  4. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 7th ANNUAL VIKING VOLKSFEST– Bugs head north! 21st-23rd September 2012, York Raceway, UK - The 7th annual Viking Volksfest, the north’s fastest growing VW event moves to its new home at York Raceway for 2012. The relocation of the Viking Volksfest to “the North’s dragstrip” will allow the three day festival to pack even more entertainment, fun and now racing action into 3 days than ever before over the weekend of 21st-23rd Sept. The festival stage will be the focal point of two evenings of entertainment with music from The Karma Heart, The Pepper Hearts, The Sex Pistols Experience, Fireball and Mark Simpson & Oz playing the music of Paul Weller & The Jam – unplugged. The dragstrip will be the hub of the automotive action with some of the quickest VW’s in the country running in competition on the ¼ mile and the longstanding rivalry between American muscle cars and air-cooled VW’s playing out over the weekend as they come head to head on track. As well as the VW action on the strip, York Raceway’s championship drag racing classes will be racing hard in the final rounds of their championship series for 2012 and just confirmed is the addition of demonstration runs on the strip by “Rocket” Ronnie Picardo in his “Wheelie Split” split window VW pickup. There’ll be the usual high quality Viking Volksfest Show’n’Shine but the track schedule also allows plenty of opportunity for VW “run what you brung” sessions throughout the weekend, so make sure you have your driving licence and a helmet (some loan helmets may be available) if you’d like to run your car on the ¼ mile. York Raceway is the only dragstrip in the UK that has integrated 0-60 timing into its TSI timing system, so if you choose to run your car on the track not only will you receive a ¼ mile time and speed and all the usual increments but you will also be able to see how long it takes you to hit that all-important 60mph milestone. Throughout the weekend there will be monster truck car crushing action with Big Pete, Europe’s biggest monster truck, and Grim Reaper a thoroughbred amongst competitive racing monster trucks. As if these two can’t inflict enough damage the 3000hp, twin engined monster tank Armageddon will be ripping and pulverising everything beneath its tracks. Other attractions include face-painting for kids of all ages, circus skills and water zorbs plus all the usual trade stands. Chris Murty (on behalf of York Raceway) said “Volkswagens have always played an important part in both our championship racing and run what you brung at York Raceway so we are looking forward to welcoming Viking Volksfest and some of the coolest, most beautiful and quickest Beetles, Buses, Karmann Ghias, Golfs, Caddys and other VW’s, air-cooled or not, to the track for what is going to be one of our biggest events”.
