"The Scirocco" website / Arctic Wind



I found it comical that Brett was pondering putting a 2.0 in his car!
Tooooo funny...Look at how far you've come Brettster...

Good show Greg!  Joe has contacted me several times over the years 
about putting
his stuff back up, but he and I have never connected at the right 
time to make it
actually happen...actually, I think he just never responded to my 
email asking him
how he'd like to transfer the data. :)   Did he send you a cdrom?

Some of the pictures in that site are quite historical; pictures of 
my 16v were the first
16v pictures he posted! :)
