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,

      I didn't really get to see, but sounds like it went well! I put it down to the new livery...
      I'll tell you one thing that I'm coming to realise now that I am finally getting more comfortable throwing this thing around, and getting used to the ceramics...I REALLY need sport seats, STAT. I'm sliding all over the interior lol...
      I was saying the same thing after this recent happy laps.
      The group have now done a lot of these and we are getting familiar with proper/suitable driving lines and braking points which is good for maintaining a quick pace but it results in me sliding around in my seat through Karusel and Hungry.

      Better bolstered seats (Recaro's etc) are a pricey upgrade though and require an engineering cert in QLD from memory which starts putting you into the realms of the sprint series rather than happy laps.

      • I will be retrofitting either the standard Sports seats(which incidentally are the same ones used on Golf Rs, just with a different cover) or the GT carbon buckets depending on how brave I am and if they are available at the time.

        • I will gladly take your stock seats as payment for the next happy laps outing...................

              I would have thought they would be a bit better than that considering it's the flagship sports car.
              Maybe i have a superficial image of them in my head.

                  No not at all mate.. All in good fun. My mrs would have been the same those first 2 corners off the straight can be pretty hairy lol What APR bits you got going on.. The suspension mods you've got have obviously made a decent difference on the corners that's for sure.

                            I just need to follow your Audi around Dylan so i can pretend i have a sporty car with all that noise!

                            Was taking it a bit easier out there this time as wifey wanted me home safe after Bianchi's incident in the F1 and the motorbike incident at Lakeside 2 weeks ago.

                            Looking forward to some photos, will try to get someone lined up for the next one to do some dedicated sideline shots.
