raced a VW jetta
Raced a jetta on the way home from my girlfriends x-mas party 80-100 (I was dd). He started with a 1/2 car on me he held the 1/2 car until 90 and I pulled even and was starting to pull at 100 then my gf made me stop 
. When I looked in my rear veiw i realized that a taurus was behind us trying to get in on it, he got wasted. I slowed down and he flew past me and caught the jetta and preceaded to get smoke. My girlfriends drunk *** just fell down the stairs 
so i have to go. ahhh the fun of being a DD

It wasnt a VR6 though was it? If it was a 1.8T, then I'm very impressed, but it sounds like you raced a standard Jetta or a TDI. Stiil, good kill, even though my wife trys to stop my racing too.

. I stoped and even though I had him at the time I did not have him by enough to call it. Oh well I lover her to death and should not race with her in the car anyway. Not shure what jetta it was though at 100 mph it is good to look at the road.

Still I'd say with your mods, you proabably just raced a standard Jetta. I had a friend in Mayport who had a Golf GTI 1.8T and stock he beat an SE-R SpecV with exhaust.

Couldn't have been a std. Jetta/TDI, the std. Jetta has had the same 115hp 2L for two years now, I know, I used to have a car w. that same engine, those cars are slooow. Half because their engine is terrible, half because they weigh 3000lbs.
Can't imagine what else it would have been, the 1.8Ts are pretty fast as are the VR6s, I can't think of any VWs greater than the 2.0L/TDI that a Civic would pull on, except maybe an Si.

Rep Power: 0 Even if the jetta was a 1.8T it wouldnt of given you that much of a fight. Jettas are slow. I beat the same kid twice (not using spray) on two seperate occasions in a jetta 1.8T taking my normal route to school. He sucked gettin his car off the line which may be the ultimate reason why I won both times, but it just goes to show you how close they are in comparison. They're slow cars just like ours until you start modifying them.

yeah but most of that is done in coordination with a boost controller as well as an aftermarket BOV.
