I have still got to fit my 6 point cage,should be this week and have got a set of r888's on order

It is only a 1.8 8v gti but is good fun to through about :D

I also have an MR2 T-Bar turbo which is relativly standard (at the moment) apart from exhaust and induction, has been off the road as i have been replacing the head but should be up and running in couple of weeks........

Welcome onboard Adam

As Eddy says, Golfs are becoming the cheap trackday hoon of choice with many of us (me included) running mk2's.

It would be good to see you and the car at the meets. Check the forum and meet rules to see what goes on :)

Cheers

Stu

Welcome Adam - As said, the Golf is a perfect track day car and you look like you have a nice example there :thumb:

Hope to see you at the meets - are you coming tomorrow?

Hello and welcome, the MKII is a great track car ... I had the pleasure of running Stu's recently at Marham .. great fun (but I do owe him a set of pads and disks now :) ) ...

I recently got myself a MKII, however before I had a chance to receive it, a lorry decided to restyle it :(.
Dum spiro, spero
