Then I personally think it's a good idea. I just felt the question needed to be asked as I'm not so familiar with The Pod - I've only been there once (when I dropped my trousers on the Start Line).

^^^ It does sound like a bit of fun  :driver:

So if you can put out some details elsewhere Ben to get a few R32's/VXR's/etc along that would be good Ben  :happy2:

RR make sure your rear tyres/wheels are okay. I had another dream about the Pod.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I'm getting worried about attending The Pod, what with stealth having wet dreams and Ben's nightime activities!!

Otherwise, should I revise the image as I suggested? - It's not necessary but does add visual impact.

I would post my proposal here for approval first. It's easily and quickly done.

Go for it Robin, as you said it has visual impact and will help attract attention  :happy2:

...with stealth having wet dreams...

It wasn't a wet dream!

Three of us turned up late (me, RR and someone else) to the Pod (it was 5pm). VW for some reason fitted all GTIs with one wheel smaller than the rest - a 17.5 " alloy on the right rear offside. Because everyone else was early, they managed to fit a temporary 18" alloy+tyre. RR and the other person paid to have a temporary 18" fitted. I thought 'fudge this' and went and bought an 18" pescara so all four wheels were the same.

I blame it on the dominos pizza I had last night.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Steve/TC/Greenouse - ^ Please approve or revise ASAP ^ :happy2:

We'll have to decide how to arrange the actual shoot-outs but there's plenty time for that.
