Agree, the CSL is an awesome all-rounder with real track ability. My modified Evo VI, although fun, was an expensive pain in the ass at times and not half the car of the CSL IMHO. Evo's sound shite too!

Im more than happy with the CSL

Just find it strange that a Golf Gti can post similar times

Honestly thought from how they feel on the road that it would of ran quicker

but thats life! Obvious that the CSL's natural habitat is at the Ring

trundles off to borrow a vbox to collect my own data

Not surprised at all by these results. CSL is a standard car against modified Evo's. In a straight line there's no contest, especially with the CSL's intergalactic gearing. One with a 4.1:1 diff would have been an interesting comparison.

Throw in a decent track and look at the lap times. That would have the CSL climbing the chart. I remember lapping Spa with a very rapid, flame spitting Evo blasting past me like I was in reverse on the Kemmel straight after Eau Rouge. On every lap, by the time we were going through Pouhon he was holding me up.

Absolutely, shows how good the CSL is at what it does, i cant wait to get mine out on track and then it'll be time for some payback

_Nathan_ · 12-03-2009, 02:09 PM

Indeed - let's go evo hunting at Spa :D

**AlexGTT** · 13-03-2009, 12:10 PM

Indeed, you read my mind Nathan. Roll on Spa in May. Your going on that one aren't you? Saw your CSL after cage install, etc. Looking very fruity. Be interested in the weight. Ant told me it hadn't been on the scales yet.

_Nathan_ · 13-03-2009, 01:11 PM

Still hasn't to my knowledge, waiting on new springs to come in. honestly not sure what it'll come in at, still got glass in the doors and I'm keeping air con too. Add in the weight of the cage and who knows.

Yeah, going on it, can't wait

If there's anything that will make you keep the CSL, then that's gonna be it!

I'll probably see you out there then...
