Das Volks is always a great show. I think the dragracing is back this year on the friday night.
Would be nice to see some BC folks representing this year. B)

The Shuswap crew would be a tad shy of the half way mark.  From here it's a good 5 hours depending on vehicle and traffic.  Sorry to say that Waldo adn I will not be attending.  Looking forward to seeing pictures though.  Been alot of years since I've been to that show and drag.  Good times back then I'm sure it'll be a blast. :rockon:
