Needs a proper wheel alignment and corner balance mate. Shouldn’t be understeering like that into the last turn and the chicane. You probably want about 2mm total TOE OUT at the front and 0.6mm TOE IN at the rear, and camber will depend on your tyre but since your in cup2’s -1.5 camber for front and -2.1 camber on rear. Can go more aggressive from there if you run proper semis slicks later on 👍🏻
Nice Laps! Its sketchy alright! Just received the Integrated Engineering full carbon fibre intake for my GTI Clubsport! Wish me luck with install laters !!! Such a nice intake sound & best looks in my op! 👍
@@richardsealey3626 They probably are. 4 door cars are usually stiffer than 2. Pretty common in racing series to choose the 4 door over the 2 door for this reason in cars like the 3 series.
What’s the weight change now… with the interior delete, seats, glass delete, cage addition, wheels. Over stock curb weight? Very curious on the change in power-to-weight now! Looks epic man!
I skipped through the video after the first 5 mins or so but looks like the thumbnail didn't go down too well. Castle Combe seems like a great fun track, I won a competition back in the PS2 NFS Underground 2 days and was for a track day there probably with official Playstation / EA stuff going on and apparently was cool. The barriers are an iconic part of that track but I bet it's even better at night if they do track sessions then. As far as holding back on the comments, doesn't look like a few people are doing that but you haven't been responding to comments for a few days it seems lol :D
Coil packs ALL packed up at the same time, !! That's not good, So yes you were doing some spirited driving BUT for that to happen sounds very strange, is it a VW problem
Car looks great mate great vid glad it’s not a serious issue with engine it would be great to see misha charoudin do a lap in your car with you on the Nurburgring I’m sure you would learn alot off him .. hopefully you get their soon 🤞🏻
You should bring a couple spare coil packs with you, so then you can swap them out quick and keep going That being said, don't seem like the typa guy to do that, as simple as swapping them would be
Mk3 Meganes for the win 🙌 best decision I've made getting one after trouble with pretty much every other track car I've owned 😂 plus... they're seriously capable, usually see them pressuring cars out of there league and it's hilarious to see people's faces who don't know what they can do thinking... what is that!!! 😂
I’ll openly admit that I’m not a massive fan of the majority VAG group cars but this R is just something else 😍.. You’ve turned this car into something that has character and theatre. Pretty much every VAG car does everything for you and are quite frankly incredibly boring to drive. I take my hat off to you luke. This is one R I’d definitely own and love to experience 🙏🏻🙌🏻
I thought I had one on the way out as I had a split second missfire and a check engine light flash up but never happened again but I carry a spare anyway. My previous experience with coils on my VAG cars are they just go at any time they choose without warning. I suppose looking for missfire counts on your cylinders using VAGCOM might indicate a weak coil.
I have been watchin your videos Luke for a long time… seriuously you dont need these stupid clickbait pictures made up.. Smoking engine caused by a bad coilpack?!? Very dissapointing!
wonderful car. your race belts are FAR too loose. you should not be running race belts without a HANS device. its not even allowed here in the US. love your videos.
Great videos , I’ve just gone stage 1 in my golf r and have lots of clutch slipping , need a good garage in Hampshire to advise me as I’m a newbie .. any recommendations please 🙏🏽 @hampshirephotos
![Why is this Golf R SO FAST [POV Track "Battle" @ NJMP Lightning]](/img/n.gif)
DannyDC2 spanking everyone in the M3💪
Title: "TRACK SPEC Golf R ended BADLY"
Guy at the end of the video: "like I said, nothing major" CLICK BAIIIIIIIIIIT
Yeah he is getting good at that isn't he🙄
I mean all the tools you need is a screwdriver to change the coil packs once you bought them.
@@HDCFORLIFE you need more than a screwdriver lol
When turning off traction you forgot to say “you have to hold it down for 10 seecooonds” for added effect
I don’t think it makes no extra difference holding it down for 10 seconds than it would just holding it down for 2/3 seconds to turn it off
@@tonylyons2414 missed the reference
Why didnt we get a bmw, You only push the len for 5 seconds
Brilliant 🤣
😆😆😆 I watched that stunt scene too many times
I thought you were going fast till Danny dc2 come past like a train 😂

