I'm going to assume you intended this for the STREET racing section.
This is road racing, as in road course (on a track)...

Although your question is probably far to vague for the street racing section as well.

I got beat pretty bad by a jetta once. But he had about 10k into it and about 20lbs of boost. plus judging by his white tail pipe id say he was running race gas.

There is only ONE really well setup VW that I know of that has been really competitive in my SoloSprint (time trials) series. The guy is a whole province away from me, so I rarely see his car anyways. Otherwise, even my '02 Z28 when it was STOCK would hand VW's their *** .

Don't bring a knife to a gun fight .
