I’m torn between this and the Deutscher Auto Zirkus.
The Zirkus is going to have a Donut Pit and I can drive the track!
I already won first place in my class at Bug-a-Paluza in ‘21 and I’m itching for a legal spot to spin around and see how well all my efforts will perform.
Bug-a-Paluza is a great time though and the swap meet is great! _________________ Volkswagen!

I went 20,21 and 22.
Lots of parts and over 100 cars each time.
It's a big venue.
The campers always have a circle of fun. _________________ Volkswagen!

There's usually over 300 cars. If you don't pre-register, you're not getting your car in the show area. _________________ All he needed was a wheel in his hand and four on the road.
