Question Tracking a tiptronic
Just wondering, has anyone taken a Tip Turbo to a track? is this fun? do other drivers laugh? I've never been but would like to go. TIA

There was a test done in a magazine a little while ago and if I remember the driver was saying the tip was quicker around the track


I may be wrong though. I think it was an Excellence article.

Nothing wrong with tracking the tip They can laugh all they want but more often than not a Tip will out-run a 6 speed...
