Racers forum. PLZ vote
Okay... third time lucky (did'nt enter subject last time) 
Who wants to see a racers forum. I personally think VW's have a speedy presence across oz, so it's time to see if you feel the same.
Vic: Beetle cup, VWCV drag nights, hot golfs and polos, formula vee's, VWCV motorkhana's, khana/autocrosses, rallies, hillclimbs, economy
runs, etc, etc, etc....
NSW: Hillclimb scene, openwheelers (formula vees/libras), Porsche club onslaught, V-Force, Sydney's new drag strip, etc, etc, etc....
QLD: Off-roading scene... Need I say more! Even if it's only the mates trialing each others cars, it's a sport!
Even Auswide, VW's won't die when it comes to a challenge. Even in recent years we've seen successes in offroading, Targa Tasmania,
forced induction 1/4 mile monsters, etc... Pretty darn impressive for a 70+ y.o 4 cyl basis.
So vote away people! I'll try and cover all opinions as best I can.

C'mon Jak, you should know anything goes with customising VW's. As long as it has swing-axle and 135's :P
The pics... Can't remember exactly. They were on my computer. I've just accumilated them over heaps of surfing.

It is if one of the valves is burnt and you only have 40psi comp in that cylinder.
