And YES, that is a Porsche 959 eating my dust.

I like how the Porsche passed so fast, that it appeared in only one picture

Tracking your GTI is the best thing you can do with it. It's so much fun and awesome.

My track pic:

Looks the the inside wheels are off the ground, or barely touching. I think the front wheel is off the ground.

It looks like that way because he's on the curbing, I believe.

Ok, what is the scoop on the 959?

Someone actually owns one and is taking it to the track?

Do tell more..........

Great pics by the way!

You need a Rear Sway Bar, that would help with that body roll, you would be able to go a bit faster in the corners as well.

I disagree with the rear sway bar comment. The mk6 already has a stiffer rear bar. You shouldn't get all of your roll control from sway bars, you end up with a twitchy car and that's not fast, it's wasting energy. Smooth is fast. Good springs and shocks will cure a lot of the body roll. The car actually looks pretty good for being stock (compliant) suspension.

What size tires are those? Love the rims, I was looking at a set when I still had my mazda6. Light and strong.
