Well done to Kosi, Seb and their team for getting this privately entered GTI into the CAMS National Production Series this weekend at Wakefield Park.

Even better, Kosi won his class in both races. :thumbup:

Here's a few more pics…

:thumbsup:

Being a production car series there is some limitations. For instance they can run a tweaked GIAC ECU, but I think the car has to run stock boost.

There is a roll cage fitted and they use semi-slick tyres along with KW racing coilovers, but apart from that it's pretty stock AFAIK.
