NGP Challenges You to Guess the Top Speed

New German Performance is taking a MK6 Golf R and a C7 S6 to the Texas Mile and they’re challenging you to guess the cars’ top speeds.

“We have high hopes of laying down some competitive runs that you VW and Audi enthusiasts will be proud of,” they say in a press release, adding that the cars were both built for speed.

A $100 NGP gift certificate will be awarded for each vehicle. They will be selecting the winners at random from those who guessed the top speeds correctly.

To enter, email TexasMile@ngpracing.com with your guess for each vehicle. The deadline for entry is at 12:00 am on April 1.

The Texas Mile runs from April 1-3 in Beeville, Texas where some of the fastest, highest-horsepower cars in the country run down a mile runway, formerly used by the U.S. Navy. The ‘Mile has been run since 2003 and the event now attracts more than 250 competitors and fans from across North America.

You can watch the event live for $25 if you’ll be near Beeville in April, or you can stream it at their website, texasmile.net.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

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.
