Sacramento Bugorama pics

G'day. Here are some pics from the SAC bugorama that I attended on the weekend.

I went mainly for the racing but the show was pretty cool and swap meet was insane.

Eric Calabrase in the Red Baron went 8.23 @ 177 in one of his runs which was amazing to see - he ended up winning the pro mod final against Kris Lauffer who had mechanical issues but ran 8.4 earlier in the day which shows huge promise for his car.

Anyway, pics:



Marty Staggs' pro mod fasty (had turbo and carb problems over the weekend) - next weekend I visit Marty's place to check out the final details of my turbo injected engine that will go into my oval later this year (very excited!)


Beautiful super street car of Mark Prothero

Amazing how many of the racers over here in the US have crazy setups like this including tow vehicles, enclosed trailers etc

What on earth is going on here? Is that a split-screen pickup single cab section on a Beetle pan? With some sort of home-made box fenders and part of an old trailer??!

I've tried to make it a public album so hopefully it worked....more pics here:

i dont like street cars with shopping lists on the side of them. Even more when I see a 181 with a ralliart sticker. :puke

Thanks for posting awsome cars there
wish we had the shows like that here in aus

One day i might go on a tour with Rod

It is so cool to see this posted here. A friend of mine from Sacramento built this. While it might not be to everyones taste (chopping a Ghia like this) there is no denying the metal work skills, chopping something with so many compound curves etc.

He runs a VW business called "The Resurrection Project" and he has some MAD skills!!

Thanks for sharing the pics Das!!
