Choice Gear: DriverGear Spring/Summer Collection

The weather is warming, flowers are blooming, cars are finally wearing their summer wheels. It can only mean one thing: spring has sprung. And with the rising  temperatures comes a new collection of gear from Volkswagen’s DriverGear collection. As you’d expect, the collection features lighter clothes, and ways to keep the sun off your head, but it also features products to help you get outside and celebrate the nice weather.

R Whisker T-Shirt

Volkswagen’s most powerful production Golf to date—until next week when we get a good look at the GTI Clubsport S—only alerts passers by to its potency with tiny details, like the R whisker and a unique blue. This t-shirt features both, so celebrate the Golf R and look good doing it with the R Whisker T-Shirt.

Boho Tank

Volkswagen’s tribal pattern is so subtle and good looking that you could easily miss the nod to VW. Perfect for festival season, of the musical or automotive variety, this jade green tank top, features a crocheted upper back and hi-lo hem. Blend in at Bonnarroo or stand out at you local VW show.

Brookstone Bluetooth Speaker

This speaker connects wirelessly to your phone, so you can take it anywhere. It’s twisted design is so handsome, you might just want to leave it in your living room, though. It has an operating distance of up to 30 feet and can be used as a speakerphone. It has a built in lithium battery that’s good for 5 hours of playback.

Children’s VW Camper Play Tent

Lastly, there’s something for kids. This tent is designed to look like the iconic Type 2 camber bus. It assembles quickly and it’s 51” long by 21” wide by 25.5” high. It’s fire retardant and waterproof, so it’s perfect for a backyard camping trip this summer. It’s so cool parents may end up wishing DriverGear made a bigger one.

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
