Watching this really does make me want one of these. Or at least a car with a similar engine

Yeh that's a pretty poor figure when it can easily be beaten by a nearly a second! I thought VW were modestly out by only a couple of tenths of a second.

thats with auto DSG box and launch control no real driver skill involved! You try doing that in a manual!

The DSG and Launch control still won't knock off a second!

All you gotta do is launch the manual at 3000 rpm with ESP off and there you have your launch control, all it takes then is a quick gear change.
