[@Raaid0093]

Something strange about the mark 2. Same power and less weight but looses. How?

[@navhassan2871]

Looses time due to having to shift manually. If MK2 had DSG it would extremely close if not faster

[@varski76]

I'm the R32 owner the gear changes are not me it's had a DQ500 RS3 box swap and is on EMU Black on the engine side we didn't have enough time to dial it in properly, in manual mode I should have full control but it would short shift itself on some shifts then another shift hit the limiter and will not change up when I pull the paddle unless I back off! Launch control is also not working properly i need more time I will be back when it's dialed in 😬
