volksworld show

you’ve all seen some funky pics of the recent volksworld show allready, i am sure … just wanted to share my highlights with the bloggers …

IMGP7744

we were quite early, so started setting up the cars immediatly.

IMGP7762

i was quite impressed with the panamera turbo with yellow banana brakes. it looks like doing 310km/hr even when standing still … it better for that price ! (139.000 eur in Belgium)

IMGP7757

Mario’s projects always do it for me, he’s also quite into Type threes … and knows the weak spots of the type thre buffers. this very early “nos” back was done in a few weeks before the volksworld show, Mario likes to work under pressure he told me !

IMGP7780

and he has a good insurance … as it seems

IMGP7774

some guys from the club had made the trip over … phil, Mike, Roland, Schrek and Xavier were on the loose together with the euro bug in team ! Schrek and Xavier won a top 20 award, so the DAS took 2 trophy’s home (any club did better ?) i felt that the interior of Roland was worth a top 20 award alone … but hey … who am i to judge ?

IMGP7785

keep note of xavier polishing this car … and he even uses it Offroad style BIGTIME !

IMGP7873

i kept having a personality problem all weekend long … DAS member with the 1957 2195cc bigwindow beetle, or the euro bug in promoter with the 1967 baywindow bus, … hmmm … any similarities in years of cars here ?

IMGP7808

the highlight (or one of them) was the sand scorcher … who did not played with one or wanted one when he was a kid ? check out the different tire styles … blackstar style to drive and smoothie/paddled to play in the sand ! congratulations for the BUGBOX team

IMGP7857

IMGP7851

IMGP7863

and on sunday, the rainbow came out of the parking lot next to the esher hall !

IMGP7893

and did i forget to mention this mad creation of ballzy ? a Golf ? … yes … but with a type three pan … ballzy, you did an awesome job on that car, and i really liked the idea of a golf winning a top 20 trophy this year ! the brazilia next to it made it a really nice couple of show cars … the t2d crew is offffff the scale creating these nice projects !!!

keep posted for more volksworld madness later on !
 

type three news from CSP !

Eine neue Version der CSP PYTHON Auspuffanlage entwickeln wir gerade speziell für den VW Typ-3. Die beengten Platzverhältnisse erforderten von uns eine völlig neue Konzeption der Anlage, denn die Beibehaltung des typischen PYTHON Kollektors und abgestimmte Rohrlängen unter Einhaltung der Zündfolge standen im Lastenheft an oberster Stelle. Wir haben uns lange Gedanken gemacht und viel Zeit investiert, um Ihnen in Kürze eine optimale Lösung für den Typ-3 anbieten zu können – perfekt bis ins Detail und in gewohnter CSP Qualität.

Geplant ist, die neue Python Auspuffanlage für den Typ 3 auf der Volksworld Show in England erstmals der Öffentlichkeit zu präsentieren.

Wir möchten Sie schrittweise über so einen Entwicklungsprozess im Hause CSP informieren.
Der erste Schritt ist natürlich die Idee, der dann die Vermessung an einem entsprechenden Fahrzeug folgt. Ziel ist es, die räumlichen Verhältnisse aufzunehmen und eine virtuelle Entwicklungsumgebung für den PC zu schaffen.

Entsprechende Bilder des Vermessvorgangs können sie heute sehen…

-> shortly translated “order you high performance CSP for type three exhaust here, real soon now”
