OK, this is definitely happening on the October Long Weekend and the organisers are hoping 500 Kombis will turn up (got to aim high).This is an official guiness record attempt. There will also be awards for "oldest", "newest", "most miles/kms on the clock", "best decorated", "most people in a kombi", and I'll try for "longest distance travelled to attend",and I will attempt to get a swap meet put on the agenda, to give you guys another reason to turn up. This is not a "car show" so we want all kombis not just the shiny ones, and it appears as though it is for all models from day 1 through that rolled off the assembly line yesterday.
This is to become an annual event so if you all show up the first time it will help ensure it will continue for years to come.
So can everybody please drop me there club contact details so we can get some information around to people.
More later on.
Cheers

I have an idea that they had 800+ vans, bus's and campers, both splits and bays in California some years ago.
BUT the Yanks also held the world record for "trucks" (UTES) but we knocked that off so go for it.!!!!!:thumb

World Records that we are attempting to set on the day include:
The largest gathering of VW Campervans- Official record set by the Canadians in 1999 and stands at 489 Campervans.
VW Campervan cramming- the most amount of bodies in a campervan. This is a new record you shall set.
VW Beetle Cramming- the most amount of bodies in a beetle (currently set at 25).
The fastest engine switch- record set by the Germans using a beetle at 1 minute and 37 seconds.

Pity it's so far away for Vic and SA T2's. A more central location would give the record a good nudge. And maybe at a time when there are likely to be more in the one place at the one time....like the Nationals for example.
I am hoping you are now able to see the official poster, registration form & car window invitation. Please feel free to print these out and put them in your place of work/business, give to your kombi driving friends, post them on your club websites etc etc etc.

OK so the "kombi record" part of the weekend is to be held on Saturday October 1st and yes at this stage we will be competing against the record of 489 in Canada. And as there are "markets" to be held at the same time in the same general area I have been given the go ahead to tell anyone who is interested in a "swap meet" (traders included) they can do so as part of the markets, it will cost you $20 for a site/stall so bring all those parts you want to unload.
We are hoping to get aerial photos of the kombiswhen they are assembled.
There is also going to be the following non kombi related activities spread over the saurday & sunday: tennis tournament,rugby sevens tournament, baketball shootout, day/night cricket, quilt & craft displays,classic cars, old time dance, parades, pony rides, jumping castle, slides & light aircraft activity (we have a small airstrip).
So come one, come all.
More later
