I wouldn't imagine that he has sole possession of show rights at Atco. Atco would have that..   Could it be renamed and circumvented that way?

If I'm wrong or out of line, feel free to scold me!  Not meaning to step on any toes...   =wink=

again UNOFFICIALLY!

He owns the name but by no means owns the rights to have a show. You could book a VW show tommorrow at Atco as long as it's not called Punch Buggy.

The reason Marc has started the Volkswagen Treffen show is to take the place of Punch Buggy. I dont want to speak for the club, but I think going away from this venue (Atco Dragway) is a good idea. From my experiences having to deal with the owner of the drag strip, he is a real pain in the pitoot to deal with. Plus the fact that the club can get a better deal financially through Marcs negotiations with the new track will be a win/win situation for the club.

Hope this helps- unofficially

He came to our BODs meeting and said he will NOT be doing PB anymore. We asked if he would give us the PB name but he is undecided at this time.

   If need be, punchbuggy will fade away,  all the more room for Volkswagen Treffen - which will grow over time..
