74L bug in Action
BiX - November 11th, 2004 at 12:39 PM

Well this is my bug. 74L bug, 1776cc motor. Its daily driven and also taken on the track as much as possible. It was named brutal by the honda drivers club of qld , due to the very snappy nature in which it handles while on a skid pan.

It'd be good if you could get some in-car video footage.

Good pics too.

Iam not a member of any of the offraod clubs, but may join SECORRA (?) next year. Johnyb from this site is a memeber.

Astro, iam working on the in car footage, waiting to get a golf next year so i can make this car more race dedicated (it a real daily driver at the moment) and put a cage in it with a mount for a video camera.

barls - November 12th, 2004 at 04:09 PM

i was only having a go mate cause of your avatar

sorry been a big week, quiet one job without a new one but found a new one in 4 days. and getting the car ready etc. The avatar pic has alot of dirt flying!!

it was alittle bit unerving going to the autocross track, had a look and all these guys were running slicks, but i now see y, its almost like driving on bitumen. Bloody good, fun but once you get in the loose stuff of the line, the car gets very very loose!!!
