Floody,
Welcome at any time mate - just appreciate that sometimes in a service park during a rally things can get pretty hectic -so please don't think we are rude if this is the case.

Yeah I imagine a photo shoot will be hard. Ideally before or after the rally would be best but Sat is the only day I can make it.

That car looks FREAKING MEAN! Is that the 1.8 20v in atmo form? You guys are limited to a single 65mm throttle body right?

I wish i could get down to canberra to watch! Good luck and go beat the balls off Batesy's cars!

It's not the 1.8 20v ... it's the 2.0ltr standard block with atmo and 'goodies'.

Its actually a 16v 2.0L, they apparently couldnt get the power out of the 20v.

BTW Marius have a safe trip and go kick some toyota butt

Edit - specs added to first post

Pete i couldnt agree more, he said he would, i was hoping one of the Sydney guys could get him one. If not ill get him one by Brisbane.

Yeah ok, so they obviously couldn't get the airspeed running the 20v head unforced because the ports are too large. I thought that may be the case with them and have always wondered.

[Bluerex]

I guess as safety officer on SS1 I could insist on having a Watercooled sticker on display before he starts the stage - it is a safety consideration after all.... kidding

See you soon Marius!

O....M.....G....

wish you came down to do the Rally of Lithgow as a shakedown before Canberra!! Would have loved to see this bad boy in action.

We even had Alistair McRea running as Car 0!!! Unfortunately he was hampered by 2 diffs failing so his day was cut short.

All the very best Marius and Gerald. Do us proud!!!
Looks awesome and if it sounds half as good as Simon Evans old Mk3, it will be fantastic!!! Puts the hairs up on my neck, the sound of a well tuned 4 cyl. revving its heart out.
I wish you all the best of luck thgis coming weekend.

Keep it alive until Rally of SA. I'm sure our Club (Volkswagen Club of SA) will be controlling a stage via Mal Dodd as Stage Commander.

I hope I've got a day off to go & watch.
