	Okay, what's up with this, then?  I got kinda curious as to the º mile
and 0-60 times on the VR6 GTI and Corrado, Jetta and came up with the
following...

June 96 Motor Trend:
			º mile		0-60
	VR6 GTI..........................15.5............................7.1
	Corrado SLC.................15.6............................7.2

November 95 Road & Track

	VR6 GTI..........................15.9...........................7.5
	Jetta GLX.......................16.1...........................7.7

	Looks like I might be able to kick the stuffing out of these bad bwoys
if these numbers are correct.  Anyone have some more trustworthy data? 
I never liked R&T or MT, but at the time I thought they had some ccol
articles.  

	Just thought I'd let ya'll know that I shit kicked a 93 Nissan 300ZX
last night.  Stock, non-turbo, but still a 300ZX.  We took it all the
way to fifth gear @ about 170km/h (105mph I think), and I had him ALL
the way.  He looked very stupid...whereas I just looked Stoopid :)

	Ahhh, the frivolousness of youth.  Who's next...I'm still stoked.
