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,

              Hahaha no. I’m not doing meth injection. There’s definitely benefits but risks/insurance implications it’s just not worth it.

              If it was a dedicated track car then I’d consider it.

                    • Good luck, car looks ready to roll.
                      Does the fire extinguisher get in the way for the passengers feet?

                        I've managed to install the fire extinguisher on the reverse side of the mount so it doesn't intrude hardly at all into the passenger footwell. The only downside is that it does stop you from moving the seat fully forwards, however I think it's a reasonable compromise.

                              Yes great fun. It’s not often that you get a chance to drive down these roads with no speed limit and no traffic.

                                I'm surprised there wasn't more of a gap between cars though?
