That is a common misconception.😂

On a serious note,
just the cost to upgrade to a UDL licence,
and the associated saftey gear to legally comply with ANDRA rules
is the only reason I have not attempted to run tens in my current car.

I don't think people realize the running costs of a fast Volksie...one that you only use twice a year.
It will always be a hobby for me,
and so t always comes in as a "non proiority" when no food and bills are on the table.

That being said,
I have commited to Craig to go to Warwck again this year.
...but only to keep Ross, Henry and Pete Keegan on their toes!😘

What Dave , I'm driving and you are crew chief . 😀
Yes ! as our cars get faster all costs go up with in our sport . Most racers have sponsors or large companys behide them to keep racing each here .
But with the number of race meetings growing , us self funded racers have to be more selected .
For me it's vw events first , then sport compact events , then other (testing ),then last big andra meetings .

Altered would be good but someone needs to build a type 3. Preferably an early notch.
We have beetles, a KG, T34, Kombi's and a manx or two. Even a Goggomobil
If I didn't need mine to get to work i'd use that.
