| Well...got through the rolling road on Friday and through the racing over the weekend. Rolling road went well...had fuel pump issues ie...it was too small so only made power up to 4800rpm...but got a very respectable 120bhp and 130lbs/ft...fitted a new fuel pump on Friday at the Pod so will pop it back down to the rolling road in a couple of weeks bu the saw no reason why the Jetta wouldn't make 140bhp (and that's without a cam ) Weekend was a fairly good one for racing Have found out i really need some better gripping tyres for the front for the strip so will get some before the next show in September
