1M Leon Cupra race car (Sooty)

[CupraAndy]

Hi all,

Been on PH for years but never done a Readers Ride. I have one running on another forum, hopefully it works on here:

Had my petrol 1.8T Cupra for 3 years now as a track car, but 2012 ive been building it ready to race in the MSV track day trophy in 2013. Its widely known in the VAG world for being called sooty (yellow and black).

Im lucky to have been able to sign some helpful sponsors: Forge Motorsport, SA Fabrications & Petronas Oil. Thank you for your fantastic support.

Andy,nice motor be good to see you/car at a track day sometime,are you doing ultimate vag at brands next month?

The 6 pot brakes you are running is this just front or rear as well?

Cheers guys, yer I like being the underdog not many people expect it from a little yellow whippet.

I just have the Forge 6 pots on the front and standard rears as the backs don't really do anything at all. Car weighs 1200kg and pretty much endos when I stamp on the brake!

Unfortunately can't make the vag day at brands as its a friends wedding. They weren't too impressed when I asked if we could just go to the evening doo! I'll be at Trax and Forge action day at Combe.
