If you are into VWs, drag racing videos like this don’t come along very often. This is the season finale of the Outlaw Turbo drag racing class, from the HotVWs Drag Day race. Going into this event, there was a points championship on the line, and it was close:

#2 – Roger Crawford with 74 pts
#3 – Eric Calabrese with 47 pts
Many thanks to Marty Staggs at M-SpecMotorSports.com for creating this drag racing class, and to all of the sponsors who made it possible.
