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,

                  lol really? my mate is a mechanic at Cummins in Perth... he reckoned getting the rocker covers off were a bitch on those engines.
                  still he was pretty excited to be in the engine room

                  • Nice pics Mark, you use a 40D?

                    Did you do any study in photography, or are you self taught?

The flashes help to freeze and really define the rider, while everything not lit by the flash gets blurred.
                      I've read about using flash to "freeze" the action when using a slow shutter - that's incredible work for an action shot! VERY creative!

                          • Awesome Photos Phil...Hope you didn't have to worry too much about FOD or Roo's all the way out there. The new paint schemes look nice on the H models too. Better than the old Cam scheme.
