Volkswagen Accessories and DriverGear Offer Exclusive Holiday Promo to VWvortex Users

Believe it or not, we’re halfway through December already, with holidays approaching (or already over) at a rate that we’re not quite ready to accept.  In order to assist in the gift-buying process, Volkswagen Accessories and DriverGear have teamed up to offer 20% off on much of their respective catalogs, exclusive to VWvortex users with the promo code VORTEX20.  Check out the full details below-

*20% off excludes Genuine Volkswagen Accessories, VW DriverGear gift cards, eCertificates, and sale items. Cannot be combined with other offers. Other restrictions may apply. Offer expires December 31st, 2015.

Seeing as 20% is nothing to scoff at, we combed through parts.vw.com to find some of the more interesting finds.  Here are just a few of the items we’ve got our eye on.

DriverGear OGIO Plaid Backpack

Once upon a time, we genuinely thought graduating from school meant graduating from backpacks as well.  We’ve since found that this is not the case, as business travel and weekend trips have proven these things to be invaluable.  And since you’ve got to use one, it might as well be a bit more grown-up than that old LL Bean with your initials stitched in.  Featuring space for a 17″ laptop, plaid exterior and a prominent VW logo, DriverGear’s OGIO backpack is guaranteed to be incredibly useful for years to come.

Rear Bumper and Door Cup Paint Protection Film

If there was ever to be an automotive accessory equivalent to socks, this would be it.  Not all that exciting but extremely useful, the film installed on our Project SportWagen’s rear bumper has saved the paint more times than we’d like to admit, making it well worth the $70 price.  Couple that with this 20% discount offer, and it just might be the cheapest insurance you ever use.

MOJOMATS Carpeted Mats- Anthracite with Red Stitching

2015_vw_gti_mojomats_floor_mats

Something that every single GTI should leave the factory with, these MOJOMATS GTI floor mats are just the right amount of flash without being ostentatious.  Simply put, they’re a must-have.

Cargo Net – Anthracite

The more space you’ve got, the more you’ll use.  And when you finally arrive to your destination, only to find that those mountain bike gloves you packed are nowhere to be found, or that one Orange decided to make a break for it after leaving the grocery store, Volkswagen’s Cargo Net suddenly makes all the sense in the world.  At just $90 before discount, it’s a worthy addition to any Volkswagen.

None of those items up your alley?  Check out the full catalog for more gift ideas.

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.

Macau Gets Messy with 16-Car Pileup

The Macau Grand Prix is always good for an accident or two or 16— you may remember Audi’s race ending crash last year —and this year’s event didn’t disappoint. It didn’t take long for things to get messy on the tight road circuit. On the opening lap of the qualifying race a 16-car pileup caused the race to be suspended. Things kicked off when Daniel Juncadella hit a wall on the exit of Police bend, one of the tightest parts of the already tight circuit. The following car of Raffaele Marciello was able to avoid the carnage, but Laurens Vanthoor, who was in the upside-down Audi that ended the race last year, could not avoid Juncadella and together they blocked up the road pretty much completely. “I couldn’t see him [Juncadella] at first. Then I saw the car standing still,” Vanthoor told Motorsport. “I tried to brake but it was just understeering and I couldn’t do anything. There’s room for one car there and you’re blind.” Fourteen more cars would eventually crash into the corner c

The First of its Kind: Integrated Engineering Releases Highly-Anticipated IE450T MK6 Golf R Turbo Kit

After two long years of development, the team at Integrated Engineering has finally announced the release of their IE450T kit for the MK6 Golf R. With their turbo kit bolted on right out of the box, the sport AWD hatch is transformed into a 450bhp monster, with hardly any noticeable increase in spool time. In fact, 435 ft-lbs of torque are achieved at all four wheels, at a mere 3300rpm! By now you are probably asking yourself how this is even possible on a 2.0L engine that made nearly half that power from the factory. By employing true twin-scroll technology into the cast turbo manifold and pairing it with a state-of-the-art BorgWarner EFR turbocharger, IE was able to keep spool time at a minimum and bring the fastest-spooling big turbo setup to the market. “We wanted to offer a kit that would dramatically increase the power output without making the car lose its amazing street-friendly drivability,” mentioned one of the IE engineers. We are told the IE450T leaves the car driving jus
