VW Warwick Drags - Impressive Field


Twenty-eight confirmed Volkswagen racers will be competing at the Warwick Weekend. This is tremendous news. I have received a number of enquiries about late entries, and they are being accepted on a case by case means, so please contact me prior to the event. The field could possibly grow to 35, which will make for some great entertainment.

Below are the confirmed racers (watercooled cars to be added soon once their specs arrive). Some have pics and times, others are first timers to the track.

Looks like being a hoot of a weekend!

• Dave Becker - 2165cc 1969 Cal Look Beetle. 12.88 for the quarter.

This is one quality field. If you want to see the best Volkswagens that this country can throw down the eighth mile strip, then Warwick is the place to take a seat.

As I said, late entries phone Craig on 0419 735 596.

Gate passes, bumper stickers, day program and information sheet will be sent to all confirmed competitors next week.

I have a t-shirt design ready. It's just a question of having it done before the event. There will only be 50 made, and then orders taken if they sell out.

Yes, full coverage in VWMA issue#12. Matt Sherwood is responsible for these forum pics, and his work is top notch.

DVD? Damn, another thing to think about. Any volunteers?

Bloody hell I am getting excited! Can't wait to meet some of these guys and learn as much as I can for future drag endeavours (I have a feeling I'll be doing a lot more drag racing in coming months/years!).

I've pulled the Speedster out and she started after a bit of coughing (hasn't run in 9 months) so if the entry is accepted I'll be there......:P She hasn't been the same after losing the front in an accident....still 1916 powered.

Anyone out there putting together a DVD of the day? If so I'd be keen to buy a copy,as many others would be.

Additionally has anyone heard of any media coverage for the event, speed week etc.
