Loved that! You were having so much fun! But please, be careful with your eyes. Get some old style Bugatti driver’s goggles or something, but don’t risk your eyes.

Emily's a boss!!!!! Tearing it up that dirt didn't have a chance!!!Aaron's awesome enjoying his wifey having a blast. Loving the videos guys keep em coming

Em, you're a great spokesperson for any product you endorse. Very professional. But oh my goodness were you having a blast drifting that car! Smile-o-meter was pegged.

As a car guy, I enjoy any channel that has to do with cars ... a past VW guy, any VW powered car touches my heart ... that said .... Emily keeps me coming back ... those eyes and that smile .... knock my socks off!

A little tip for working with those lug bolts. Get one started and snugged up, then spin the tire to get that bolt at the 12 o’clock position. This should allow the other 4 to line up close enough and you don’t have to fight to hold the wheel up and get the bolts started. My Dad used to have a VW based buggy and I helped quite a bit over the years. He showed me that trick the first time I tried to mount the fronts.

So much fun through vicarious watching of you folks having so much fun! That is an awesome little beasty, so much potential to become even more, keep the vids coming I quite enjoyed this one. I have only one initial suggestion and that is that you figure out some way to do a couple of 'neck-saver' roll-bars behind some safe seats and seal off the engine from the cockpit, oh wait, dats more than one, okay a couple, oh, some decent shocks and a wee lift, 1800 or so turbo charged motor, run the exhaust forwrd into the side pipes..... ok ok ok I go now... So much fun! Big cheers from PNW Canada, sitting by the ocean :)

These replicas are/ have been quite common here in Germany. Mostly due to the chassis - of course: VW Käfer You should choose a tire with a high side profile, especially on an "Pendelachse" rear end: that changes camber very extreme. Like more than a 60, like 65/70%. e.g. 185/70-15" works great in the front. 155 is original equipment.

I never saw an American havin so much fun in a car before (don't be rude now gents)! Awesome Emily. I remembered how we had such fun when we were kids. All the cars around here were less than 180 hp and it was a mad hoot to cane about the beach or paddocks in an old Hunter or Corolla. VW's were a bit too flash to do that with unless we were rich people. Humber 80's and old Rover 75,or 90's were heavy gutless and pretty humorous too. Great wee hoon around the layby Miss, wish I could have had a go! 🏆👍❤️😂

If you plan to keep on throwing it sideways under full throttle, you might want to see if there is anything underneath that you can bolt or weld a couple of headache tubes to and attach a couple of simple bucket seats and accompanying seat harnesses to. I would guess that it wouldn't be impossible to flip it if you tried hard enough. Looks like a WHOLE LOT of FUN.
