Its been a busy weekend for the Rennwagens, with the majority of the membership heading to a local show, VW North West held at Tatton Park, and Richie Moss heading up to York to run his car on the quarter mile.

Best news of the day is that Richie ran a new pb, breaking into the 11’s for the first time with a fantastic 11.97 pass @ 110mph. Unfortunately Rich only got two passes in, and his second one was aborted due to missing second gear, thanks in no small part to pulling his largest wheelie off the line!



Tatton park has been a club staple event since we first started getting together in the late nineties, and again we had a club display this year, with the two clubs race cars of Mark and Jamie Palmer on display along with honorary member Phil Wain’s beautiful Porsche 912. This along with the support vehicles of Jamie & Mark’s tow T4’s and Gaz Priest’s hot VR6 VW Sharan made up a club display, complete with club and Drag Day regalia. The club presence in the display area may have been limited to just a handful of cars, but it was great to see so many members and associates in attendance keeping the club spirit alive and well, easily spotted by their Rennwagen T-shirts! As usual it was a great day out and an excellent time was had by all.
