr converted mk1 against a mk2 VR would be an interesting run though. My old mk1 1.8gti as standard would stay in front of a vr until about 80-90 but that was my brothers mk3 and you pull till 40 then about even then 80-90 the vr reels you in and keeps going. Im pretty sure against a mk2 vr it would only have been close to @60 then the mk2 would be goneon a quarter mile a decent mk2 vr against a standard mk1 gti the mk2 will pull a couple of seconds by the end Link to post Share on other sites
garrett281083 0 Posted January 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 mines got a few things done to it and is def a good mk2 vr. does anyone no what a mk2 vr will do 0-60 in. iv smashed clio cups off the line so im pretty sure a mk1 gti is gnna struggle to match it. looked at there 0-60 times of over 8 secs a mk2 vr must be 6.5 if not less. the mk3 does it in 7 i believe. mine is stripped out. could a mk1 gti really give me tht much hassle?
