Hi Turtle,

thanks for the compliments, also Fabian, who send me an Email!

Still waiting for my 2276, but it will/must be ready for the 2007 season. Last year it got a ton of modifications to squeeze the big motor into the engine compartment WITH the IDAs, including a swingaxle sub frame with IRS mountings, a Rancho Pro Street gearbox, new paint in the engine bay and rear wheel arches, an so on.
Cheers,

Georg

Hi Zach,

the Ghia was IRS and will stay IRS!  Wink
In the end it's more of a street car than a race car. I will be happy if I dip into the 13 secounds.
Cheers,

Georg

HAHA  that's funny!!  Grin

Great looking stuff Georg, realy nice, but myself I would think twise about using Urethan bushings in a IRS setup. Due to the less than perfect geometry VW used there.
Maybe this drawing makes sence?
