So much fun to go to a car show and racing event. Way Cool that you went taking the VW Beetle. I miss going to events with the VW Car Club I was a member of. Thanks for taking us along, Great Job on the Video. Have a great week and keep VeeDub’n my friend. BigW:-)
Big W Adventures I greatly you as well. Keep your ears open, I’m sure there’s a club near your new place. Thank you for always being here and I wish you both a wonderful week.
Lmao. Just send the fake GoPro flyin over your shoulder. Love it. That’s awesome that y’all had fun and got to run your bug. Keep your head up brother and keep on smilin.
I thought this was a vw show til half way through the video. Huge vw apperenace. Im glad you had a great time. Last time I went to a dragstrip Ken Fisher set world speed record in freedom one bug. You know its been a long time. My favorite part of your videos is the dashboard view going down the roadways. Great to see the I girl logging some miles, while your logging smiles. Catch you on the next video.
After my son and I would leave a vw car show he would say, wow dad got some cool memories today..will buddy you got some cool memories at the track on a perfect day.
Man. That’s what it’s about! Having fun and being with friends and vw’s. Some of these guys at the shows get so pissed they don’t win trophy’s.... I do it for the awesome people and vws. Cool vids man.
Dj H you’re exactly right, I’ve never attended a show for the win or trophy, it’s about the community, people, atmosphere... not to mention getting away from the day to day life crap. Glad you’re one of the people that understand what it’s really about and thanks for your comment.
VWJawbreaker yeah I too have got everyday crap going on with both of my parents sick. So I’ve been building a 1915 for my 65. Almost done. And a Wright gearbox pro street:)
Outstanding Video Brother!! Great reaction time!!! You had a good time and that’s what matters!! I didn’t buy a go pro, I bought a van true, i’ll check the name pretty sure that’s it for my wife’s car. We have had it for three years and never skips a beat and it’s just as good as the go Pro. If views what’s in front of you and the inside of the vehicle and it’s like HD. I think we paid about 200 bucks. I am truly excited for you, I would’ve been shaking too. I have not raced at the track in about 20 years, about the same. You had a good time and that’s what matters! Great Video bro!
Slades VW Beetle thanks brother, we had a great time and to me that was the most important thing. This is the first I’ve been on a track in over 20 years so it was a blast to be out there again. Not to mention Levi had a blast also!
VWJawbreaker Oh I bet he had a blast!! That’s so awesome for a younger fellow to see!! My wife said this morning who was up before me, “Gary put a new video up”. 😳😂
@@VWJawbreaker Hey that ain't a far fight! You're in the basketball league from the looks of things and I'm a mere Hobbit at 5'4. ;) Mind you, I'd probably fit the drivers seat better, hehehe.
Nice vid! Looks like yall had a great time! Which no-pro was it that crapped out on you? Looked a lot like my apeman. Mine still works pretty well, but the lens wont focus (POC) Keep up the good work!
G'day man Kevin here from Australia. Great video thankyou for sharing it with me. Your so right its always good to hang out with friends and if that includs playing with your Volkswagens well that just makes it that much more perfect. ✌ Peace man
Kevin Hamling Levi was in heaven all day, seeing all of the different cars run the track.... he had the same look of awe on his face as I did my first time to the track as a kid.
Man I didn't realize I'm so far behind on your vids! It's been a crazy year! I love all cars and man that Henry J in the pits was cool!!! Looks like an awesome day! Great to see you go down the track!
So what do think of those pushrod tubes after all these miles? I had to smile when you mentioned the lash caps. hehehe Been there and had the struggle.
That is truly awesome looks like you had a fun day down there at the track! As far as the cameras concern to have you looked into the ghost camera made by drift? That's what I use an absolutely love.
ils360 thanks man, we all had a great day. Just the kind of day I needed to relax! I have not heard of that camera, but I will research it right now.... thanks man!!
That is so awesome.....do they always have that kind of VDub turn out at that track? I need to check the schedule and take Chris there ASAP. Nice job, and thanks for sharing.
Getting ready to fire up my 2187 and I was wondering if you had any tips for my first start up it has dual carburetors and I’ve been watching yours trying to learn how to sync them
Nothing better than family, friends and VW's!
buglover65 amen to that!

Volkswagenplanet it did seem like a show with the VW presence. Thanks for coming along as always and for being such an amazing person.
@@VWJawbreaker I'm glad I got the chance to meet you. Truely a friend

Dj H man, sorry about your parents. Things will get better one way or another.
I’m definitely jealous of that transmission!
Great job on the track. It’s great to see you so happy and passionate
Thanks, it has been a long time since I was on a track. Felt good that day even though my launch was slow lol

