The MK5 needs serious money thrown at it for track work being that much heavier and the need to cool everything down ie FMIC and brakes as well as the usual stuff hence why the MK2 Golf is serious value as a track weapon...MK5 is a very good road car though.

....So true! I kinda enjoy my slightly compromised hybrid though - Fast road but occasional track though not on the absolute limit in either case. Also why I've stayed at Stage 2 remap.

It's a shame they cost so much to mod now that parts are so expensive...just been looking at suspension prices!!I
I could have easily spent another 6K on my Ed 30 ie Brakes , diff, tyres , ARB's and tyres ie Inters (18 inches)
It's wasn't viable/affordable and I knew my target lap times needed this investment to achieve them...my MK2 was already there!
