just to prove it likes a proper track....
here's it in action at its first (and mine) hillclimb, The car did pretty well, and we got most improved for the day. it runs Koni's front
inserts, KYB rear shocks, std springs and rear torsion bars, 185/65r15 tires(falken) on 5.5 inch rims and stock ride height. Iam playing around with
different sway bars on each end at the moment trying to get a compromise between road, 90%, dirt 6% and track 4%. |

I like seeing Vdubs laying down two furrows in rally race circuits. I was just talking to a bloke the other day who told me about a rally clubs track
not far from where I live. Would love to go out one weekend as their's some pretty tough bug that visit and their drivers arn't short of a
quid either.
