Thanks for all the comments and the link to the video lads sorry for the late reply I haven't been on here in ages! So here's a quarterly update Last month I took the car to Nurburgring for the week along with my r32. Car was faultless on the drive up there and for the first 5 laps over 2 days. My fastest time on the Saturday was an 8.54 BTG with a passanger and being help up by a few slower cars after carousel. On the Sunday morning I went out on what felt like my fastest lap of the trip. No hold ups at all and was really pushing my limits, kissing a lot of high rumble strips Then just before showboats I had zero brake pedal, foot went straight to the floor. rear brakes had siezed up, all 4 pads disintegrated, fluid boiled, carriers bent. You get the idea haha. Luckily I had loads of room to corner wide so there was no issue there. To get home I mini clamps both the rear lines, took the rear pads out (what was left) and drove home 500 miles using just the fronts. Looooovley. Minus that car was faultless, very at home, and showed up a lot of bigger cars Some pictures of the trip. And I'll give the golf some credit as that handled unreal considering the weight. Haldex rocks. Currently she's sitting at home after being detailed and serviced. awaiting new brakes, aero to be fitted and some new rubber, next outing will most likely be Trax Update done
