The Bug-In saga started way back on the 20th of October 1968 when the First edition was put on by Vic Wilson on the famous Orange County International Raceway (OCIR) wich sadly closed down on 30th October 1983, and that was the end of the Bug-In Shows aswell. The 31st and last Bug-In there was held on 9th October 1983, this was the last of the longest series ever of uninterupted VW shows ever put on, the Bug-In saga ended with a bang and got its legendary status, today these shows still are the example of what a show should be all over the world.

The Famous Champion Tour, one of the symbols of OCIR and the Bug-In

The Shows were held two times a year one in the spring and one in the fall, the Bug-In quickly grew to be the major show on the West Coast of the United States and each following show saw more bugs and spectators show up! The last one in 1983 counted several 1.000 volkswagens and over 10.000 visitors! a successfull show concept that lasted for 15 years...
