The guys over at CrankandPiston.com are back at it and getting their Golf GTI up to speed, literally. Phil and the team were down on this area during the first UAE Touring Car Championship race choosing to run stock drive line due to budget constraints and a desire to see just how fast they could make the car go by playing with the chassis.
As you can imagine though, going heads up with SEAT Supercopa’s with stock performance was never going to be enough. So after the first race where they were left behind they decided that selling up was the route to take. However after a bit of thought out went the initial idea of selling the Golf to buy a SEAT and in came power and some other chassis changes.
Now we love the SEAT Supercopas but after talking to Phil, we are happier they stayed with the GTI and are moving forward with development on it.
