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,

  • Hi nat225,
    Thanks for sharing the video! That was me in the black TT until you passed me at 2:44!
    Thanks to Gavin for organising the morning's drive, was great to attend,
    Cheers...

    • Great morning Gav. Can I request that the Tiguan is banned from now on. I am not happy with their behaviour of going so bloody quick when they are are supposed to be a soft-roader! How can I justify my R with that on the track!

        but a tiguan tsi is effectively a mk6 gti powered with mk6 R 4motion awd (and better weight distribution) and has TTRS 7 speed dsg box 😉

        • aha nat225, thank goodness it has that good gear. What a great combo. Reminds me a bit of a forester GT I had years ago. Great, quick all-rounder. Real sleeper at the lights.

            There's a few ex-forester GT drivers amongst the VW converts. Wolf in sheep's clothing.

                    • What! Increase MY skills. Doesn't the car do that for me? That's why I bought the R to offset my inabilities.

                      • Hey guys here is an on-board video from me. Sorry I didn't put it up sooner but I've been running off 4G internet till Saturday since the happy laps due to a connection issue with iiNet. Thankfully it has been sorted out (on the most part) and I was able to upload my video.

                        It is the last half of the event because I was so rusty and had to find my lines again in the first half of the video (it's been about 8-9 months since I was last year iirc). The cones at the top of Eastern Loop keep catching me out though. I placed the GoPro inside the car this time for a change. Unfortunately there is something broken inside my GoPro hence why you may hear a rattle every now and then. Enjoy



                        Also thanks for the trackside videos and pictures everyone
