What is the fastest you have had your MKVI GTI up to and how did it go?

x2. This is the safe and proper way to see the top performance of your car.

I managed to hit 180km/h on the front straight of the River's Edge Road Course (Mission Raceway, BC) and I could've broken 210km/h easy if I had a clear run in front of me (and wasn't in the novice group with no passing allowed, haha).

Course *is* a little short, though... now I want to try a longer course like PIR in Portland.

Glad to here you are tracking your car. For the ones who never done it they are missing the best experience you could ever have in your car. How about hearing from others with track experience.:)

My fastest was around 100mph during a Thunderstorm at the straight on Cayuga speedway.

The car was hydroplanning a bit and the TCS was cutting power constantly, but I'm decently impressed by the stock Dunlop a/s in the rain. :thumbup:

Mucho Audi A4s and TTs blowing by me when I was doing about 100.

A legal 120 MPH at Lime Rock Park. Anyone can speed on the interstate. Get your car on the straight at 120 and then go into a 180 degree turn. That's driving. Want more info. on tracking your street car contact me.

What kind of mods do you have on your GTI that gets you to 120mph at the front straight of Limerock?

I assume R-compounds, chip tune, and maybe bbk? I'm not a professional but do track regularly, and having driven Limerock on various types of cars, I have a hard time believing how a mk6 GTI can go that fast even at Limerock's fastest straight, unless it's nicely modified. Only cars I've driven at those speeds at that track have been high-powered M-cars and Porsches. I know an E92 M3 gets into the 120's easily, and a GT3 close to 130. I've also been able to get an RS4 right at 120mph on stock pirelli street tires but that was on a very good lap with no traffic.

Perhaps you're a professional race driver, so I'm not trying to call BS or anything, but I'm just really curious what kind of mods it takes to get a GTI to run that fast at Limerock's straight. I have yet to drive a GTI there but I did drive another GTI at a similar track here in the midwest with an even longer straight, and the GTI was running out of steam at just over 110mph and it would've taken a much longer straight to actually get to 120mph, which Limerock doesn't have.

Fastest in US: 130 mph
Fastest anywhere: 146 mph
Fastest in my wife's GTI: 115 mph
Fastest in my Subaru: 125 mph

All on a closed course, of course ;)

BTW, most cars seem to get shrug off speed until 120mph. Then it seems a bit scary afterwards.

I love cops and I support them. I don't care if you speed when there are no cars around. But weaving through the gaps really annoy me.

My car dies out at 121mph. I once went 135 as a passenger in a ferrari 360 modena in the opposite lane of traffic. But the fastest I have ever been was 146mph in bmw 740.
