All Things Mk5 > Mk5 General Area
Pistonheads £10k Golf mk5 project.
breeze:
I'm not that confident they will be able to do it unless they do something drastic like bin the interior. K04 kit installed and mapped, plus brakes, plus suspension seems like a bit of a stretch for £5k, especially since the clutch would probably start slipping after lap 1. Bin the interior, stick a stage 1 map on the K03 and then do brakes, tyres and suspension? Would it be quick enough?
Marticus:
Episode 2 up now.
GVK:
Ugggh Curborough. :fighting2:
They picked the crappiest track.
pudding:
Yup! That track suits the R more than it does the GTI! Traction out of corners!
Over 5 seconds just to catch up to the R, let alone beat it :grin: On a stumpy little track like that, that is a huge amount of time.
I was impressed the GTI with it's piddly little 15 year old brakes was only a car length behind the R braking from 60 - 0. Exactly my point about stupid Lambo brakes on Golfs being a complete waste of time and money :grin:
GVK:
Must be a sign of getting old when the pro racing driver looks about 12 yrs old :signLOL:
