It goes pretty well, sounds well too Si, but the 5yr old coil overs which need rebuilding let it down on track.

Awesome, awesome car.
A stripped-out Mk2 GiT is on my list....

[intrepid44]

Wow awesome Mk2!

my bro has a Mk3 VR6 with practically the same engine modifications, should be interesting to see what it makes on the dyno.

You should try entering it in the VW Cup: http://www.vw-cup.co.uk/

Thinking of getting a MK2 Golf as a Track car myself..

Any views -
1.8 8v
1.8 16v

All is will have done is cage, lowered and uprated brakes.

I have a MK1 GT3 for my main track car, but want something to learn the 'Ring well..

Wonderful car mate, one of the ninest I've seen on here recently.

Hi, nice car, I'm just building a Mk2 trackslag - what suspension are you working with?

Sh*te, missed that first time around... looks fabulous!
