One of the leading VW, Audi, and Porsche tuning and engineering firms in the world, APR, is entering professional racing with the formation of the APR Motorsport. Garage419 met up with Team APR, including drivers Randy Pobst, Ian Baas, and Mark White, during pre-season testing at Daytona Speedway as they were fine tuning the three VW GTI race cars which they have entered in the Koni Challenge ST class for the 2008 Grand Am Series.

I thought the test drive of the Cayman GTR was the next episode? "You can forget ferraris..."

Thursday.

Good luck during the rest of the season. Its about time a VW is near the top in mixed brand racing. I think you guys also have some of the best looking cars out there too.

In Koni challenge, the idea is that the cars are as close to street stock as possible, excluding safety equipment. All cars may run a Koni race suspension, and each car is limited differently in the area of ecu, exhaust, suspension and brake upgrades.

definatly dig the video, I enjoyed APRs grand opening in october it is a very nice facility. I drive an 07 gti and love it. The one con to this video that I have to mention is the lack of diversity in the background, Really 10+ minutes of video how many times can you change the wheel/tire, check air pressure, polish a vw decal and jack the car up. Lets see some diversity in the pits. Thanks for the fun day at the grand opening APR.

[mikepartyboy]

what mods were done to these GTi?

The guy said it was all stock?

Looks like they did suspension work though!

Is it only engine, exhaust, gear box that is stock?
