Things on DerSubtileVento have been moving pretty slowly as of late, with other projects and issues coming up at work and at home. Now that things are starting to slow down a bit, I’ve been trying to get back into the scene and back up to speed with my car.

As part of those efforts, I’ve [...]

Today I caught on to a discussion in the Waterfest 08 thread talking about the drag racing action from this past weekend.
In the thread and in his blog post, GT R4C3R mentioned that he was fairly unimpressed with the drag racing portion of Waterfest. What he failed to mention was that the fastest car of [...]

I just got back from my first Waterfest and boy was it hot. It must have been 95 degrees with 97% humidity. Either way, it was crazy fun. I cruised to the show with DubsOfQueens, a local group of VW and Audi guys I’ve started hanging out with lately.

Many times I’ve found myself at the local VW dealership drooling over the latest German metal, usually right after seeing a fleet of new VWs out on the road or driving past me, but I’ve yet to bite on a newer model.

A few forum members tipped us off to a huge Porsche & VW show that went down last month in Puerto Rico. On April 27, car enthusiasts from the local AudiVWCrewPR and EuroCrewPR clubs gathered from near and far for what appeared to be the 9th annual event.
We have Radames Torres to thank for all [...]

Primer, an event put on by Yarrow Thorne’s Yarrowsport, has roots all the way back to 2004 when his company opened its doors at their new location in Providence, RI. This year’s event on May 10-11 went off in a fashionable sense with new classes and just as many cars as ever.
One of our forum [...]

NE Dustoff show took place just a few weeks ago on April 27. Mk3Love’s very own Tom Whitaker (thewhitsnpt) was there staffing the show and representing his local club, Ocean State Dubs.
Tom is a moderator on the forum here and was charged with running the gate at the show. Mk3Love sent a shirt and a [...]
