A 1.4 on a track day?

Hey all

i have a couple of friends who have cars prepared for racing, and they frequently take 'em to the track.

My friends badly want me to take the golf there, altough it is not a GTi they want me to start going there to see if i like it, and maybe eventually i would buy a car for that purpose

the thing is, is the 1.4 strong enough? what could i expect in terms of car wearing? clutches? tires?

You will probably wear some tire, but not too extreme (unless extreme heat and you track it a whole day, or toss it into 4 wheel skids :p )
But i dont think the cluches will wear too much, in regular driving they hold over 100k km, so they should handle a day of track driving.

But i recommend to give it a go, its fun and you learn how the car handles. But be careful its easy to make stupid mistakes.
