I just stole this from Southern Worthersee's site, and thought I'd get it up...
The W?rthersee Tour in Reifnitz, Austria is the largest gathering of VAG enthusiasts in the world. For more than two decades, this charming lakeside village has hosted millions of enthusiasts, who come to appreciate the most innovative and trendsetting VWs and Audis in Europe. W?rthersee, as this event is most commonly known, derives its name from the beautiful lake that dominates this popular vacation area.
Our inspiration for Southern W?rthersee is to bring together cars and fans of these beloved marques in a truly authentic European atmosphere.
Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains on the Chattahoochee River, is the quaint Bavarian-themed town of Helen, Georgia. With its striking similarities to the W?rthersee region, we think you will agree, it's a natural location for our stateside tribute to W?rthersee.
So please join us in beautiful Helen, Georgia as we celebrate our enthusiasm for these wonderful cars and the spirit of W?rthersee Tour.

the shows you are comparing are apples and oranges, you cant compare the two to each other.

Really, SoWo is more like a giant VW/Audi hangout, its just a really laid back show.
Schmally
04-22-2010, 01:54 PM
I am hoping to be at SOWO. My buddies parks an RV in Helen Ga. I am hoping to crash there.
the shows you are comparing are apples and oranges, you cant compare the two to each other.
That makes no sense. They are both car shows correct? It's not like comparing apples to oranges, it's more like comparing a small local car show (which is what it is) to a large show like Nopi Nationals (when it was in play). You're termonology is out of context.
Besides I was being more "Tongue-and-cheek" than anything
You're termonology is out of context.
Believe the apples to oranges reference was suggesting that the ALL VW Gathering(apples) to typical car show (oranges) is quite different. Going to one location and seeing varying styles of the same vehicles help give ideas and inspiration plus you know everything there is a car you like. Kind of like when I went to the ALL Ford National Event in Pensacola. It blew away any other show I've been to just because there was other 1000 Fords there with 500+ being mustangs alone. I was in heaven!
SteamHammer
04-22-2010, 04:41 PM
everytime i attend a car show in Columbus, it's always the same cars over and over again...due to it being a local show. plus the quality of cars will be dramatically lower ( not all, but on an average scale ) in a local show than SoWo ( or any large scale show ). it just all depends on what you want to look at and how much fun you want to have. i will be more than likely going to SoWo with the wife and kid. Should be a fun time.
Schmally
04-22-2010, 04:45 PM
local show 25-50 cars maybe apples. Big event several hundred cars oranges... get my point.
Well, as I said before, the original comment was meant "tongue-and-cheek," but I understand where you guys are coming from. BUT, wouldn't it be nice to have a big show like that in Columbus? The more support we get the bigger it will be each year. We aren't just a local club. Holy Rollerz has almost 600 members across the world and 99% + of them are here in the US. We all support each other. Which means that we can have the potential to reach on a huge level for promoting, but this show has to be at least successful enough to break even for this year so we can do it again. Who knows? Maybe by next year we can get enough that the year after that people will start pre registering. Ask Steamhammer, I am chock full of ideas, lol. I am also very passionate and enthusiastic when it comes to things I believe in. I believe that this has the potential to be huge, but as I stated, we need the support. Sure we might have the same cars that you see at every show, but what about next year? lol Okay I'm stepping down off my soap box. sorry for jacking the thread :focus: SOWO does sound like it's gonna be off the hook.

04-22-2010, 06:11 PM
yea but ithink the main reason the say that is cause the euroscene which is wut they all are into is very sluouch and lack luster in columbus no one really owns or show them in the area...thats why i think they choose SOWO over tuner revolution...but either way dean wish i could make it but got early finals the following monday so its a no go :(