She’s awesome!
VWJawbreaker She likes your channel. Lol You honestly did good. Especially after 20 years brother. I would have been nerved a little 😃
Great day at the track, thanks for sharing!
Haptic Garage indeed it was, can’t beat a nice day with friends.
Great adventure....
Agreed, always fun hanging with friends
4:17 Forgive me Lord, I'm having lustful thoughts about this buggy.;) Green is an appropriate color as that's the color of my envy! What a wild ride!
And that bug is even faster than it use to be.... trust me, I’d fight you for that bug 😁🤣
@@VWJawbreaker Hey that ain't a far fight! You're in the basketball league from the looks of things and I'm a mere Hobbit at 5'4. ;)
Mind you, I'd probably fit the drivers seat better, hehehe.
@@martinharris5017 lol, you’d definitely fit in it better! 😂
Any day with a bunch of Bugs, is a good day. Wish I knew. I would have come over.
Ron Cooke man I wish you could have made it over, we all had a great time hanging out.
Nice vid! Looks like yall had a great time! Which no-pro was it that crapped out on you? Looked a lot like my apeman. Mine still works pretty well, but the lens wont focus (POC) Keep up the good work!
It was some Amazon special knockoff, I don’t remember the brand. Since then I switched to an actual gopro and haven’t had any issues.
G'day man Kevin here from Australia. Great video thankyou for sharing it with me.
Your so right its always good to hang out with friends and if that includs playing with your Volkswagens well that just makes it that much more perfect.
✌ Peace man
Kevin Hamling you nailed it on the head my man. Thanks for being here Kevin!
@@VWJawbreaker I bet Levi was so proud of his old man going down the track. And seeing the engine that he helped build stay together. ✌

It’s been a crazy year that’s for sure. Keep doing what you’re doing, taking care of the family... that’s most important.
So what do think of those pushrod tubes after all these miles? I had to smile when you mentioned the lash caps. hehehe Been there and had the struggle.
So far, 5k plus mikes, I haven’t had a single issue with them. Haven’t seen these for sale again from cb but the cb ones are pretty much the same.
Awesome day !! Man.. Your car has wayyy more in it 👍👍👍
The turnout was sweet
VW RICH FLAT4 it was a great day and we all had a good time, that’s what matters most.

Having fun at the track is the best part of the run.
Moe
jdmeaux yes sir Moe, it’s all about having a good time and relaxing. Thanks for being here.
Jawbreaker getting it!!! Great video!! I'm going to get "Sonic" out on a track someday.
JAY ALEX anytime you can spend the day with VW friends, it’s a good day imo!! Thanks for watching and for your comment, have a great rest of the week.
That is so awesome.....do they always have that kind of VDub turn out at that track? I need to check the schedule and take Chris there ASAP. Nice job, and thanks for sharing.
2 Guys and a Bug not sure if they always have that kind of turn out. It’s worth the trip, we had a great time hanging out.
Love this, my 65 with 40 horses barely gets out of her own way 😜
There’s nothing wrong with a good stock engine. Simple and very reliable.
That was sooooooooooooo cool!!!!!!!!!
William Cronin it was such a great time! VW’s, friends and track time!
See you soon, Lakeland is around the corner.
Nice vid garry 👌
random person thank you for watching.
Sweet job at the track keep it up brother
frank fullone hopefully next time I can let her really rip lol
Getting ready to fire up my 2187 and I was wondering if you had any tips for my first start up it has dual carburetors and I’ve been watching yours trying to learn how to sync them
I have a few tips for you, I’ll reply to your email shortly.
Well said!! 🤟🏽
Thanks!
What heads and cam did you use on the 2054?
Details should be in the videos in the play list.
CB 044 CNC Ultra Mag heads 42 x 37.5, FK8 cam.
Pretty dang good reaction time! Looking forward to the SEVWA VWs at The Rock in March!
Mike P reaction time was good, my 60ft sucked lol
Is that you or the car?
Mike P both for the most part. Taking it easy on the stock transmission and cv axles, plus haven’t been on a track in 20 years.
Gotcha. Folks at the strip probably don’t want you leaving transmission pieces and gear lube all over the place.
Mike P I think some were expecting it, especially with a bunch of VW’s going down the track 😂
Great video! I use the DJI OSMO ACTION and it works great!
Madstiles thanks man! I’ll definitely look into that camera. Thanks for the info!
You ever come up to the Carolinas for the vw events?
Not yet, been wanting to just to spectate but it never seems to work out time wise.
Need to check out Scott Sain show coming up. Facebook him
@@newmantv5668 I’ll look him up.
Couldn’t find the Scott Sain Show.
Germanairre drag day
I know this is 2 yrs old video but what's next for vdub
Haven’t done many upgrades to this bug since then, I’ve been working on another build.
Hey I would love to meet you at the track with my VW..... hopefully I'll see you soon. I have a 66' turbo VW.
I only went down the track that one day. Still running a stock gearbox and don’t want to buy a new one lol
@@VWJawbreaker Cool I haven't taken my car down the track ever but I'm getting there. I need to get an proper tune then I'm good to go.
@@AIRCOOLEDLIFE would be cool to see it at some point!
83 in a VW?
VW Life that’s nothing 😁
Nothing so crappy that our dubs can't fix.
👍
Vintage 76 vipergreen # Romeo thank ya sir.
