Christoph Wick: Remember Viva

I don't know what to say. Darn, Christoph, that Viva Las Vegas 2010 video is a stunner!

Roadrunner's Paradise & Race 61: Photo Sneak Preview

Do I really need to say I want that Mercedes Benz Adenauer 300 Hot Rod? What a bad*ss built — it'll be gorgeous once it's finished!

Just click on one of the images above to start a Flickr slideshow. A full "Roadrunner's Paradise & Race 61" article will follow asap.

Tuning World Bodensee 2010

Just a few shots taken with my cell phone. Tuning World Bodensee = a lot of very clean Veedubs. I like.

Check this article from my autobild.de-colleague Andreas Rogotzki for better pictures.

Radical Rusty Nightmare Bug

Once a year Hannover evolves into some kind of Mecca for the whole aircooled world. Everbody who is anybody pilgrimages to north Germany to visit the "Mai Käfer Treffen". This year especially one car seemed to shine out: The Rusty Rod. I don't get it - what's so special about this slidly modified Cal Look Herbie? Hmm? Why are all airkult blogs full of it?

No. I'm just kidding. Damn, you guys kick *ss. I love this bad*ss Veedub Zombie! Great piece of work.

Make sure you don't miss the "making-of".

Operation Desert Storm

We just published our "General Tire Mint 400" report. Including videos and tons of pictures. Get ready for some dirt sports!
