As if one uber cool car wasn't enough, John recently acquired a US import Oval window bug which in his words 'is to be more of a racer'. Bearing in mind his current car is running 12's and the high quality of Johns work this will be one to watch!

Gaz Thompson's VolksWorld featured 67, did run a 1776 until recently but thats made way for a full house stroker that will be hitting the strip at Big Bang 2008.
Heres my car (Jamie Palmer aka Kaferboy), its a 54 Oval with 2276cc motor.
Paul 'Poe' Beardmore's 12 second 64 - this is currently in Pauls garage in lots of pieces awaiting a new engine & box 'cos Paul's gone turbo!
Here's Dave Wains cool 66 looker. The bug sports a 2276cc stomper out back. In the background you can just see Alan 'Donge' Donlon's late 50's bug (details soon!).
John Walkletts awesome 63 Bug making a 12 second strip pass. Car runs a 2387 efi motor, built by John (as are many engines in the club!). A ride in this car convinced me I needed a quick bug, its simpy awesome and beautifully built.
Already having built a 1776cc motor with a homebrewed turbo set up for his bus which resulted in a USB entry with a 17.0 qtr mile, but having the itch to go still faster Kev is currently building a monster DTA/Turbocharged/2332cc motor to power him to some REALLY good times.
