Since I started driving on track I've toned the abuse down quite a lot, because calling most of the other people on the track c*nts just makes me wince when I watch it back, even if it is true.  :grin:
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

I know what you mean, but sometimes you can't help it.
 Some people need to be told they are tossers as they lack the wit, intelligence and self awareness to realise they are tossers of their own volition.
Plus it adds a little something to the video overall.

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

Dropped a couple of flywheels off with JNL Racing on Monday.

They'll come back at 6.25kg in due course.

Yeah - one for the Golf and one for the Corrado.

Start out around 10kg.

Taking them to 6kg will make the car rev a lot snappier.
