SIR in 97 at the entrance where most of the BC boys met and I just found recently through another Passat list member.

| Below are the wheels I had dreamed of. I couldn't wait to see what
difference the Quaife and lighter wheels would make that year! Well it dropped me to 15.71 and speed of 88.96mph. Quite happy to finally break out of the 16's. Especially since my friends 16V Gti was neck and neck with me at the finish. Now for those wondering why my car is so damn slow try launching a 3400lb Passat! Slow to start but once it gets moving... this is also the year where I blew one of my Bridgestone SO2's (want to see expensive tires??) outside Seattle on a Sunday night due to alignment. Glad everyone saw me stop and gave a hand. Of course then everyone got lost in Seattle trying to find a restaurant but that's another story :-) |

These
are 'special' Wilwoods being put on my car at Momentum. I'm sure you'll
be hearing about these pretty soon :-) Also have the Polymatrix "D" pads
on also and you can see my Abt coilover. Heard some comments that people
saw sparks coming out of my wheels during braking on the drive I did that
weekend - as if I drive my car hard! |

Here's
a pic of my car outside Momentum.
For those of you who haven't met him the really blonde guy is Shawn whose
done ALL the work on my car. He's also the guy that put together the 3.1L
6sp Passat (as well as the A1VR6 Rabbit, A2 VR6 Syncro
Gti,Supercharged VR6 Gti,Turbo VR6 Beetle,3.1L Syncro Cabrio, 1.8T Jetta, Golf, Scirocco, working on a A3 AWD 300hp 1.8T Golf CL, etc etc.)of
a couple years ago - hey I'm almost there... anything you want done to
your car to make it faster he can do it. And remember speed costs money
- how fast can you afford to go? |
