just curious thats all,

don't open this can of worms dude.....you'll get the whole, but it's gotta be aircooled to be a dub, or have original chassis....or a whole host of other replies....

Think Dangerous (dave butler) has the best signature on the forum....Go the Volksies! Whatever the engine! (mind you, not sure if he means what ever the 'aircooled' engine...

Fastest or quickest?

Legal or not legal?

salt lake or 1/4? mate has a 850 hp c10 chevy pick up with a vw logo bean bag in the back ( for the drive in ) does that count?

young dubbers or "OLD" dubbers?????? hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce

actual or theoretical......

how about we have two answers to get rid of the question of aircooled or not..could format it something like this

Fastest aircooled volkswagen automobile : (post time here)

Fastest non aircooled volkswagen automobile : (post time here) (in a straight line we are talking and over the 1/4 mile.

simple enough for yas ?

Anthony

Search for the Top 50 Aussieveedubbers Drag Times post, that has a bunch of peoples 1/4 mile times in it.

For me, it would be Mr Penrose with his 8.96 or the pommy guy Automanics, who runs a Razor ghia in the 8's as well.

Forgive me if I'm wrong Dave, I cant recall how quick your blown car was ??

By the way, I'm just guessing here, and my opinions are not official !

NOT ME

not me either, that narrows it down a bit more

yer anyone on this forum counts, because then its vee dub enough,

young dubber was what iz curious about,

cos i know there is some awesome bugs out there, one young guy in northam (W.A.) has a rocket he built n he isn't old enough to have a licence yet i dont think

yer i wasnt guna be all technical with quater times but if ya wana post it..... what the hell eh, be good to see

lets see... old BC does 0-100k's in 5 minutes... and tops out about 120k's

mine goes fast enough for me :bounce :bounce :bounce

prolly a helluvalot faster than Buttercup ...who is being a total pain in my ass since about a week ago! :cussing:

well that was conclusive then. Whos got the most cupboard space?.

is that available cupboard space left over ? or total volume of cupboard space? house garage or Kombi, or all?

columbus - 0-100 in 20 seconds

Being rebuilt by... Me
Fast enough for now, but she only does about 135-140 kph max.
-Staggers.

on a standard 1600 thats pretty good
altho 14" rims make the speedo read abit faster
i;ve clocked my Lbug once
oil light so bit over 160 on cut springs so im not sure how i didnt die LOL
wont be doing that again

-Joel

i knew this photo was buried somewhere on the hard drive
trust me ppl VWs are not safe at these speeds specially on cut springs LOL
i only tried it coz it was 5:30am and i was the only car on the road so i'd only kill me:o

-Joel

mine read about 5km/h fast with 185/70 on
they're bout 1" smaller than stock 165 15"s
so anything bigger shouldnt make much diff

-Joel

lol, maxing out ur speedo with speed over 160kms in a dangerous dub with only one hand on the wheel! GOOD ON YA MATE!

Hmm, might be dave, dunno, but he knows his engine stuff. saw his ute few weeks back, asked him bout his tray-full of V8 cranks, he must work with alot of VERY nice engines :P

ahh...joel...now i know why there was the game of 'tag, ur it' going on, on the trip down to valla...

100 to zero in 1 second flat = "ARRHHH FAAArK!'

was funny to watch from my car though....

btw...like all good vw's ur speedo was broken and the needle was stuck...u weren't really going that fast..not really...(pst, u know there are coppers on here right??)

and edith can go ZOOM ZOOM fast...she pops her pressure valve when she does...but she can...

i just love her too much to push her that hard...:kiss..

i had the big time shits with the bug that morning
i'm a shocker for taking aggression out on cars when im pissed off
thought it would make a good kodak moment tho LOL
luckily i've grown up abit since then and dont drive like a f--khead anymore
ok yes i did wind her up to pass u all to get that video on the way down to valla but she needed her legs stretched LOL

-Joel

Vroooooooooooooom

Lucky b*****!....If I tried to drag mine the clutch would possibly disintegrate, chances are the conrods would snap, and more than likely the gearbox fall to pieces hehehe

Hey wait a tick, scoobydoos don't count.. cheating swine you are, Mr "I like shifting into 2nd at 6000rpm"!!! :P :puke
