2-185 3-180 4-189 Shitty about the engine though. I would have thought they'd try to at least compression test them before shipping overseas. |
You're going to need a spare anyway. :D
I've noticed that having spare engines and transmissions on a stand is the key to longevity on track. It's all about Karma, Murphy and luck. |

Such is life! Overall not a big deal. |
Some progress happening, Renderos getting the cage finished up. I believe I'll have the car in-hand and can start piecing bits together within a month or so, though I won't have the funds to do the main build til sometime next year.

Mission came home last night.

Still going to be a while but I'm collecting bits as I find good deals. Still shooting for end of 2020 for track debut, but maybe it'll happen sooner. Somewhat exciting... will be more exciting when it has, like, an engine and stuff. |
Oh, and the TDI was a total beast. Towed it like nothing. I did find out that it will do rolling burnouts in 2nd and 3rd gear when trying to get up to speed, though. :bigtu:
