Cars, Features I By Winding Road Staff I April 08, 2014
This past weekend Multimedia Editor Chris Amos bolted on his summer wheels/tires and headed out to a local autocross hosted by the Corvette Club of Michigan at General Motors’ Cadillac assembly plant in Detroit.
 
Chris’s weapon of choice is a 2010 Volkswagen GTI with a six-speed manual gearbox, 225/40/17 Michelin Pilot Supersport rubber wrapped around BRAID 17" Winrace A wheels, an H&R 24mm rear sway bar, and a Magnaflow catback exhaust system.
