Lol 
should have just followed it till it broke down
Well it was starting to get way over the speed limit and I thought "nahh its not worth it". Seems like every time I speed I always get caught - was busted on my L a few days before the practical test, and suspended for 3 months on new year's day (double demerited) for speeding when I was on P.
All back when I was young and stupid

last night?
same engine?
i reckon the amount of fuel and stuff in the car makes a big difference on 8v'ers.
i stripped mine of back seats and spare wheel with barely any petrol and i could tell quite a difference.
obviously the way you drive and change gear plays the most important role.

No idea, though it looked exactly the same as mine.
Come to think of it one experience stopped me from ever speeding again: was pouring rain one night, very low visibility and I was driving at about 80km/hr down a straight road on the right lane. All of a sudden this f**kwit from a side street on the right turned in, so I was forced to take the left lane. Pissed off, I tried to overtake him but he wouldn't let me in. There was a petrol tanker parked ahead, so I slammed on the brakes, and missed hitting it by literally a few millimeters - otherwise...

the thing i noticed most on my 8v (in fact, the mk2 16v as well) is the weather conditions - if its a cold wet night, the car goes far better than on a warm day.
obviously this doesnt help with racing though lol
