Traditionally the last of the VW shows held at Santa Pod, which is the largest and drag strip in the UK and regularly hold host to events from the RWYB (Run What You Brung) days, right up to the European Championship of drag racing, as well as a few VW shows here and there, notably Bug Jam and the bridesmaid to it all, VW Action.
VW Action was the event we decided to attend last week in our trust Swedish workhorse, the Swede and although it is by size and attendance the smaller of the two shows at Santa Pod in the VW scene, it was still a decent show with a wide array of cars, both classic and modern, ratty or pristine, slammed and narrowed, or stocking out with it's cock out, all audiences were covered. Even the boring T4's had there own little stranglehold on the event.
My outrageous claim for 2015 is that I seriously think Lennon, when he is ready to come out of his camera shy shell, will dominate, or at least have a good run at some shows next year.
Also, we thought we'd stop off for a few photo's in Olney village with the Swede, which I have included for you, along with event photo's!

My favourite note about the VW scene these days. VAG is a perfectly acceptable word. I like vag. All hail VAG (Volkswagen/Audi Group).
