what's the fastest you've ever taken your Scirocco?

[drew at scirocco.cs.uoguelph.ca (Drew MacPherson)]

My bad.  The numbers were actually 3.38 or 3.16 - and you can find them in 
the same place you'll find that stroker crank - buckled up to A3 TDI's.

Forget trying to get the car to move with anything less than 145lb-ft @ 
1500 rpm with a final drive like that though.
