What kind of photos you want to see?
I had my photo coverage of the Bug O Rama in the last issue of Craig's Volkswagon Magazine of Australia.
I will be contributing on a regular basis with race coverage and car features.
Just curious, what and who you would like to see ?
Muffler Mike,Eric Calebrese (Red Baron), Eric Madson's 8.55 sec ghia, etc?
Let me know I want to give you all what you enjoy seeing

Anything to do with volksy drag racing will be fine with me.
From what i've seen on your website exactly what your doing now.

Hello Brian,
thanks for posting the photos on the sites and also the ones we see in Craig's Mag.
I am a fan, as you know of anything engine and chassis related...secrets from the pits!,
but I am also a fan of the startline action and burnout box...wheels up is a sure favourite!
Dave.

I like reading about all the car set ups with pics included. But more so i would like to see some pics etc of the "unusual" drag VW's doing the
rounds. Whether it's a weird engine combo or someone who has set up a 181/2 for drag racing for instance is what I love to have a peep at.

Brain ,thanks to guys like yourself that put in a huge effort for our love of vw's and drag racing.
I'd like to see the people faces that we all look up to ,as we know there cars but not them.
Great photo's to date .( action , pit shots ,motor ,workshops, new cars )On or web site.
The biggest problem at the moment with vw magazine's is repeat or same storys (cars features) in the same month as each other !!! Hotvws ,Volksworld
,VwUltra .
I know contributors all have do there job and its not there fault but vw pubishers will lose issue book buyers.
thanks Peter Page

Amen to all the above... couple of other cars we never see details on over here;
Kris (?) Lauffers 9 second ragtop bug
And the Fiat / VW specials over there - I think I saw in one of the US mags an 850 spyder that ran in the 9s and a 600 with a nearly 3 liter VW
mill...... thats cool with a capital K in my books....

| The convertable you mean? He rarely brings it out and they now are buiding a ProMod car to be on the track by seasons end. As well
as getting the old front engine dragster racing with new paintthis weekend(I'll get photos).
They also have converted the rear engine dragster to rice power because of sponsors offering up deals they can't refuse. The aren't leaving VWs but
will try both.
