I think they are starting the season with Polos then swtiching.

That's a pic from the shop so they're starting with Polos.

Curious as to why the car says "Marklund Motorsports" across the top, must be using cars from Anton Marklund to get the season started.

Scott Speed has tried his hand at several types of motorsport. Let's see how he does dodging trees.

Cool. Is this in Indy or Nascar land?

Unfortunately not many trees in the GRC. Scott Speed did win XGames Brazil last year.

It's Rally Cross so multiple cars on a closed track. And he was successful last year in it.

Sigh, if only the Polo were available to Purchase here in the U S of A.

I'll talk to the shop manager and see if this one's available after Austin. :-)

Exactly, starting with Marklund Polos until the Beetles are ready

Definitely excited to see this new entry in GRC. Just wish they were using the GTi instead of the Beetle. That is unless VW is planning some sort of Beetle RSi down the line......
