Rod went 6.99 @100mph before his throttle shaft broke.

nothing boring about that Mat , its great to see all the VW's that competed . I personally spent a lot of time in the pits and attending to 5 cars
competing from Team WPVW so I didn't get to see all of the action , looking forward to the professional video of Warwick 2012

Ha ha...wish I had my camera too..... that was a nice jump, ask Westi, I took him for a blast to wake him up
I had asked Craig if I could use the run off area.....you know, just keep going into the sand and do some roosters....he didn't think it was a good
idea

Golf R
So like everyone on here I have my own little story to tell .
I last raced the Golf at Heathcote in Vic a month earlier where it ran a 11.8 , after I drove back I parked the car and occassionaly used it to get
parts . On the Fri night I did a quick once over , checked the tyre pressures and left at 1am on Sat morning . The whole time on the new england
highway it was bucketing down , occassionaly aqua-floating and the traction control light coming on . I got in at about 10ish only stopping for fuel
once . I unpacked the car , went off to scruteneering , then unbolted the exhaust and went racing . My best time during the weekend was a 7.75 @ 91.6
mph . I roughly worked out the DSG launch control delay which made getting good lights a regular occurance . Got into the finals and won . 0.56
reaction , running 7.82 on a 7.8 dial in with the mk1 TDI breaking out . My speech was terrible , I think next time I'll prepare something a little
better . I stayed with Mat Berry Sunday night before driving off into the darkness at 4:30am to pick up a Golf 1.8t engine and gearbox near Brisbane .
I made it back to Sydney at 8pm on Monday , and , wait for it . The trip computer showed 8.5l/100kms average fuel consumption . I'm starting to think
its possible for this Golf to run a 6 second pass and be able to use under 8l/100kms of fuel driving there and back .... The benefits of modern
technology and the right modifications and the impossible can be achieved !
Bring on the VW Shootout 2013 ! I'm hoping to get some promo girls happening to spice things up
