I got to see VWs race in Orange County in the early 70's. First and only time I saw one do a wheelie. They sounded like a very large bumblebee going down the track. They were fast. Came up from San Diego in an Austin Healey Sprite to the funny car championship. It was a great show but the hot VWs almost stole it.
Awesome! I’ve read about the story of this car in ‘The Story of the California Look VW’. Amazing to hear it from the guys themselves!
Nice glimpse of the past. ✌

When will they do another Grand National? HOT VWs, missed the last one. Hope they do it again
