The Douglas radials handle sooo much better than the Toyo snow tires. Sucks buying tires to drive a couple thousand miles , but, ripping through chicago today was a friggin blast. The 2.0 16v with the short ratio gearbox was made for that crap.She kills these cludge fu#@*s. Can't wait to get to the coast with it. Really bums me out that I don't have the resources to keep two GLIs happy.

Hey All - I am the guy with the Calypso now. Former Montana resident and one of the early local VW crew back in the day. I will post up a thread on project progress, but needless to say I am one happy dude right now.

Big thanks to you Trev and Carl for making the run. It was short but sweet! :beer: :)

Already got to work on her this morning. Had to do something about the wheels and take off the rest of the busted trim. She is going to be a small bumper car soon anyway. :paranoid:

Thanks again Trev! now you can go buy another one! :unibrow:
Unaffiliated.
