ya I am pretty sure the MK7 was already taking care of the 6MT's in it's class, including the Golf R. Smash the gas and go, let the computers do the rest.Not sure anyone will be surprised by this outcome

Better be a cold day. Those things melt in five minutes down here, supposedly the 2021 got cooling improvements, but I think it's still going to suck at the track unless you tackle some serious cooling upgrades.I’ve never seen my brother in law outlaunch anything in his type r tbh
but take them to the track. That’s when the type r thrives.
Nah. Assholes think u can just indefinitely do lap after lap after lap. My brother in law can do three laps before he’s not comfortable with oil pressureBetter be a cold day.

Stage 1 fixes that big time. And even then, with the spark based launch control it isn’t greatCivic is kind of a pain to launch, and its coming from a GTI 6MT which was also kind of a pain to launch. Like the guy said if you just drop the clutch it bogs super easily. I had to slip both the Type R and GTI when I actually try to launch the car.
Honestly owning the Type R now, there are things I like and there are things I definitely don't. And things I just find disappointing with the name plate like Type R and what it supposed to mean....
Umm, why is at an asshole thing? Isn't it fair to assume that a car built with tracking in mind could actually track? From what I've seen down here, the Hondata tunes just make it melt down even sooner.Nah. Assholes think u can just indefinitely do lap after lap after lap.

Not too many cars can just indefinitely lap over and over. Brake and brake temps, tranny temps etc. they’re not gonna hold upUmm, why is at an asshole thing?

To be fair, I've only tracked rwd cars, but my Miata would lap all day in 105 degree heat, as would my M Coupe. Both just had better pads and fluids, nothing fancy. The M Coupe had a large oil cooler and full metal radiator, but that was it and the Miata was bone stock. The only car I've had issues with was the stupid 135i, which lacked an LSD and had stupid six piston Brembos that were all looks and no actual performance. The actual pistons broke. That thing sucked.Not too many cars can just indefinitely lap over and over. Brake and brake temps, tranny temps etc. they’re not gonna hold up
there’s cars that are very well considered in terms of cooling. The zl1 for instance, everything has a cooler. Including the diff. And even then, they can’t take more than 4-5 laps at my local track.
a shit box 4 banger, not too many can do three laps just like that. All oem parts and stock.
my Wrx (not stock) with larger intercooler and radiator can barely do three. Half way into the third I only feel grip in the rear tires man
