hey

What was your fastet BTG lap in your TTS (not TTRS)?? They say you managed to do it in 8.03? Is there a vid? Was the car stock?

Thanks

EDIT: I just saw the link in your signature! TTS BTG 8:03... Still wondering what specs your TTS had?

So with tts i've done tourist btg
July 2010 in 8.14 (same time than a german guy phil on manual one)
Then april 2011 in 8.03. One further lap could be better but i was obliged to stop ona red vw passat station
Racechrono said that ideal lap was 7.52

With ttrs brand new 5k km i do not want to stress mechanic
I've done 8.09 with a slowdown for crash
Ideal is 7.54
You can hear by engine sound and rev that this rs-september car was not stressed as april-tts
I think next spring i will try some lap time after changing downpipe and brakes

Tts setting was:
Full milltek 76mm non res
Revo ecu around 300cv
Kn filter
Mobil peaklife 5w50
Hpp gen4
Toyo r888 245-18 on light 18 black aircating 9j
Hr arb
Whiteline antilift
Omnicompetition front 6pot 355mm + rear 4pot 335mm with ds3000
Recaro seats cs
Schrott belts
With these setting the car was 70kg lighter than stock one
And lapping always with half fuel
Really good car

So your TTS was pretty much down for racing! Sounds good! Whats "Hr arb" and "Whiteline antilift"??

I just watched your vid again: Can you explain precisely what kind of error you made on Schwedenkreuz?? Looks pretty hairy :wacko:

Why did you change to TTRS considering your TTS was pretty much made for the NOS?

Thanks

here is replies:
- H&R anti roll bars
- Whiteline antilift KCA-316. They work to maintain the proper geometry of front wheels also during hard acceleration and deceleration. Really easy and cheap upgrade
- But TTS (and also RS) was not race car (and also are not).
My TTs maintained comfort and "economy" anyway.
These are common upgrade in order to do amatorial track-days with no permanent effects on the car (brake failure or so on).
In italy is not suggested to "run on the road" (as in all countries), so if you like to feel the performance of your car, the better is the track (safer and often cheaper)
- the error before schwedenkreutz was that the long turn on the left (done 200kmh gps) must be done pushing the gas or keeping stable. I've done the error to reduce a few the gas and the back of the car start slipping on the external side. FORTUNATELY esp sport mode and R888 has done the miracle....
- i think that with NOS you mean nordschleife, isn't it ?
TTs was pretty good and lovely anywhere (also if never a real race car like gt3, lotus and so on), but last autumn i felt in love with 5zyl sound and new s.tronic. So altough TTs was really good and with 24k km, i've done this change.
I love RS OEM sound so much that i'm really not sure if change the exahust....

Gstar,
here photos (please, i'm a new bie here; if photos are not allowed or too much let me know and i will delete them from topic)

If you and MOD agree i can place a topic on my VAG cars (R32, TTs, TTRS) as in other forum VAGOC.CO.UK
Let me know

some pics in OEM config

and some for sporty config:

ESP Sport Mode means pushing the button once shortly or does it mean to push it for about 5sec, so it says "ESP off"?

Thanks for your explanations.

Also sollte man das Schwedenkreuz immer unter Zug fahren - gut zu wissen

Correct.

Quite the opposite. Pictures are always welcome but it would be better if you open an introduction thread for you and your car and put them in there. Together with some of your R32, ...

I would be delighted to do so.
May you inform me about what section i must use to introduce me and my cars?
German language is unknown for me, unfortunately

Just single short pressure
I' not a real driver
These cars costs a lot
No one pay for my laps
So better to avoid risk
I've never driven with esp off
I find esp-sport very efficient and helpful
On wet with hpp you can do fantastic turns
Without the pain of losing control...

Obviously, this is not a real and skilled way of driving
(see paal in my video following a rent-z4 on wet NOS)

Welcome Ivo,
curious what you will achieve with a TTRS, but don't hurry.
btw: Matthias, the guy you met, his nickname is "orbitapproach". He lives only a few kilometers away from myself.

Also Welcome from me Ivo!

Was nice to meet you at the NOS and hopefully we meet again.

Greetings to Italy

Matthias

@premiumperformance:
thanks for support and suggestion.
done !
TTRS s.tronic (nickname: ül fünf) - by R-power

pffuchser:
i'm really pleased to read about you.
You're completely right.
I must not hurry:
- i'm not a real driver
- BTG is open to everybody (a lot of big crash during the 2 w.end and some directly in next video i will upload)
- TTrs is not a racecar
- racing is not my job: i go to NOS for holiday and relax. No one pay for my laps and i will pay for each kind of damage by myself
So, not hurry.
In italy we say (more or less)
a thick line between "good-job and glory" (a good lap time)
and silly&stupid and a lot of laugh of everyone (for a crash)

orbitapproach
Matthias it was a pleasure for me to be your passenger
I was delighted looking at your lines and skill
Hoping to see You all live at NOS nexty time
