**** FOR SALE **** $12K
Hi,
As Anthony had decided to part with the Red Devil, I saw it an opportunity to buy the car for regular track work.
I'd been teetering with the idea of buying it over a few months when he first announced selling. I gave in to the idea after a track day where an RX7 and GTR punched the wall. Plus I have plans on lots of track time this year, so rather than dump money into the current silver one, thought it's money better spent sitting in an already exceptionally well built car. I'd initially considered it as a daily, but rather than soften it up and detune to make it more streetable for my requirements, I thought it'd be a waste of the hard work that's gone in to it, so will keep flying the track oriented theme.
On the immediate horizon is getting baseline performance figures; 0-100kph, rolling speed intervals, lap times at he local tracks and quarter mile. I'll share that once compiled.
RE mods, before track time next weekend I will soften up the front sway bar to dial out some understeer / promote more movement in the rear. Though will be replacing the coilovers in the next month or two, likely to H&R or KW's. I also an expect an LSD will be needed, have done some research and likely to be wavetrac, will get some track time in it first before committing.
Build on the car when I took delivery.
Enough waffling, I'm now sporting two Polo GTI's.
