Title: pic request please - mk3 race car
Post by: Grim_Reaper on 07 February 2008, 18:48
hi guys...if you guys would be kind enough to post pics of golf mk3 track style cars :D i know there isnt a very high demand for mk3's as track cars as the mk2's handle better and are some what lighter...i understand there is someone on here with a silver vr6 track car :D but cant find any more gen on it...i even went through the golf picture thread and saved over 100 pics of golfs that i liked :D  :laugh:

thanks  :evil:

Don't let them put you off.
My Mk3 is stripped out for track use and is good fun.
Out handles and is faster in a straight line than my brothers 306 GTI, and lots of other similar aged cars.
If the Mk2 is a better track car it would also be a better road car, why aren't you all driving Mk2's.

Cheers

Paul

lol cheers paul...not being put off, still going as the plan was intended...my mk3 already handles really well because i have eibach (SP?) suspension all round with toyo's on 15" wheels so it sticks really well, and goes nicely off the line :D

got any pics of yours???? :D


MK3 and race aint in the same sentance.
