Found pictures of this Corrado recently, and looking to see if anyone know where I can find more info on it?

Rod had a special interest in this Volkswagen Corrado and walked right past several drift cars to shoot it. It's used in the Hillclimb series in Germany.

According to the spec sheet, it's powered by a four cylinder 1.3 liter engine that revs to 10,500rpm. The VW has been completely gutted and tips the scale at a lightweight 724kg."

Was/is a Berg Cup race car

Just to add, that is Definitely Manfred Konrad's car. It was in an issue of PVW last year I think, may have even been earlier this year. Berg Cup, 1200cc 16v engine using Hyabusa cylinder head.
