Yeah, and you're usually 100% right, but when it's in good taste and context with the thread, it earns a pass. Handbags or Ugg boots, yes. A new thread for a motorsports product nobody asked for, yes. Responding to a genuine need expressed in the thread, not so much.

Carry on...

the ultimate super beetle build.

i have nothing else to contribite to th thread other than this, and my opinion. i had a superbeetle convertable. i would NOT weant to autocross anything that handled and stopped that badly.

now a friend of mine is college had a sedan superbettle, tweaked. sounded and handled like a pissed off harley. fun car, though.

Just bumping this because I know someone considering autocrossing a Super Beetle. 

He should totally do it, right?

Yes because things have improved even more since this thread was started.

Suspension goodies, 2.0+ liter motors.............and they are light.

This one was seen autocrossing at St Marys airport about 18 months ago....

Apparently he should also autocross an F350.

 

Then again, it's been 13 years, the F350 may have been nerfed class-wise since then smiley
