I'm enjoying this so far - the face pics were a shock. That's one hell of a way to think about safety first from here on I guess!
It's good to have a goal - sounds like it will be a solid build.

Can bags (did I read that you have those in your mk5?) be engineered to be road legal?

What apprenticeship pays $1000/week? I'm in the wrong game if that's what apprentices get these days.....what happened to earning almost nothing as an apprentice?

Anyway, nice starting point and ideas, good luck with it all!!

If I may ask what motor and gearbox combination are you going to run because I found a website that sells kits to make my 02M gearbox sequential...

Here is the site if you want to browse around...

02M Sequential Gearbox Volkswagen - KAPS Professional Racing Gearboxes

Only The Good Die Young 45

Been busy with work, holidays and now that my mk5 has been written off I have a lot more motivation to work on the mk1!
