VW Drag Night

Lane AndersonLane AndersonMt. Pleasant, SC Supporting Member
I probably should have posted this earlier, but some of the local VW folks have organized VW Drag Night for this Saturday in Greelyville, SC, which is about an hour north of Charleston. This is turning out to be a pretty good sized event, with a party on Kiawah Island Friday evening that includes free music and a show and shine. That part is about an hour south of town. The drag night event starts at 1:00pm Saturday and runs until the wee hours. Hot VWs is going to be there, along with some vendors. The event includes drag racing, a car show, and an after-race party. Check out www.vwdragnight.com for details. Any Speedsterites and Spyderoids in the Carolinas should consider coming.

And no, Vince, "vwdragnight" does NOT mean that we're all wearing dresses ;-)

The weather was hot in the afternoon, but dryer than normal and unseasonably pleasant after sunset. I'm told that the racing went on until 2am Sunday - good thing it was out in the country. Cars came from all over the country, and many folks loved the party the night before as much as the drag night itself. I think the organizers were pleasantly surprised at how big it turned out to be, and most of us expect it to be larger next year. Between the drag cars and the street cars, there were well over 100 - not bad for a first time.

Roger that. The same guy who organized this get-together just got that buggy delivered from Kustom Coach Werks, who also built his two drag cars (one of which is pic 0015). He also owns the grey Ghia roadster that he built with the help of my friend Ken Erwin. I think he also owns a street sedan or two. And finally, he's the lead guitarist in a local rock band. Some guys have all the luck.
