2000 hits and counting.
For our 2000 hit we here at the OSS have decided to post a couple of picture of something almost as beautiful as our 1000 hit model.
36hp challenge get press.
This information was sent over by Burly and we though that i would be good to disseminate it.
From Burly:
"Friends of the Challenge
Just thought I would send you information on two recent publications and a web-link that have posted results and information on our recent 36hp Challenge activities.
As always, VWMA (VolksWagen Magazine Austrailia) has given your efforts a nice write-up in their issue #24, Nov 09 - Jan 10. Thanks Craig for your interest and support.
The attachment above is from Street VW's, a longtime Japanese VW magazine which I know you will not be able to read but which shows the story written about the 36hp Challenge, Mike Manghellis Rabbit pick-up at Bonneville and Jeremy Freedmans fast 208 MPH Golf at the TEXAS Mile. Thanks Dai for sharing the 36hp Challenge and VW land speed racing with our fellow Vdubbers in Japan."

Old text.
We here at the Old Speed Shack spend alot of time searching for, and through, old texts that will give us insight to the realm of VW Vintiage speed. These old writing give us isight into what can and has been done with these little motors. So we though we would share a little bit of history with everyone out there.
