Title: Scirocco R Cup @ Brands Hatch
Post by: chungster on September 04, 2010, 10:32:10 pm
well the DTM at Brands Hatch this weekend brought along with it from Germany, the CNG powered Scirocco R Cup cars for its latest race today.

But firstly, check out what i managed to get hold off!

Posters / Post Cards / and more importantly, a specifiv Scirocco R brochure! now why don't UK dealers have these???

The paddock set up for the R Cup cars was spectacular to say the least. Bumped into Neil Birkett from Autometrix there today and he said go check it out its rather impressive. He wasn't wrong.

Each car has its own bay in this humongous marque.

4 British household names were given a car to race today. Martin Brundle / Mark Blundell / Johnny Herbet / Derek Bell.
