GTL – VW Scirocco 1 by Custom Compagneros released.

Custom Compagneros released the long awaited VW Scirocco 1 mod for GT Legends.

The Scirocco – Iconic Sportscar of the 70s

A long-kept dream has now become reality: to let you experience the Scirocco in all its glory. More than 3 years of development and thousands of hours invested may illustrate, how high our aims were to bring this car to GT Legends in the most authentic way. The outcome makes us proud and we are happy to finally be able to share this with you, the community.

After its ‘disastrous’ motorsports debut with the VW Junior Cup in 1976 the Scirocco quickly made its way into a variety of touring car championships of that decade with greater success. Other than the ETCC and various other german and european championships the Scirocco played a role in the Trans Am and the SCCA GT3 Championship in America.

In this mod you will find many significant cars from the Sciroccos motorsport history down to the smallest detail. Cars from the VW Junior Cup, from the ETCC and DRP as well as the remarkable cars of Bill Scott and Milt Minter from the Trans Am series and the 2-times SCCA GT3 champion Tom Davey with his eye-catching black and yellow Scirocco. The line up is completed by some modern Sciroccos of KWL Motorsport and Team Menden

Stock fender club racing cars.
Division 2 ETCC
1976 Trans Am
And late 70s SCCA GT3

Club car:
It seemed in the mid 70s most places that raced cars, had some sort of Scirocco cup racing .
Not a lot of power or grip it is a good car to race as a single make, just like it was in real life.
–

The Group 2 ETCC car is perhaps the most famous. Becoming very successful in the new division 2 class after the FIA changed all of the group 2 rules in 1976.
Not surprisingly it is the most represented car in the mod.
More power, grip, and making some down force in the front with a real spoiler. If driven well it is able to put up a good fight with some of the bigger Div-3 and 4 ETCC cars that have been done for GTL.

There are both 4 and 5 speed Group-2 cars included.
–

In 1975 Bill Scott had 2 Scirocco’s built for the Trans Am series. With support from VW they were basically copies of Group-2 cars with different body work
These 2 cars are also here with very slightly different physics from the Div-2 cars and just as fast.
–

In 1979 Tom Davey took 2 Div-2 Scirocco chassis built by Muller racing in Germany, installed dry sump supervee engines in them and won the SCCA GT3 championship.
These 2 cars are also here with more power and weight then the other 2.
