Title: Next VW in the 7s in europe, who will it be Post by: richie on August 20, 2015, 16:06:24 pm I have just seen Leif has gone 8.12@278 kmh[172mph] today at Tierp, with according to eurodragster a pedal as well :o with Jens Petter running 8.03 in the Skinne beetle last weekend the race is on to be the next VW in the 7s, could we soon have three 7 second cars in Europe? 8)
I already made plans to take the cabrio to BRC and SCC next year, now we just need to get them all together :) cheers Richie Title: Re: Next VW in the 7s in europe, who will it be Post by: Mags on August 20, 2015, 16:51:39 pm And what about Trond new Car ;D

Title: Re: Next VW in the 7s in europe, who will it be Post by: BeetleBug on August 20, 2015, 18:31:39 pm Who will be next is one thing.. who will be the fastest is another interesting question :) The weather forecast is looking really promising for Tierp and the Skinne beetle is ready for the last race at Gardermoen Sept 5-6. After that we have the last race at Kjula which use to be a really good one with good air and good traction.
