Campervan drag racing at BugJam 2008

For those of you VW inclined, you'll no doubt already have heard of the now infamous VW fest that is the annual BugJam . Traditionally an event for VW Beetles, it now encompasses all sorts of VW vehicles, and thankfully for us, campers in particular.  The show attracts a youthful crowd of revellers keen to soak up the prolific quantities of fun and entertainment available on site, from sparkling concours shows to evening comedy stand ups on the big stage, it's quite a weekend!

 We thought you'd like this photo from a previous event, which includes a 'Run wot ya brung' section of the weekends racing. You literally turn up, and race a quarter mile in your own vehicle. Now that must some adrenalin rushing around this camper's veins. 

Thought you'd seen everything? BugJam 2008

 

Another camper based spectacle will be the World renowned car designer and customiser, Andy Saunders with a Campervan Chop. The Turner-prize nominated artist aims to set a new record for building the World’s lowest VW Camper, live at Bug Jam 22. Details here.

The event is at Santa Pod Raceway -  18th/19th/20th July 2008.
