I have had my 1303 to 135 on the track and was extremely stable, suspension and its settings are crucial, in my opinion the rear is a big issue at high speed on a beetle, if you are running tortion bars with old rubber bushes the toe is all over the place, unibal and coil over will fix that. I run small amount toe in on the rear and under load and tyre drag the rear is probably close to zero at high speed. The most frightening car i drove was me mates with 2.9 type 4, 230 odd hp, and when it had std rear end it was very dangerous, after unibal and coil overs and the right dial in, we did 140 no problem. Wont like a bumpy road tho!
