Jay Mctoldridge

I’d done a few track days in my old RX7 and loved it. As a huge fan of the Berg Cup in germany I wanted to build a car like they run out there, So hence a MK1 Polo. I run a engineering company and also a car show promotions company and am obsessed with Retro cars!!!

Now seeing the high levels of preperation, organization and skillnow involved, we decided to give it a go but in something completely different. We had planned to use the car in hillclimbing and sprint’s, but for me TA is the pinnacle of sprints so why not. I love the idea of a 32 year old car goin up against the Godzilla’s of cars you see in TA regularly!!!Current sponsors / thank yous: Martin Barker, HRP,Gwerks,JTC Dubdesign, Dubz by Dan,KW Suspension, PVW and Retro Cars, Meguiars,Rockstar,Performance Trim, Trim Deluxe.
