BUG-IN #49
November 7-8, 2026
presented by Flat 4
The BUG-IN is back! After losing Irwindale Raceway at the end of 2024, we did not think we would be putting on another Drag Racing event. But now with Famoso Drag Strip in Bakersfield under new ownership, BUG-IN will be making its return. BUG-IN is a 2-day event opening up Saturday morning. No matter what your VW interest is, BUG-IN has it all. We will have camping Saturday evening, Car Show Sunday morning and a Swap Meet and Racing all weekend long. Our “Manufactures Midway” will have vendors from all the top companies in the industry. You can purchase a weekend pass, or a single day pass for Sunday. Get those VWs ready, we’ll see you this Fall at Famoso!
