Anybody racing at the VW club of Vic Drag night on Feb 16?
I see that on the club web site it is advertised, but, not on this forum. Anybody from here going to race or watch?
Regards,
James C.

So apart from those VW Club members, who aren't on the forum, only Grey 57 & Brutus are going to run (& maybe bluetopless2?!).
How about you, vwfastback, will The Fastback be there? ANyone else? Doesn't sound like a lot of interest..
Brutus is booked in & will be there (if he gets there in one piece).

Been waiting for valves since December from the US of A. Still no sign of them, and I have an engine in pieces. I will be there to watch, and take
photos, but no racing this time.

Sorry guy's - have had to cancel at last moment. The 'boss' has just got out of hospital after a two week malady & is not recovered enough.
This means i can't go even to spectate. Have informed Chris the Club organiser. He is expecting "a few" VW's however (not sure of exact
number). If you go & run I hope you go well! My previous best time at Calder St drags was 17.27s in Brutus-I (a 1900cc type 3) many a year ago.
I'll be looking with interest to see how you go tonight & hope Brutus can take you on next time!

Love the way they waited until we were inside before they cancelled the event. The Rain was gone, the heat was returning and the track drying.
They initially wanted to give us tickets to next week instead, but finally gave us a refund.
I so much prefer Heathcote.
