Not bad. Not the Golf R block I have in my Skoda of course, but not lacking in poke I imagine!

FIA Formula One 2018 |OT| Halo: Racing Evolved
- Thread starter Aiii
- Start date
Everything in the class of car I test drove was boring. Civic, focus, Corolla, impreza bleh. The two good ones were Mazda 3 and golf
i'm in Canada, our choices for small fun cars are VERY limited. at that price level for a new car it was literally golf tsi or a mazda 3, which to be fair are awesome fun cars...but yeah our choices are more limited. God, i don't even want to tell you about the Chevy cruze, the sales persons selling point was literally "the seats are comfortable aren't they? not like the old L benches they used decades ago" it was like "alright...." lol. Not to mention she came with me on the test drive. In contrast to the VW dealer wheres the sales person just let me take it out. I should point out both the Chevy dealer and the VW literally five minutes from me in a very affluent area of the city, so this wasn't exactly downtown Detroit where they don't know whose test driving these cars lol
We have some interesting news today. Laurent Mekies, the deputy race director the FIA, is joining Ferrari in a technical role.
My car has 120hp lol
Not very fast, but when there is snow on the ground it can be fun to drive slipping around corners. I still hit curbing to pretend I'm saving tenths of a second off my commute lol
We're not allowed to go much past 70 lol.
280 Skoda and 240hp S2000 do me just fine. Tho the Skoda is getting its Steinbauer box put back in at the end of the month so its "apparently" nearer 330hp with that in.

I get my racing thrills from video games, road cars have a different purpose for me. I want convenience, comfortability, reliability, plenty of features, and a good sound system from those. I don't need to race on the road, I'm good.
I mean, the most exciting thing to me was putting a 2m long fridge in the back of my Octavia and still being able to close the boot. I like the simple things in life. Or when I packed an entire bedroom worth of stuff in it when I was helping my mate's mum move house.

I love watching Formula 1, but street cars are not for racing. In my eyes they are for transportation only. I'm not into watching Touring, because those cars were never designed to be for racing and it's just boring to me considering formula and other open wheel cars are so much faster and better.
I feel like we are getting scammed....do you own a porshe of some sort? Lol
Nah, I have a 2006 Polo, I'm not in it for winning, it's for the depressing spectacle really ;P
I just have an image of all of us in our skodas and VW's just racing around a track super seriously.....while people look on and say "what are they doing.?......"
It might offer comfortability, but does it have practicalitiveness? :p
That's the spirit!
As far as I'm aware, they actually don't.
It might help tho, that they actually do have nice rides. Is AMuS still doing the yearly photo gallery?
Germans don't just have Autobahns, they also got a saying: 'Hubraum statt Spoiler' ;D
This. But how do you get this on a sit-on lawn mower? xD
Not joining the race in my Toyota Yaris. By the time I hit 160 km/h everyone will have already lapped me.
Then I shall have a chance in our family Suzuki Ignis, with all of it's mighty 93 hp. :D
Not stupid, I use my bike more often than my car. Good for my health and I don't need to worry about traffic. :)
I drove a (2014 I think) Yaris with the 1.33 engine and it handled surpassingly well in the snow. Most cars understeer like crazy in the snow, but its rear stepped out a bit and helped rotate the car through roundabouts etc.
I drive an Accord. Might be able to take some of you on. Lol.
Though it would be most fun to do a Top Gears type race across a foreign country to all of us, no limits.
Is 75 hp even possible. :)
Belt or chain?

Going to assume it is a mk3 Golf with the 1.8.
I had the same car, but with the 90bhp 1.8 version, my dad had the 75bhp. It wasn't really that bad tbh.
Golf mk5 1.4, it should have 73 hp, but mine has 75 hp. Tested on service one year ago :)
Damn, can't remember off the top of my head. But I'm in Canada so the specs are different, for example Canada has the 1.8 turbo as opposed to 1.4 turbo
Can we define pep.
Co's my roadboat Superb will hit 60 in 5.5 and if I want I can transport my house inside it lol.
I have an STi swapped RS I autocross and track day every once in a while....and I'm in the minority in the F1 thread lol.
