Gosh, I really need to, don't I? With these NorCal drivers, something about heading over 17 in this thing just scares the shit out of me.
Why'd I make this thing so nice? Don't do it folks, it's a trap!

Kelley Park was this weekend and it was another fun one with good people. The Notchback got lots of attention again. 
Still less than 200 miles on the odometer.

Thanks! The weather was really nice. Warm in the sun, but cool in the shade.

I agree 100%. I put more miles on my Notch when it looked rough one summer (some rust/paint pops that are doing it again 9 years later), as I drove it most everywhere...even the doctors office or out to lunch. I don't do car shows any more either, and living in the mid west, I get more people asking about it at gas stations and restaurants than I ever did at shows. It's more fun talking to people who have no idea that VW made that style of car (they thought VW only made bugs, buses, and ghia's.
