VW just released the schedule for the 2009 season of the Jetta TDI Cup. The series pits young racers against each other in wheel-to-wheel action in what are essentially street-going versions of the Jetta TDI. That means diesel racing, kids. The company says it can get four races out of a single tank of fuel out of the cars, tweaked to 170 horsepower and around 300 lb-ft of torque. Sound good? The series has events all over the country, so odds are there will be a show in your area soon. Hop the jump to see the schedule for yourself. [Source: VW]
