68 Beetle - rebuilding 😵💫
65 beetle - driving 😎
Trent Demos
U2U me I'll find his email address.
Is that a locally built offering?...A very nice looking bit of kit for sure!
Ron Lummus Gear i think. Might have been put together locally i think.
testing 1 2 3...
Was with C&V originally now I think he has gone to City Performance?
yeh, car has been built by city performance. Crazy car ahh!!! Those guys do know what there on about. Car gets quicker every time. Think its getting a refresh as we write. This will be the quickest VW i belive.
Was thinking of taking my car there. Does anyone know how good they are?
Heard there booked for the next six months! Could that be possible?
Lets know!!!!
I know that Larry Still did all the chassis assembly and welding
after the kit came in from Ron Lummus as a bunch of tubes.
I think after that Trent has had trouble finding the right person
to work on the car....but it turned out great!
Knowing how much I had invested in my car, and how I
did most of the work myself, I would say there is over 150G in
that car.
Yes, with the right crew on the job it will be very fast.
So far bests of 10.40's@140+ I believe.

This car is a very nice looking bit of kit.... What sort of driveline they running? We can not possibly have enough of these sort of Dubs at the track...IMHO. Can't wait for some of the other PRO style cars start making moves for the ranks....
Keep the flag flyin boys...All of VWOz is behind you!
Did he end up converting to injection?
testing 1 2 3...
Last I heard it was EFI on methanol and 2700cc Pauter and T1 tranny.

The car is at city performance getting a motec with traction control ,launch control and anti lag, with full data logging.
They do some amazing stuff.
This chassis started live as a Ron Lummus kit ( chrome-moly-64kgs) Larry Still did all the fine work putting it together. Scale it-make your own!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi to all ...this is my first post on the forum...Rod Penrose mentioned that there was some discussion about my drag car on the weekend at the shoot-out ,so i thought that i better check it out.... so here i am.
I noticed that there is a bit of discussion as to who actually
built the car.
All the parts came from RLR and initial fabrication was by larry....the rest of the car planning fabrication and assembly was done by cv performance & city performance .
CV RACING sponsor the tune up and pit crew for the car and have been a great influence with the car....CITY PERFORMANCE CENTRE perform all fabrication and installation ....they are currrently fitting a mendeola transmission and the motec ecu,cdi and dash...
BOTH OF THESE BUSNISESS COME HIGHLY RECOMENDED
AS WELL AS RON LUMMUS RACING.....
Hope this information is informative and look forward to being a part of aussieveedubbers

Welcome Trent....And more power to you for building such a fine car! You and Rod and Pete and Dave and all the others I haven't mentioned are an inspiration to all of us!
Keep on keeping the faith man...We love fast dubs at the track!
Hi Trent
10.45
@145 is fantastic. Looks like from your speed the Et is going to come down a lot once the car is sorted. you should be able to do a low 9 . I cant wait to see the car at the track again.
Welcome Trent, nice work.You will deffently keep people watching:thumb...JVLRacing
Went to city performance today.
Took a photo with my phone of trents mendeola installed .Sorry about the picture quality.
There was another blue vw with 2.2 l turbo injected street car in the making. Their work is only of the highest quality, a lot of race cars and drag cars.
sorry no photo, try again
that car is really money no object isn't it 😵
Something about a 'Poiter BIG Block/Spendeola' combo that gets me all excited ! 🤪
i must go have a cold shower now.....😍
tooo much information :duh :puke
