VWMA Editor · 2013-01-17T12:02:23+00:00

Hi All, Registrations are now open for Round 1 of the VWMA 2013 drag racing series at Sydney on February 23rd. Entries must be received by VWMA no later than Friday February 15th. Sydney Dragway have offered the Volksies their own day again this year based on the impressive numbers for the first event. As long as the VW drag racing community in Australia continues to support the series, then events like Sydney and Warwick will stay on the calendar. Please visit www.vwma.net.au for all the details. Cheers Craig

Got 50 klms north of Gundagai before getting a phone call that it had been cancelled, so turned around and headed back to sunny Melbourne. 1,100 klm round trip, was absolutely stuffed when I got home. That's racing!

When the mobile billboards are flashing " STAY AWAY, highway closed numerous places" it's pretty worrying. On that short stretch there are 6 trees that fell completely across the road and dozens blocking the whole lane on either side, countless limbs big enough to stop you on the spot and a couple complete with cars buried under them.

Glad no one is traveling now or facing the haul tomorrow evening or Sunday, new England will be the only option for returning north for those that went early

Hopefully another date is set and if not, I'm happy to donate my entry fee to Craig and WSID if it means the event can be booked again and return next year.... For sure the price of traveling thru this weather could be very costly indeed.

Ps I kinda hope it does piss down at the creek tomorrow now it's been canned on that basis

Wow, glad we were running late and turned around before we reached that carnage......

As stated, above, quietly very happy the forecast was right for today.
