We are looking forward to putting on this show at a new venue (for us). This will be a relaxed event to end our 2017 show season. Since we are only one part of a much bigger show, you will have the opportunity to walk the show grounds and view all types of show vehicles - not just VW's. What a way to end the season.

Will the VW group or show be a separate section of this event or will it be mixed in with the other marques?
As a Swap vendor I am curious if there will a VW swap section or mixed in with others?

According to the person that visited the site and talked to the President of the Flemington Speedway Historical Society, the VW show cars will have their own section. Vendors are first come first serve. I'm sure you could get together as a group if you wanted to.

I have to pass these fair grounds to go to just about every other VW event in Jersey, so great location for me; much closer to home for the PA crowd. Now if I just didn't have to work that day...

Gonna try to make this one.
I'll be swapping too if I go so maybe I'll try to coordinate with Nick and a few others.
If there's a show for other makes going on too...maybe this would be a chance to sell the stuff for other brands of cars some of us wind up with from time to time...

in the times i have made this show, it always seems like a large car turnout but don't recall much for the swap area so for the swappers that is a bonus. Also the show part leaves early. i remember getting there late around 1pm one time and show cars were splitting already. But the size of the place is massive and there is loads of parking for spectators. Im thinking of heading up friday and staying at the mother in laws so i can hit the show good and early and leave the ball and chain at her moms that day!

I've been a few years and the sway is hit or miss. Two years ago tiwas spilling outside, and there is tons of room inside. Bring all your other junk to sell, this swap has everything!!

Just out of random curiosity, why is the spectator entrance fee only $5.00 as opposed to $15.00 at the All Air Cooled show? Is the rent for the fairgrounds much less that the Swim and Sport Club?

PS: I can care less what the entrance fee is, as the shows put on by the club are the best!!

Since we are "Guests" of the Flemington Speedway Historical Society, we are not privy to their finances. I do know that they have several corporate sponsors that help defray the cost. As far as the All Air Cooled Gathering, our entrance fee of $15.00 is necessary to cover our expenses and provide the charitable contribution to Jersey Cares.
