Beetle Bash....VW Race..Final Results
Great pics. Love that there is a limited spread of models...really should show off how different modding can make the difference. My car looks like a giant!
Love those VW Turbos. I think have one on the Fantasy hooks but need to find me a few more as backup. I really liked modding the Bugs. Lots of room for extras while not being a giant truck or van.

Ok, video is uploading... some great racing today. I still struggle a bit with iMovie. I used the slo-motion feature, but in some cases the video went to normal speed at the beginning, or right at the end... a bit frustrating. Fishtail tells me it is because the videos are too long... oh well thats what I get for using slo-mo on the low and slow track.
Some epic battles today... the racing will get faster from here on out, bigger ramps will bring the speed and other cars to the front of the pack.
Other notes, wide range of music today...had to fill 14min of video. I even put in Green Onions for Smitty. Black cars are darn hard to see on my track...sorry.
- Awesome job on the video, TE! Thanks for hosting! — 72_Chevy_C10
- Plenty of come from behind action... — Traction-Event
Well damn, so close to a podium finish! I think this is the best any of my mods have ever done, so I'll take it. Had a lot of confidence in that little bug...he earned his 4th place. It's encouraging heading into the next tracks.
Good job on the video. Really makes me start thinking about how to pain the roof of my cars so they're easy to see. Not just for black tracks but in general.
Awesome video and soundtrack! That was some amazing racing real fast builds all around, I think it's going to be a close series, gonna have to fight to hold on to the Winner Title!
- Yes, no one car stood with out a fight... even the champ traded wins with Rally Case early on... — Traction-Event
- you and I had some crazy close racing today... — Traction-Event
- Yes we did, I'm excited about that as I Use your and C10s cars as a reference point and personal goal to keep up with — Eastbound357
Great video and sound track for sure. Congratulations to Eastbound357 on the win. This is going to be fun for sure!!

My cars were pathetic, but my nephew won a couple races and almost a 3rd. Way to go DT....
- My mistake DT only beat me but did make RLD work for his win......Stroller — Stroller
- solid builds, but he ran into some fast cars...his deuce bug will do well with a higher take off ramp. — Traction-Event
Good racing, Guys! Congrats 2Seven! I never even considered building the newer style bug!
My cars were definitely not prepared for TE's low and slow! I guess it shows how much I know about building imports! :)
Great job with the video, TE! And thanks for hosting!
Sure looks like a good field of cars. When is the first race?
