i will get the trophy and I think I seen some where that bug racer was offering $ ???
at the end of the day if you show up and have the quickest vw youll be number 1
It would be nice to see lots of volkswagens out having some fun
so you can bring you beetle,kombi, golf , passat etc

May's a bit close to nationals

I'll be there.
I'll get some number plates from somewhere?

Come on no excuses, it's only another 70klm more than what we travel to get there you drive your vw's further than that.

We just want to know who's coming and there's July as well.

It would be good to see a lot me vw's there as there was only 2 of us there on the weekend. But we sure did suprize some V8 guys especialy with Buz as they think they have it won when they look at him but I'm gone by the time they take off.

They told me not to embarass them to much when I'm out there having fun.

You would have around 8 qualifying runs to get your quickest time.

And than you get another 3 knock out runs in the dial in.
So that's pleanty of runs to do a quick time.

Great idea guys!! How many have entered so far?? Is this restricted to VW's with original type engines only? So no Suby/ commodore/ rotary powered VW's??

Everbody is welcome, but if its not a vw power vw your not in the running for the trohpy but have the chance to take out the bracket racing

Hey Dave, i have an idea, your egine my beetle ( the registed one) LOL.

Dave would drive, I'm not that MAD.....

Does it have to be engineered?

compilcations complications

Great idea....someone had to do it, just keep it simple.....

Ian I'll be there in may barring any complications with my little engine.I would like to see the volksies run heads up in qualifying (8 runs you say)and winners keep racing winners til theres only 1 left street style!I'll spring for a burger dinner for the winner if you go that way and you can still have a trophy for the car that has quickest time in qualifying.So some one could get a trophy some one a burger or maybe someone gets both!

Ian great idea but still complicated someone will winge, As Rose says it better fun race and beating the V8 and 6 cyclinder boys giving them a taste of Pure VW




Col I seem to forget how many VW events or Drag races you have organised ???

You will be racing amoungst the V8 guys n girls they love it
It would be good for a vw to win the finals and show them.

So come along and help me.

I would like to see hypo-vw
A.k.a.: Wayne Penrose in his oval.

Craig Torrens
bug racer
Rodney
Vintage veedub
dangerous

& that mad black Kombi
just to name a few

i'll be there ian.

i'll aim for July

Tamworth Drag Association runs the Gunnedah Drags. That run over two days Sat & Sun and there are some cheap motel in town as well as a caravan park.

I think you can also sleep outside the track in the car park area you would just have to ask them.

We would be racing amongst all the other cars as they normally only have 3 classes eg. Bikes, cars & junior dragsters

Then on Sun after 3 runs the cars get put into 4 time categories for the finals. It’s worked out on times. Then its knock out on dial ins.
all races count for the quickest vw time .
so if your first run on the Saturday morning is the quickest over the weekend you ll be number 1 vw and still have a chance to take out the event win in the Sunday finals as well




Heaps of fun with a relaxed atmosphere.

From my last runs last year in Nov up at Gunnedah
I've got my reaction times from .273, .324 & .389 down to .119, .118, .009, .040, .002

So I can't wait to get back up there and beat them all at the start.

practice practice practice
