The newest Car and Driver has an article on automotive events this year and Syncro Fest is mentioned (they are smitten with the name Syncro de Mayo) and the illustration accompanying the article features a Vanagon at the top of the page, top of the heap, so to speak.

So the website is now saying registration is open and on page 2 of the website there looks like there is a link that starts a download. This completes on my phone, but when I go to open it it says "Parse Error".
I hope Facebook is not the only way to register because I deleted my Facebook a while ago!

You're probably just reaching last year's registration link, which is no longer available. AFAIK, reg isn't open yet.

Hi Volks, I know everyone is quite eager to sign up for SyncroFest. Please bear with us. We have the website ready to go but we are having some 11th hour issues with the event insurance. We've been using the same company for 10 years now and they usually rubber stamp the policy. We submitted our renewal 6 weeks ago and they now getting back to us asking for more information on the event. It may not be a problem but we can not put on the event without insurance so we are not going to open registration until we get this squared away. Please stay tuned......

OK Volks, Last call for SyncroFest. We're going to close registration tomorrow night. If you're sitting on the fence now is the time to get off your butt and get signed up. See you all there!

Does anyone know if the awesome fella (can't recall his name) who was replacing windshields last year is around or coming again? I thought I found him on this board and PM'd but no luck - anybody know who that was or if he's coming again? Thank you and safe travels getting there.
