ansonivan Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Had the chance to race a 2014 Scirocco R this weekend, we only had one shot down an active runway and it didn't go very well. Good fun all the same. I had a huge head start and the R was a car length back when we let off at 118mph. Yes I know I shift like a drunk person. http://www.roadandtrack.com/features/web-originals/features-web-originals-family-reunion-vw-scirocco-r-meets-its-elders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Since I couldn't see it, I expect that's what your car sounds like when it's winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Where the hell did you find a new Scirocco to race? Michigan development car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansonivan Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 One of the Road and Track guys managed to borrow it from VWOA for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10phone2 Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 cool video. Is the scirocco a rebadged golf R? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansonivan Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 The scirocco is a different body from the golf but it's based on the same chassis. Golf R has all wheel drive but the Scirocco R is front wheel drive only which is slightly lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 I'd love a scirocco diesel as a cheap daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssFo Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 A new Scirocco is the only way I would get back into a VW. That or buy a MKII TT. Glad to see the Durocco is still around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FourString Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Wait, is the Scirocco being sold here finally? If it is, I'm trading in the MS3 on an R model. I've been drooling over those for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, no plans so far...AFAIK ...as Anson said, it was a VWOA owned vehicle that Road&Track writer got to borrow and brought to that event Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
