Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

          • Thanks for organising this. It was my first time on a track and I loved every moment. I will upload some pics later on.

            I hope I didn't piss off too many people with having one of the slowest cars there haha. Only about 125bhp . Still though I loved the sections out the back of the track.

            Cheers for making room for my dad and I.
