    Haldex System?? ... Never heard of it and probably most Audi drivers haven't either. But testing this S3 in extremely raining conditions made me realise how good it is in the wet!
    Hopefully i'm going to get Ben to bring me back and RS3 or RS6 ... or anything RS so we can have some more fun in the rain!

    Need to release the brake sooner for the launch guys, otherwise you loose boost! Also, humid weather slows down combustion. Hence, 5.4 second 😂

      I’m still looking for a 17+ GTR with low miles but only 2 for sale in entire state of California and both look beat and listed at 90% of MSRP. I know you owned GT3’s in the past, do you think they’re overpriced (used) for what they are? Internally debating between GTR and 991.1 GT3.

    • @EVILGT
      @EVILGT  Před 4 lety

      GT3's are still expensive and not as overpriced as they once were. I had my old one up for sale through the dealer for about 3 months and now with the economic downturn i don't think anyone can expect to get big prices. All i can say is that for day to day use my GTR is spot on for me, i couldn't live with a GT3 everyday, but lots of people do.

    VAG hot hatches seem to have been dialed down quite a lot since they were fitted with OPF's. They've all taken a toll in performance when compared to the previous versions without the particulate filters.

    I’ve found in my S4 if I sit with the launch activated like that bouncing at 3k for any longer than a couple of seconds things get too warm and the clutches can start to slip. The upswing method works best on the S4 where you release the break just before it reaches what your launch is set at
