Hi dave, well we must have met then! and yes joe's all fired up for the new season, car's being prepared and we should be testing real soon. the caddy well thats retired this year as the rules have changed regarding the oil burners and partical collectors are now a reqirement, kind of lets the drivers behind see where they are going ha ha. giles will be back though, proberly in a diffrent car he has yet to decide what though. looking forward to seeing how the new cars go like the scirocco's, should be intresting. PLR will hopefully be running his R32 power beatle, we should also be running another RSI beatle in the team. so 3 cars to prep. really looking forward to the new season although knock hill is a dam long way to go.
and nick mate, please come along, the ECU debate is rambling on, the way we read it is all new cars to the chapionship will have to run standard ECU's no more motec or DTA systems. and it looks like people like yourself with exstensive know how with standard ECU's will be very sort after by people running new golf's ect. would certainly be good to see an R-tech mapped car running in the championship.
Hope to see some of you guys at a circit near you this year!
The VW cup in the last few years has become a very close championship! all suport is very welcome.

Well as the season has 1 more meeting left at brands, its looking good for a back to back championship win. we needed a good result today silverstone and we got a 1st and 2nd place.
considering we had a smash in the wall at snet, with 2 races that day DNF's the season isnt going so bad. its all down to brands now!
the only mk2 in it is now a mk4 :cry:
unfortunatly the MK2 has retired from the VW cup to be replaced by a MK4 but dige did win 2 races at donington park so it has been a good change for him from the MK2.
Iv got pics of that caddy van rolling at knockhill !
yeap winne bless him knows how to roll a caddy van!
and just so everyone knows the scirocco GT have both had the engine swaped to the 2 liter golf GTi engine as the toyota bottom end in the GT's kept throwing rods and they have blown up 3 engines i think. the new scirocco R has the golf engine in as standard! keep clear of the toyota rubbish bottom ends in the sicroccos somthing to remeber when buying in the future maybe.
Roll on brands for the double!

I heard about the front end knock.... no broken bones thank goodness!
Has the closest rival played his joker yet? Good to hear Joe's doing well, fingers crossed.
