    First track day of the year on Saturday March 06th at Rockingham. Great day with Circuit days/Northloop.

    Had a minor Golf>tyre stack interface due to cutting a corner maybe a bit too fine.

    I've wet-flatted the wing edge with 1200 to remove the paint from the tyres.

    New headlamp. (12.50+vat) new flasher lenses (8.58)

    Fixed.

    Who said all a mk2 Golf with a boat anchor does is understeer?

    Welcome back! I'm sure that sideways move is handy for bringing the big boat into the dock!

    Oh, if anyone spots a sensibly priced supercharger kit for a 12v VR6 in any classifieds.... drop me a line.I want a Rotrex supercharger, but a Vortech V9 will do...

    Rotrex C30-84

    You sure about the charger? From what I have seen, they don't produce low range torque and only wind up at high revs due to the unconvetional design.

    They sound great but that's it in my opinion.
    Last one I tested on the rolls had slighty above std torque and low revs which then slowly incremented with a peak in torque at around 4800rpm. On a uncammed VR6 expect to have power peak similar to a mildly tuned BAM 1.8 T. With torque at around 240lbft.
    If that is want you want fine. If not think GT30 matey for proper entry power [:D].
