    What's also amazing, is that Bruce's solution to every problem is to over-engineer the system to near-perfection, and it's just stunning how every next iteration is more and more technically impressive.

      Bruce is clearly far above them within racing, knowledge, building his custom vehicle !
      Bruce is clearly focused upon more serious racing and not antics.
      Perhaps Brent, Jaime PFI Speed could be some help and certainly within Colorado; If they do not already have connections.

    The first video of the Golf they showed from 5 years ago, I got to see in person.
    I was at Bandimere Speedway in Colorado. I was there with my dad who was driving the Rainmaker WRX (which was featured on TRC).
    He mentioned there was a Golf with TWO ENGINES!
    It was an amazing day. One ill never forget.
    Thank you guys for that 🙏

    This car never fails to remind me of the "silliest" VW I ever saw online. Back..maybe 20 years or more, someone posted a green old Scirocco (Mk1 or 2?) from a European car magazine. The car was gutted, caged and had two superbike motors in the hatch, one driving each wheel (somehow linked via throttle management?). I believe they may have even been Hayabusa motors. But picture a 1500-1600 pound Scirocco with 11-13,000 RPM at the rear wheels. If you dig really hard you can find one blurry picture of it from an old VwVortex post...but the car has never left my mind. Just sounds like an absolute hilarious thing to build/drive.

    This gets me thinking about, if he has a kid, how significant it will be for him to pass this down to them one day. At that point you're not getting a car that your Dad owned. You're getting the physical manifestation of decades worth of his life. Aspects of himself are ingrained into the very core of this vehicle. Very few things in life today are able to compare to that.

      Actually Bruce clearly drew from others to develop his unique VW, VR12, "Forrest Gump" drag racing vehicle along with his earlier mini, circle track VW racing vehicle.
      This is not actually 'outside the box' thinking, rather applying proper thinking, assistance from other with proper knowledge, thus implementing these together within his unique VW.

Big turbo like a 35R and up on a VR definitely needs hardened straight cut gears in the trans. 3rd loves to shear from all the torque in general. Been there 👍
