There are good ideas and there are bad ideas, then there are those brainfarts so vile and ridiculous that the bearer of said thoughts should undoubtedly be subject to court ordered lobotomy.
A twin engined Scirocco is far from a new idea, VW Motorsport built two of them in the eighties and several imitators have sprung up over the ensuing decades.
But to construct such a hell-beast in today’s litigation happy society and then drive it to work… that’s a whole different story.
I began work on the car in January of ’04 with every intention of competing in the ’05 GRM Challenge, the monster is complete, goes like hell and is well under budget.
Unfortunately I can’t afford the time off work to bring it to Gainsville so it’s time to introduce Durocco.
