Damn Kevin, you can't stop, can you?  AGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH   :)

Anyways...  I think that the Audi R8 series race cars are bad ass, I just think
it would be an incredible feeling to roll up on those Viper/Porsche drivers with
my 900hp Mk4 GTI, and give them a run for their money.

Oh BTW, I just picked up the latest "The Golf" magazine from the airport, and it
features a Mk4 GTI with two VR6's (1 front/1 rear) that can reach speeds of
200.7 mph!!!  I just can't believe people are building these machines.

c-ya,
