I'm pretty sure that the person I bought my car from kept it stock, AND I'm pretty sure I run faster than 17's. Out by my house there is a hill (probably 30%) that my friend and I race up. It's kind of fun, and we both try to hit 60+ by the time we get to a particular driveway with is about 1/5 mile away from the start. On a warm day, I can hit 66, on a cold, 57-60. My friend own a 95 Eagle Talon (not a TSi though) and he gets to about the same speed. We once raced and he beat me by about 1/2 of a car length. Anyways, the point I'm trying to get at is that if I can hit 60+ on a HILL within 1/5 mile and I've guestimated about 80 on a 1/4 level strip (I actually went out to a public road and painted lines), shouldn't I be hitting better than 17's? There's a civic out at the track that hits 16's (ewwww) at top of about 70. What's up with that? Shouldn't I be doing better?
