Happy days. Lined up against Dave Rhoads in my ''cal looker'' right stance, gas burner wheels, 1776cc ,der-transaxle close ratio box. Only problem was the champagne pink colour  Which Ivan reminded me of at VW action He must have been dazzled as he broke an axle shaft coming off the line.  The biggest bummer that weekend was the pro-turbo cars crashing which made even more annoying as some folk were more interested in watching the European football in the big tent. I felt so bad for these guys. |

I've got that on video somewhere too!
If I remember rightly I'd got my beetle with the '67 lid, long bonnet (and upright wings!), dechromed and painted appliance white, but was still on stock wheels and a lowered rear end. Got home and raised the back end and decided that I'd go racing at some point soon! Took another three years, but I got there!

hey, did you have a license yet? and that red bug with the sprintstars here on the picture is a fine looking machine. maybe not a showstopper, but i really like it and the more is see them the more i like those sprintstars. |

went to this show with my brother and and girlfriend of the time took our ratty bug and ranthem both into the 15's with daily driven 1776's and had a great laugh with our mates unfortunatly we didn't take our cameras too busy thinking about running our cars    I remember meeting flatfire and having a right good chat, seem to remember one of your mate running a stateside 2110 in his car and having some trouble with it? I remember the cars - you'd just had a page in Volksworld if I remember right and I though that the '67 was so cool! |

I remember that show Bill Swimmers car and Dave Rhode's car , the Keith Goss chop wow , it all was going great till they wanted to go home ? wasn't this the show the funds went a bit wrong ? There was supposed to be the Prodigy playing sat night , but no money no play . Didn't the guys have to have a whip round to get the yanks home ? |
