VW warwick schedule?
psimitar - September 26th, 2009 at 01:53 PM

just had a look at the program and it seems to say that the show and shine and swap meet is on the sunday. surely the swap meet and trade stands and some of the show and shine will be on the saturday too, as thats the only day i can make?

really hope that they are on the saturday too, cos will be a shame otherwise :)

ummm, i dont believe so. check with craig... or some other regulars....

there is 83 cars entered, so they will all be there on saturday+ others for the street parade ... :)

only ever seen it there on sundays. Saturdays a pretty full on day as it is.

LUFTMEISTER - September 26th, 2009 at 08:45 PM

Yep Sunday only. Racing and quailifing all day Saturday

psimitar - September 26th, 2009 at 08:49 PM

so both the show n shine and swap meet are sunday only?

VDUBXTC - September 26th, 2009 at 11:49 PM

Yup. Sunday only.

The show and shine and the swap meet are pretty small compared to most shows, Only because most are there for the races.
Last years show and shine wasn't a bad line up of cars, but you got to see most of them sitting around the place and also down in the main street on saturday.

THe swap meet. well there was more to choose from at the local tip.

Thats cool. racing is fun but I like all the pretty cars too, as the wife would say :) so glad I get to see both. Wasn't too fussed on the swap meet as I have most parts to put mine back together, I think :!:

The weekend is all about drag racing, however, there is a Saturday morning street parade, and a show'n'shine on Sunday. The show'n'shine is a judged show by VWMA staff with trophies awarded at the trophy presentation 2pm Sunday.

Most swap and traders are themselves competing, but there is usually a few who set-up adjacent to the burn-out pad.
