Andy,
The data that I have seen shows the curb weight of the Golf IV to be <50# lower than that of the NB. Not exactly what I would call "much lighter". If anything, the Golf IV should be in ITC w/ the NB, at the same weight (w/ possibly an adjustment up or down, based on the aerodymanics). The Jetta IV is actually heavier than the NB (on the order of 75# IIRC). And the Jetta should be at the same weight as the Golf, based on the precedent set in ITS, when the weights of the VR6 Golf and Jetta were equated. Oh yeah, and that would also be one of those cases where the weight of a car was 'corrected', more than a year after the car was classified.
Bill,
