looks great Steve, didn't realise it was set so low. Is there enough travel on the suspension to get the best from it when sitting so low?  :smiley:

Finished off the prep for the weekend and got the slicks bagged up and loaded already  :driver: :driver:



Well impressed with the wheels bags for the money  :smiley:

Bring on Blyton (and showing a certain bath tube owner the error of his ways  :P)

Are those wheel bags standard ones from VW dealer? It's probably in your thread somewhere  :rolleye: But what are the wheels 18 or 19?

It has settled quite a bit on the front so does need raising up a few mm's, however the performance of the car today was awesome so it certainly didn't impact anything being that low. I really can't praise Kev and Pie's at KPM enough, they have really helped me create a car far better than I thought a Mk5 could be  :notworthy: :notworthy:

Apart from one off today (on the only section of the track with arnco  :scared:) it was really showing up some far more serious machines  :rolleye:

Both Top Cat and John_O did a few passenger laps with me today and seamed very impressed with how well the car performed too  :smiley:

Still flabbergasted how good this car was today :stupid: I never even knew that a front wheel drive car could be this good on track let a lone a Mk5.  :notworthy:
Simply amazing. Dont know whether it was because of the slicks, but if it was, then they should be banned for cheating.  :confused: Crazy all round ability.   :congrats:
I would like to see a faster GTI round a circuit.  :driver:
