Larry's Off Road Center Nationals 2017
Filter ByA mainstay in the Southwest Ohio Volkswagen crowd, Larry's Off Road Center has been hosting the yearly Nationals at Kil-Kare.
Beautiful weather brought quite the crowd for 2017. Larry's annual Nationals hosts a large swap meet, car & buggy show, and the drag racing main event.
Spotted at the car show - A rare Audi-Powered, 24-volt, 4-wheel-drive VW Type 183, known as the Volkswagen Iltis, and the 'Europa Jeep'.
VW Beetles are a popular base car to modify into hot-rods and dune buggies with a wide variety of kits and bodies available.
Wheelie fun is had with many VW-powered vehicles getting time to play on Kil-Kare's 1/8th mile dragstrip.
Alex Curry, a Dune Buggy Warehouse sponsored driver out of Fairfield, Ohio, brought his Pro Stock Ghia, aptly named 'My College Fund'.
As the day heats up, drag racers from all over the country bring their air-cooled cars out to compete. Above - Jason Poynter warming his tires.
