WOT CAR WAS YOU IN??? GOOD VID

 

The jetta pic above

Its an 1800 16v

Although I have uprated arb's, off a Ibiza cupra R, Eibach suspension, LSD, Golf G60 brakes with braided hoses.

Engine is standard apart from a Jettx exhaust, 8v downpipe and a second exhaust cam used as an inlet giving more lift etc. Puts out 160 bhp from a standard 139 Oh and a bit of advance on the timing !!

 

I KNOW THE 1, CAN REMEMBER SEEING YOU GIVING IT TO THE GOLFS

 

nice gear miss

 

Made the cossie's look slow! WTF

 

yeah, The selector was broken by the time I got back Fixed it with some wire, lasted al day

 

I had a session peddling the Jetta round!!

Good fun reeling in more powerful machinery. People seem not to realise Combe is a "handling" track.

I had a good dice with the chap in a stripped out red mk5 RS2000. Jetta was about 2 secs a lap quicker til i got caught behind him, but then i didnt quite have the power to get by (alongside several times, but he didnt want to lift)

Spent the rest of the session 2inches off his bumper with 200cc less & a passenger as ballast...Still nailed him with a wall of death move round the outside into quarry after we passed the chequered flag (was STILL racing me! )

Not bad going for a Grandads car

Have even more fun in my own \/ \/

 

I had the same problem (although it was a fun problem!) with the same guy hammering around in my Pug 205GTi - landed up correcting the misconception on RS200-16v.com that because he was in front he was faster.

I had two sessions stuck to his rear bumper, and one where I was ahead of him = that session I left him for dead.

I'm guilty of thinking Combe is a power circuit - my Cossie loves it there, but my Pug was litterally eating Cossies and RSTs - bar a couple of well sorted examples (Micky, Doug, Basky, ABC).

Yep that Jetta was flying - shame I never saw it any of the 7 or 8 sessions I did, that could have been a good laugh

Si

 

very good indeed, some good driving and was wondering why the 3 dr was not pulling away on the straight as the saff came by you

 

Sure i saw you stuck behind the same car in the afternoon..yes it was fun but when people get alongside (as i managed several times) the slower car should give way.

 

great vid

 

Cool vid!! but that laugh

 

i thought that was my 3dr there but mine aint that slow

good vid but that laugh is annoying
