Golf R Observations and Questions

I also wacked up some pics from my track day - http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/f112...tml#post675195

They show a bit of roll at turns 4 and 9 with DCC set to sport but it looks a lot worse in the photos than it felt in the car

If you think that's bad I'd hate to see photos of mine yesterday. Felt like I was in a boat with the body roll I was getting at some stages. Probably didn't help that we were going through corners at least double the advisory signs on the Putty. Time for some front and rear sway bars I think.

My park sensors also crapped themselves yesterday. The RVC pops out when I hit reverse but there is no image on the screen and the beep is a much higher pitch and is constant like you're about to run into something if you move a cm. Booked in for a check on Thursday.

My observation is you both have poor color tastes. White is much better:P

Anyways.... my observation would be that your numberplate is way big and doesn't match the holder... you should do something about that ;)

I have painted my old M5's grills, painting over chrome stuff never really holds up. Stone chips rape the **** out of it. That being said I can remove the wrap when I don't want it black anymore :D

Don't worry number plate holder is on the cards, I have just been so busy :(

I have put 4800 km on her now.. Three and a half weeks! wooo! bring on the next track day!

White is not a colour.. it is but the canvass on which to put one :)

You are right, white is not a colour. It is a shade.

Hehehe... my observation if that Fab_R didn't pay attention in art class ;)

SilvrFoxX and worx did though, cause they beat me to it :)

What a lovely morning it is to own a car that is a colour :P

Why do people paint or change the VW emblem to a black one? And why debadge the car too in some cases?

I personally prefer them chromed..provides a bit of contrast to the grill.
