Thank you for your interest in becoming involved with VAGKRAFT. As a sponsor of the event, you will expose yourself to a vast number of enthusiasts connected to the Volkswagen and Audi community. As enthusiasts ourselves, our aim is to give the local and international members of the VAG community an opportunity to see the latest and very best of what there is to offer for their cars as well as meet the people behind the products and services. With your support, we will achieve this goal. In return, you will receive exposure through our advertising network and media, and meet face-to-face with those who you're catering to.

VAGKRAFT 2009 STATS

For the third year in a row we were blessed with nice weather and plenty of great cars. 2009 was our best year for attendance of visitors, registrants and sponsors. We attracted enthusiasts, both local and from outside the country, coming out to see what the Canadian flavour of VAG tuning and styling was all about. Once again we featured four successful events: Show Car, Auto Slalom, Dyno, and Sound Off. Each event awarded first, second, and third prizes for achievement. Thanks to the continued support from our sponsors and the enthusiasm of the vw/audi community, the success of the show continues to grow, with more and more people travelling great distances to participate. We also managed to earn ourselves a nice four page feature in the February issue of Performance VW.

Here’s how it added up:
• Over 1700 tickets sold (compared to over 1200 in 2008 and over 800 in 2007)
• 250 cars registered across 4 events (compared to over 230 cars in 2008 and over 150 in 2007)
• Awarded 75 trophies (compared to 40 in both 2007 and 2008) with an additional special trophy for first place winners.
• Support from 32 sponsors/venders including VW of Canada (compared to 30 in 2008 and 24 in 2007)
• Close to 2000 people in attendance over the course of the day (compared to over 1500 in 2008 and 1000 in 2007)

IMPROVEMENTS FOR 2010

The Powerade Centre has been a good home to us the last three years but we have outgrown the space. Last year we turned away over 150 cars at the gate, and ran out of vender booth space. Having had to turn away potential registrants and sponsors due to space limitations has led us to look for a new larger venue. We are proud to announce that this year’s VAGKRAFT will be held at Downsview Park. With over twice the amount of space, we will be able accomodate the continued growth of the show and offer our sponsors more of a show experience. Here’s what you can expect:

• An anticipated 35% increase in participants and visitors this year.
• In addition to our unique europlate trophies, we will award a special trophy for first place winners, people's choice, and best of show.
• Continued use of a traditional roller dyno which has proven to be very efficient, allowing us to fit a large number of cars in during the course of the day.
• More promotional material is in the works for this year's show, with more prizes for the give away.
• Continued use of our advertising media, exposing you to both the local and international scene.
• *new* Updated website with e-store, blog, and monthly sponsor spotlights.
• *new* VAGKRAFT scavenger hunt, designed to bring the public into your shops.
• *in the works* Potential VAGKRAFT pre-party GTG Saturday before the show.
• *new* 5th event: Burnout Competition.
• *new* Larger booth space for sponsors/venders at every sponsorship level.
• *new* Larger Auto Slalom course.
• *new* VAGKRAFT Calendar.
• *new* Sponsor/vender badges for easier show entry.

The Vagkraft Team hope that you will come out and show your continued support as we take the event to the next level this year.
