Airstrip Attack – 800HP Volkswagen Golf

July 22nd, 2016

Airstrip Attack - 800HP Volkswagen GolfAfter cramming a 3.6-liter V6 (from a Passat) into this Golf, this thing is ready to spank some supercars on a closed airstrip. HRP Performance (Germany) put their brand of bullet proof engine modification to work under the hood of this very bad girl that gives the word fahrvergnügen (German for driving enjoyment) a while new meaning. An HRP kit, with a pair of turbochargers, gives this grocery-getter the extra get-up-and-go to run with the big boys.

Despite not being a beast out of the hole (no smoke and no spin), this European nightmare manages to get down the track quickly enough. It irks out some impressive runs against cars that you would never expect to fall against a VW.
