Hi all,

My brother and I own a Mk2 Jetta track car, 2L 8v with a few tweaks here and there Cool

Indeed Very Happy
I'll give a brief rundown of the history of the car when I get a few pics up.
Do you venture to the Ring Andrew?

I have been before yes Smile

Do you post on Northloop by chance?

I went in April this year - I flew/rented and took a Focus C-Max round. It was a great car to learn the track in as it had a fantastic chasis, pin sharp breaks but not alot of power. So I followed it dot to dot and found it exhilarating!

Once I parked the C-Max up, I blagged a few laps on the bounce in a Caterham

and a few in a 2.0 16v mk2

I got a go in a couple of BMW E46 sports too.

Can't wait to go again!

I am on Northloop yes. But by no means an expert!
Your right though, much better to go in a slower car an get a feel for the place. It's addictive though Very Happy
I do believe that's Nige's previous golf in the picture.

Indeed that is Nige's Golf. I recorded the lap on my phone:

It was a good car until he crashed it Very Happy

The Caterham belongs to Nick [Leavingeasy].

Thought the Caterham looked familiar.
I guess you saw Nige's rebuild in a month.
