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,

      Exactly, Lora. (Talk about them deluding themselves.) The wavelength of Red light on the spectrum is approx. 700 nanometres and the spectrum procedes thru to 400 nanometres (violet) ... covering approx. 430 - 750 Terahertz for the electromagnetic spectrum. Long wavelengths are slower than short wavelengths ... ergo Red is slower than White (or Blue ... ask Eddy).

          There's plenty of Perth people around, just keep your eyes open on the events section!
          PPGA is the Pulsar forum (Perth division). I used to be on there and there's a few other members here who used to have Pulsars too.
          Cheers
          Ah right yes i have seen that forum. If I dont have any luck selling my pulsar I might try advertising it on there.

          I will keep my eye out on the events section, would be good! And I do agree with everyone that red is faster. Its a scientific fact.

                roflmao! A quick reminder about the Polo colour chart again. The choices are:
                FLASH RED

                or
                mum's fridge
                galvanising primer (it'll look good when they finish the paint job)
                dark and hard to keep clean, and
                very dark and very fkn hard to keep clean
                2015 White German SUV
                2013 White German hatch

                  I have heard that there is actually a reason for red being faster. Less coats of paint is required to paint a red car, which means it is (very marginally) thinner and more aerodynamic than other colours. But also fades more and quicker.
