    Video: The MkIV Project Golf - How to build a budget dirt club racer

    With 39 years of experience racing VW Golfs on the dirt & many state titles in my trophy cabinet (ok - on a shelf in the garage), I show step by step many of my secrets for setting up a hatchback for racing between the trees.

    Keen to see how this goes. Weight plays such a big part in the smaller engine mk4s.
    not sure how I feel about the washers behind the stub axle, but guess its not on the road.

    Good stuff mate thank you for putting the video together and for sharing it here! Need more of this and less purely aesthetic builds! As Waterboy said too - would be very keen to see more of your other cars as well.
