**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
This year the show will be celebrating over 60 years of the Volkswagen commercial vehicle in Ireland and all variations are welcome, air cooled, water cooled, immaculate and rusty, standard and modified, old and brand new ! That includes campers, minibuses, vans, pick-ups, twin-cabs etc. There will be a new specially designated area for all VW commercials and this promises to be the largest ever such gathering in Ireland.

The iconic split screen VW van came to Ireland in the early 1950s and was assembled here for several years. Generations of Irish people have happy memories of VW commercial vehicles in all their forms. They have served as everything from trusted workhorses to holiday homes on wheels and have a huge following not only in Ireland
but all over the world.

Once again the LCVCC will be making donations to charities from the event proceeds ,so thank you for your continued support : )

It will be held on May 24th & at the same venue as the Limerick VW Show

The racing will take place on a great new downhill tarmac track with a few twists to add "interest" !

Check out some racers from Limerick...in 1978 :)

Not many rules so far !

Entries taken on day 20 euro
There will be a scrutineer who will inspect the "vehicles"...if he says they're not safe or strong enough ,they won't race

Will need to have a solid floor in case a foot gets caught
Will need to have a solid & secure seat.
Should not have any mechanical parts to increase speed (ie no catapults,pedals or jet engines ! )
