schaeffer 2021You folks better sit down and buckle up if you expect to get to the end of this post. The VW Nationals #7....where do I begin. Holy friggen cow. I know for some established shows and promotors like Farmington they are used to this....but not I! Cars and people just kept coming and coming....ending with 862 spectators, 65 show cars and a bunch of vendors. But 104....that is where I will hang my hat. 104 VW tech cards sold for racing is incredible. I was so busy during the day parking cars, teching cars, solving issues, handing out trophies and trying to race...I really didn't sink in the day of!

It starts with guys like Paul Kiernan and KP Tuned .Com who was the big Kahuna sponsor and Scott Sayers of Deutschwurx the presenting sponsor. Without these corner stones I would not have even thought about putting on an event. Add in all the other sponsors and we were on our way.

I had the easy part...promote it! The pieces were there and all I had to do was beat the drum.

Rain toyed with us all day and gave us some downtime, but everyone did great racing. No oil downs, no crashes...but a whole lot of wheel stands and fast cars.

Thank you to Cecil Affleck and company for taking care of the show car area. It is good to know I can go take care of other stuff and the show car area is NOT a disaster.

My mom and sister for selling t-shirts, counting show votes and holding down the home base all day.

My wife and kids for coming along on "vacation" and my wife for making most of the race trophies. Other promotors like Scott Sain and Kathy Jacobs Sevwa . We all talk to each other and even sponsor each other's events/series.

The team of people who helped me thrash on my own car so I could get it to the track. Only made 1 pass but learned a lot and now its time to refine the package and get competitive. Making 1 pass was my choice, I just drove it off the trailer.

Thank you to Thomas McCracken and Dave Fisher for bringing White Lightning out to display. I will reserve you a spot any day!

All of the winners like Chris Schaefer, Clint Woolard, Adam Dwayne Dalton, Brad Robertson, Jesse Farquhar, Jonathan Abrams ,Paolo Santos,

I know this post is more scattered than a FWD axle on the starting line but....

Let's get it on for 2022!!!
