Hey...very nice times. Looks like the timeslip to my Rx-8, almost exact, aand I ran it at sac raceway too.

 

haha sweet! i have 2 friends that used to have scirocco's, one the same gen as urs and the other the previous gen... the guy that had one like urs was bone stock, but the other guy, damn he put in a vr6 engine, lowered it, mass weight reduction, converted the rear breaks to disc instead of drum (4 wheel disc breaks!) that thing could stop on a ******* dime, it was insane... and then for exhaust he had straight pipe to a glasspack it was loud

 

what do sirroccos run stock?
