750Kg VW Golf GTi Mk1 || Full Onboard - Retro Rides Gathering
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 січ 2019
- Among the machines we captured on Retro Rides Gathering 2018, was this very interesting VW Golf Mk1 owned, built and driven by Chris Priddle that had just arrived from the Nurburgring Nordschleife, while posting a very respectable 8:20 lap (with traffic) on its second try.
Of course that peaked our interest, so here you can see more about it and how Mr. Priddle drives this 1.8L Naturally Aspirated Pocket Rocket that while only producing 155Hp, benefits from its low weight of around 750Kg to become a rather quick and agile thing.
But we will let you be the judge... - Авто та транспорт
Best looking wheel arches ever created. VW should have done it 40 year ago. I love it 100000x
Fantastic build and properly driven.Very beautiful too.
I agree
I like how one gauge is a beercan
Needs shorter ratios imo
He took it to the Ring so best guess is it is setup for the Nordschleife. No use for short ratio there
Great fun living on the edge of your seat, Great thumbs up.
Good job it's only 750kg, because it has the wrong gearbox.
Wrong gearbox... why? When it does it's job right, and the driver is happy with it, why should he change it?
What’s wrong w the gearbox cause it’s a 020?
Nice car & sound.... reminds me of my old golf gti mk1....
That induction noise is nuts
Should be like that Straight out the factory ✌✌🇬🇧
This motivates me to finish my 2.0 16v Renault 5. Should be around same weight and power as this awesome little mk1.
Might weigh more because of the engine. My 5 turbo was 706.5kg with a 1.4.
My dream car right there in its finest
" just arrived from the Nurburgring Nordschleife" Before any one mentions ratios again!. Shooosh.
Beautiful....that is all
Sounds nice
Acelera, Frena, dobla, y vuelve a Acelerar!! Un Fierro.🍻😎
Que motor tiene men?
Thanks!
Hi mate , I have seen that you have side skirts fitted on the car now , is your berg cup kit supplied by NTS from Blackpool, looks exactly the same as mine except you have pull out you front wings . Would it be possible to know where you had your skirts made ?
Cheers
Mk1 beautiful
Do you ever feature Gurston Down?
U carnt beat d old school mk 1 golfs NICE good on u be safe knot mental take it easy ¥€$
gear box is stock? seems pretty large relation, maybe it's just because the video
Lluis Nieto This was the car’s first outing so yes the gearbox was pretty much stock. Since then we believe that changed 😉
yeah had it rebuilt gave them the wrong gears have to just fit it lol dose have a quafie diff
@@thepridla2280 is it yours? Could you give me some general info about pulling 155hp from a mk1 1.8 without Turbo, please?
@@fristytron maybe 16v motor from mk2?
@@thepridla2280 KR?
Where's the video of the 427 Cobra from the beginning of the video?
Look at the GoPro, mounted in the middle and notice the centrifugal power.
i do get why first gear is so long but why do all the other gears have to be long as well?
btw the car is great defs one of my favoritest cars of all time!
Seriously needs a close ratio box.
ngli actually dig this build es peciallly the exposed intercooler and overfenders but it could use a stainless exhaust
Where is the red miata video?
oh look a flux compensator right there
I just want to know where I can the wheels arches kit here in the states? Can anyone help?
Momentum ftw
Imagine the grip with good tyres
Mr phil it has toyo r888 on it. there grippy asf. it’s too light to grip up
750 kg!?? Very good job
Top top top ...
1.6 l 90hp ???
👍
La boite tire bcp trop long c'est dommage.
Decent
Does need more poke but handles well b safe an sensible. Ahaaa gud for you
just that shelby cobra tho...
I’m sure his “unique” tattoos add extra weight, thereby slowing down his time. Could have been a little bit more aggressive in that first turn whence he hesitated to upshift as both hands were tightly gripping the steering wheel.
Richard Hammond was here
Does anybody know ehat steering wheel is that???
Looks like a Kodeshop mate 👍
@@thedrvn thanks!!
The car is nice needs more power
Nope fuck off
Stiffler oink bitch
It didn't look quick. My old car weighed in at 705.5k with 250hp.
The trails are calling. What car & What engine ?
@@lewiscannon8213 it was one of the first fuel injected renault 5 turbo's. Built by bbtunning back in the day. It was in performance gti magazine.
Needs more power, or shorter gears
What wheels are those? @ 0:16
It' should be Work Meister CR-01, but this one looks more like replica. Rota Kyusha probably.
Thank you!@@Diftonez
Nice mk1 but u see the E28
Can anyone identify the engine management system being used?
Emerald ecu
alex cabello fernández thanks, that was going to be my first guess.
is that a crossflow motor
No
Yes it is
For sale la golf mk1 please pour un français qui en prendra tres soins
8:20 with that? Very respectable.
Je m’attendais à un truc qui arrache très fort mais là boîte est venue tout gâcher
Even with shorter ration its just a sohc so..
Ratio*
absolute deathtrap. must have a lot of confidence in the NHS.
How much tell me now I’m paying hit me up
155ch c'est largement suffisent
That thing is sex-c
Don't wanna burst your bubble, but I expected a lot more umff
More of what?
Super long gears
maybe for the Nordschleife..
First thoughts were.... oh dear... That gearing.... How wrong.... Much disappointed... Anti climax....
Maybe he does use it mainly on the Nordschleife...
" just arrived from the Nurburgring Nordschleife" ------
a me sembra ferma come un paracarro boh forse mi sbagliero
Now turbo it
And then have that boring same sound as all the other 4zylinders these days.. Hell no!
+Andre Check Daniel Wittwer's Golf 1.
No turbo and insanely fast.
Only one to find it very funny on the shape and style?
Needs much more gear.
First
lär dig vänsterbromsa!
2:08/1:50 kopplingen kan du inte heller hantera!
this was a waste of data
why?
only 155HP 😂😅
You know car community has gone to shit when you have people like this lad thinking 155 HP on a 750kg golf 1 is not good enough. Not everything has to be 2J swapped with 1000HP my guy. Appreciate this car for what it is.
@@denismulic5746 THANK YOU!
155hp in such a light vehicle can be fun! Not like a modern 2 ton heavy brick...
@@denismulic5746 Well,that's not the case with me since i appreciate builds like this Golf.And in Croatia you have fastest racing version of car for which lots of people like to laugh at yet it's one of the quickest 1.6 cars on European hills.I'm talking about Yugo of Dejan Kopajtić.220 horsepower from 1.6 8v engine from Fiat Bravo on only 715 kilos of weight.Also,Edi Kuharić's Yugo is damn quick too with 1.6 engine from Alfa 147 with 220 horsepower on 700 kilos.Saw both cars in action plenty times so i know what i'm talking about.
When you don't understand weight to power ratios
Für 750 ps zu schwach der hat keine 750 ps
Dragan Jovanovic les nochmal richtig ahahahah
Well zzzzz zzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzz snore fart ahhhhhh
So many mistakes.
Mister perfect 😂
@@Skelet_Castro you obviously don't know anything about road racing.
he doesnt wear socks, gross
thing called trainer socks :)
@@thepridla2280 your car is awesome mate!!! Proper gokart, and driven like you stole it!!!
