Ah, those were the days. I worked for a guy in the summer of '77 who 
raced in the Scirocco/Bilstein Cup series.  He and a friend made up a 2 
car team with a pair of brand new Champagne Edition (Silver w/ plaid 
interior) cars. At the first race they qualified 1 and 2. The green flag 
dropped and we waited to see which one would lead the first lap.  The 
entire pack passed the pit straight - but without our cars.  It turned 
out that they touched going through a corner.  One spun and ended up in 
the middle of the track facing the oncoming traffic and trying to figure 
out what percent of the cars would not hit him. (It turned out to be 
100%.) The other car spun into a tire barrier and sustained a 
substantial amount of damage. And you think you have had some bad days 
with your Scirocco.
