Hi i just had a vxr up my **** on the m6 so i put my foot down in my standard s3. It left me like i was standing still are they that quick. Or is my s3 very slow

As said remap will help but i wouldnt be holding out hopes of winning even with one

Dave_Bayern said:S3 is still a great car, but the Astra's are 4/5 years newer than most S3's, and with similar power, modern technology means the car can apply that power more efficiently despite driver input.
I regularly get overtaken by Micras

How many pies you hiding in the boot!!>??
Dave_Bayern said:Evo say the Astra is faster too. I'd believe the motoring magazine with the means to test the cars to their full limits a TINY bit more than 'you and your mate'.
Did you even read the other posts in this thread?
