Glenn,

Please turn off the caps lock and stop 'yelling'.

To answer your question, a Mk I Scirocco 1.6 is probably one of the cars to have in ITC. They are consistant winners/front runners.

And no, you can't put a 1.8 in it and run it in ITB.

Weight for an ITC Scirocco is 2040#, with either of the 1.5s or the 1.6. And yes, you can remove the pass. seat.

Glenn,

Both the Rabbit and the Scirocco will run up front. I believe the Scirocco weighs more to make up for the better aerodynamics. Both will run up front in ITC.
