Introducing Volksfest . . . one of the most popular of the original 'new wave’ of VW events, Volksfest was actually the first show to be run in association with Volksworld Magazine, which is celebrating its 20th birthday this year. Volksfest has always celebrated all things VW, never including any major content which was not 100% VW oriented. The show made a massive leap forward last year, with the return after many years of VW Drag Racing, in the form of a ‘Run What You Brung’ meeting,which permits visitors with their driving licence and the signing on fee, to run their own vehicle. Without losing the focus on VWs, it was fantastic to see Bugs and Golfs alongside all-comers, from early Fords to Rolls Royces, on the dragstrip. This year the formula will be much the same, with the dragstrip, the superb Show ‘N’ Shine, with classes for both Aircooled and Watercooled VWs, The Traders, Autojumble, Cars for Sale, Bar and Food Area, Club Displays, in fact everything needed for a hugely enjoyable VW day out. As usual the Autojumble pitches are free, the Show ‘N’ Shine is free to enter, you can enter on the day with no hassle, provided you turn up before entries close (judging starts at midday). The Top Ten Aircooled, Top Ten Watercooled system, which includes a Best of Show for each, has been developed as the fairest way of rewarding effort and excellence. Please don’t let the idea that you may not win stop you entering. It is free, and as far as we are concerned, the more the merrier! The signing of fee for unlimited runs on the track will again be £15, sign on and race a 'Yank' - it’s good to see a smug smile wiped from the face of a V8 owner now and then.
