I'm still not overly convinced by the new Scirocco, but the pics of the Nurburgring 24-hours race version are much more to my liking:

Plus I quite like the sound of a 325bhp 2.0T with 178kgs of weight stripped out, shame it's only front wheel drive though.

Anyway more pics/info here:

Oh my...

It looks pretty good :oops:

Someone on the Register has a mate who is fortunate enough to be at this 24-hour race, and he kindly added some photos;

And VW Germany has a little mini site up, with a video;

Ah good stuff Ollie!

It looks even more awesome actually on the track in the video on the VW Racing site. They just need to produce a kit for the standard Scirocco that resembles that, and I'd have a deposit down!
