look in performance VW 08/05, features a mk1 golf race car, 2.0 16v n/a at 200hp, and a mk2 scirocco running 225hp!

The scirocco i seen alot on the 1/4 mile races, and is very very fast (13.7 quarter mile from a FWD), and produces 225bhp from a 2.0 16v on throttle bodies, the guys name is Paul Bargate!
2 Mk2's, both in bits, 2 Rocco's soon to become 1, and a Polo 1.3.....
The polo is the only car with MOT and in working order...Doh!!

not sure about the rears, my gti's lways had problem with lockin the rear wheels into corners and stuff, and with NO weight in the back, think it will make it worse, the drums provide a good handbrake, and should lock as easy with the foot brake (obviously if i find i hav a problem wen i drive it i will look into ths more!!

Probably an issue with the rear brake compensator valve seizing up or needing adjustment.  Drums will be fine on the rear, the ammount of braking done at the back is minimal anyway.
