2005 Volkswagen Passat TDI. He beat quite a few people, I'll repost this when all of the times are posted and we can see just how badly he decimated some of the more expensive sports cars.

This was his only run.

Is it a manual? I'm just curious.

5-speed auto. We left it in "manual" mode where it only shifts up when it hits redline and shifts down when it hits stall speed

*shrug* I probably could have beat him if I was used to the way my car handles. OVERSTEER EVERYWHERE so the first 1/4th of the course was barely above 1/2 throttle
