Hello to everyone
My name is Barry. I am 39 and live on the East Rand. I own and manage a entertainment company. I have had a few beetles over the years. Now I have just got a 1972 beetle 1600, to strip down and rebuild completly.

Hi You All.
I am Hermann. Lived in SA fot 37 years, was big in the VW comunety in Western Transvaal, north West area. Had A Drag Beetle that was one of the quickest beetles of its time. Did a 12.2 at Tarlton on street tyres, and I dont think there was a beetle that has topped my 232Kph on the 800m, also at tarlton.
i am now living in Perth Australia. I have a 1962 Aussie beetle that I race here. First time out at Perth dragstrip, with my turbo engine, I ran a 12.4 on premium unleaded street fuel(low boost).
I have been here for 5 years.
Keep the Beetle flag flying.
Hermann.
