    So after almost a year of not really driving the Cupra, it's time to finally address the big thing that's been holding the build back. The old rollcage has to come out due to shoddy welding and a new (proper one) is going in. Also we're starting the journey of turning it into more of a track car, going for more power with stage 2 software and some more weight reduction. Stoked to be working on this again.

      @Chris Are you concussed? I said "I found John's account" because Luke stated "I'd like to see you break it" Almost looking like Luke was trying to defend the cage's integrity, which is fucked. It was John who welded in this awful cage. Which is why I said it looks like I've found John's account. Does that make sense now? If it doesn't you seriously need to have words with yourself

    • @lukepalmer2126
      @lukepalmer2126 4 года назад

      Ahaha put it this way. That cage was going nowhere. I'm not claiming to be a master welder but my job does involve a fair bit from like 2 mm players to 20mm plate. A weld without gas or little gas will bubble up like a few of John's but is still fucking strong. That cage is better than no cage.

    This cage reminds me of my old MK6 fiesta ST150, I got told the shell was clean and never damaged, when I then stripped it for parts the entire left side had been welded on and the welds looked exactly the same as your cage! Can’t wait to see the progress on the cupra!