Must be an amazing feeling to finally drive this on the track again
Love the R but I really hope you have added a head and neck restraint to go with that harness
Running Stock Coil Packs? or Running APR upgrades? Is your AWD tune stock? or modified? What a car!!👍
All that money on a Golf R with carbon buckets just to get dusted by a rusty E46
m3 strolls past and disappears :D

Not sure if it's true but I have been told the 5 doors are stiffer than the 3 doors chassis
Of course they are...........

Next thing is haldex controller luke, but there a pretty penny haha
How did it compare to your m1
What a car you've built, Luke. Look forward to seeing some more track time content💪
Are you running 19” wheels?

Gotta love combe as sketchy as it is 😂
I love the colour on it looks so slick 😍
Not bad a 1:17 as Jason plate only managed that in a GR Yaris
Title "ended badly" and then proceeds to say "its not that bad" what a clown!
Is that the 74bhp Ford Ka waiting to get on the track in the opening visuals?
68bhp, but yes it is.
I haven’t watched the video. I just wanted to say that I feel sorry for this R.
please explain
Nice, but why the Golf R as a track car. I think FWD is a hell of a lot more fun, I would've went the GTI route
it's also faster for track, but golf R is better if weather conditions are bad.
@@vitaltrina Mehh, like a GTI is that dangerous in bad weather.
Coil packs ALL packed up at the same time, !! That's not good, So yes you were doing some spirited driving BUT for that to happen sounds very strange, is it a VW problem
I think you should check the haldex system. Sounds like your front wheels are spinning out of every corner.
Brilliant vid luke looked loads of fun 😀 👍
Car looks great mate great vid glad it’s not a serious issue with engine it would be great to see misha charoudin do a lap in your car with you on the Nurburgring I’m sure you would learn alot off him .. hopefully you get their soon 🤞🏻
Are you gonna get the verkline rear sub frame and front?
Beautifully driven, love the golf r
Goals. This is absolutely epic on track
I’m saying this before I watch…..if the thumbnail is click bait I’m don’t with your videos.
Sounds so much better without the dsg farts.
Looks like the suspensions set to stiff
Get NGK coils
You should bring a couple spare coil packs with you, so then you can swap them out quick and keep going

Great content man!! 🇿🇦
The FIRST Track Day in my TRACK SPEC Golf R ended BADLY ???? Coil packs ?? i thought you were going to write it off !!
this is the end of the .Wag. that shit engines .. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Struggling for grip so much because of the bumps 🤣
Jamie there driving the only car he has which isnt broke down lol you should take note

Is there any way to tell if the coil packs are on there way out?
usually misfires are a symptom. Hesitation on acceleration, stuff like that.
I thought I had one on the way out as I had a split second missfire and a check engine light flash up but never happened again but I carry a spare anyway. My previous experience with coils on my VAG cars are they just go at any time they choose without warning. I suppose looking for missfire counts on your cylinders using VAGCOM might indicate a weak coil.
would love to hear it from the outside. Has crazy DSG farts from a manual, lol
VAG coil packs still failing. These have been an issue since the 1.8T days!!! Sort it out, I know it's rather more powerful than standard, but...
What steering wheel is this?!
I have been watchin your videos Luke for a long time… seriuously you dont need these stupid clickbait pictures made up.. Smoking engine caused by a bad coilpack?!? Very dissapointing!

Any plans on the horrendous looking new M2?
Click bait
Please don't change the helmet 😂
what a misleading title...
Clickbate…

Clickbait thumbnail. Just tell it like it is and lay off the photoshop.
Kinda clickbaity with the picture and smoke but great video anyway
Typical vw reliability
