VERY WILD VOLKSWAGEN

■ Brad McBride shows off his Volkswagen pride as he rides out a high-flying wheelstand in his ‘ 63 Volkswagen Type 3 Fastback on a No-Time shakedown pass at Lights Out 12 . Powered by a turbocharged Jetta engine , the EMPI-backed entry certainly stands out in the sea of Foxbody Mustangs and Camaros that typically flood South Georgia for a Duck X Productions event . While he was running in a grudge class and didn ’ t post any times on the scoreboards , McBride has dipped the Volkswagen into the low 5-second range in the eighth mile .
