We Take On The Track In Our Mk2 Golfs - But It Doesn't Go To Plan
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- We are hitting up Bedford Autodrome GT for South East Mk2 Golfs' first group track day. Some people in the group are seasoned track ehthusiasts, others are track day amateurs, but we all set to have a great day at one of the longest circuits in the UK.
Join us on an incredible adventure as we drive our Mk2 Golfs to the limit, which as it turns out, is too much for one of the cars...

Thanks for watching!
Great video, well done 👍🏻
Thanks very much. Appreciate the kind words.
Great video!
Appreciated. Thanks!
Fantastic video covering a brilliant day out on track. Look forward to the next one!
And to add, this is my favourite video on the channel to date ❤
It was great fun. Part of the enjoyment comes with being in other people's cars too. This certainly won't be our last track day.
And thank you. 😊
It's great seeing so many Mk2's on track. Hope to see more track content. 💪🏽
Thank you. It was amazing to see them all, and performing so well too! We'll certainly be doing more track events. We've got the bug now! What track would you suggest?
@@golfmk2 I have no suggestions. Just along for the ride. 💪🏽
Haha I'm just glad you're enjoying it! Means a lot. 😁
What a fantastic day that was! Thank you for letting me bring the "VW Civic" along, I don't think Blitz would have survived, or have been as much fun!
Some important points:
- We learned that Jo is a faster driver than Ali
- Ali and Martin must have jynxed Gumperts engine
- The Civic would have been a bit quicker but for a slower exit behind the Super7, and was suffering a clutch issue making downshifts difficult (yes, yes, racer excuses 😅)
- The GoPro mounts needs improving as the brakes can force the front to change angle, as can cornering on the rear camera.
Hoping you let me bring it along to the next one as I feel there may be a score to settle with the ABF
That is no problem at all, it was great to compare the Civic against the Mk2s. It's a great machine!
Point 1 - Jo probably is faster than me. She's mad! But I think she broke the car as it wasn't making that noise before hand. 👀
Point 2 - yes I should have known better than to sing the praises of the engine!
Point 3 - those are some pro race driver level excuses right there! But... on a clear run I reckon it'd be neck and neck between the VW Civic and ABF.
Point 4 - get yourself a Quadlock GoPro mount. They're amazing!
Definitely bring it again and settle that score with Ben and the ABF...
@golfmk2 aha, I jest, there are no scores to settle, it's all about enjoying the cars and the time on track.
Ben is a very capable driver (in a very well built mk2) which is evident in his relaxed and chatty manner while still getting round rather quickly! Hopefully next time I get a chance to ride shotgun.
You'll have to join the queue, as I want to have a go too. 🤣
Yeah he's very good and that can be evidenced from when he drove mine at the last track day, he was more capable than I was after just hopping straight in.
Great vid! and what a fun day!! makes me want to get out on track 😃
Thank you. More than welcome to come along to our next one, wherever that may take us. I cannot emphasise enough how fun it is.
Great video :)
Thank you!
Kudos to you producing an exhaust that can bring the noise down of the 3.2 VR6 enough for it to pass the strict Bedford noise limits, whilst not stifling the performance.
Really great vid - reminds me of some of the enthusiast level GTI vids of old - great work and some fab cars. We need more Jo! :)
Thank you. That's a compliment and a half! I'll tell Jo she needs to be on camera more. Did you notice her cackle at one point though? 🤣
Am I that humorous you want to see more @drewwager? 😂
It's the cackle. We'll just clip that and send it to him. 🤣
When’s the next meet finally got my mk2 out after 14yrs of hibernation.
Amazing work! There'll be a good few from the group attending Endless Summer in Surrey, if that tickles your fancy?
@@golfmk2 only endless summer I can find is in Winchester 21st July
