What type of axle beam bushings do you use/recommend for an A1?

Though I would try to re-energize this thread and I would like to hear additional comments/opinions regarding wheel sizes. Especially from anyone running MkII Golf's. I'm not so interested in where...

I use only the KAAZ.

As a member of the AZ Region of SCCA I want to welcome Aaron and all drivers and participants to the Phoenix area. A number of AZ Region drivers and workers will be assisting with your trials on the...

Update. I had a patch put on the tire. Ran the tire last weekend....testing Friday; practice, qualify, race Saturday; practice, qualify, race Sunday. Track temps. well over 100. Took the tire off...

Last weekend, during a practice session on a set of new Kumho 710's I picked up a small (1/8") self tapping screw. The puncture is in the center of the "tread" so could be plugged or patched. Is a...

Being a bit familiar with SCCA's history, that is a big IF! Where do you see it classed properly?

I didn't want to hijack the other post, so will ask the question here. While the "GTI Cup" will be fun to watch, I would rather see the VW in club racing. Do those of you more familiar with the GTI...

It's great that VW will once again become involved in US racing. :D As a VW racer I welcome and appreciate the contingency awards. :happy204: For those of us on the west coast it would have been...

Thanks everyone for the advice. I used a cheap ($23.99) heat gun from Ace Hardware. I tried a couple of different scrapers. I found that an old 1" putty knife with rounded corners worked the best for...

I appreciate the suggestions, but personally I've found it difficult to reverse (left to right) the tires and do a rebalance while the car is moving. A skill I'll have to learn. :lol:

I have used...

Looking for suggestions regarding cleaning track rubber off tires. Tools, techniques, etc.

Can you skin the hood? What front to rear weight proportion is optimal? What is acceptable?

Pulled out the old GCR's. The answer to my first question is....NO!

Marcus,

You have a message.

The stolen car has been found! :happy204: Sometimes there is a happy ending! Thanks everyone for keeping their eyes and ears open. :023:

The following link will take you to the original post and links to some photos. http://www.coloradoscca.org/prodcar/viewtopic.php?t=5480

You are correct sir! This wouldn't be for IT. Disadvantages???

I looked at a car a week or so ago that had a dry sump. As I know little about them I would be interested in hearing some opinions regarding their usefulness.

I'll bring my helmet :023:

I will be there, but the car won't. I am racing at Buttonwillow the following weekend and don't want to risk breaking the car. I will be flagging all three days at FIR. See you there.

Marcus,

The photos are great! Thanks for sharing them. :023: What type of camera (and lens) did you use?

Sorry to hear about your incident, but glad to hear it was nothing serious. Regarding...

I'll be dragging the green chicane (ITB VW) over from Phoenix. :P I still think I can beat John Norris. :smilie_pokal: Obviously, the Arizona heat has made me delusional! :wacko:

Heat was the ticket! :023: I didn't have a heat gun so used a propane torch and a 1" putty knife. It worked great. Thanks for all the suggestions. :D

I need to rebalance some tires that have track rubber on them. What is a good (read easy??????) method for removing the built up rubber? :huh:

Glenn, please contact me at [email protected]. I have a photo I want to send.
