Unitronic Chipped made the long trek to Southern Worthersee in 2010 and put together this sweet little clip about what it’s all about!

Orangeball 2010 – The Show

It’s time for the meat and potatoes of what everyone’s been waiting for, pictures of Waterfest 2010.

Thousands of people and cars poured into Raceway Park for the two day event.  Everything from old school Sciroccos and MK1 Rabbits to newer Porsche and Audi models made their way to the show grounds.

The big shops brought out their masterpieces including this R8 Twin Turbo, however every shop was out and about promoting their brands and trying to grab the visitor’s attentions.

Waterfest is jam packed with activities like a dyno booth and a drag strip.  We were lucky enough to catch the very first drag race of the famous big turbo, wide body R32 from JA Tuning.

As you can see, this R32 is no mere show car.  It puts down some serious power to all four wheels and although the owner says he mis-shifted during the race you can see that a quarter mile time of 12.6 seconds is definitely a respectable time.

The festivities wouldn’t be complete without the visitors showcasing their cars.  The picture of the bagged Passat above was taken at the Chili’s after party but as you’ll see from the pictures below, there definitely was a crazy.

Last saturday we made our way to Unitronic’s headquarters in Laval to check out the release of the 2009 edition of the Orangeball Rally DVD.

For those who don’t know, essentially the Orangeball rally is an organized drive to Englishtown, New Jersey which plays host to one of the biggest VW and Audi car shows in the world named ‘Waterfest’. Unitronic is a company that specializes in performance software for Volkswagen group cars so they partner up with Orangeball to provide an unbelievable experience for all involved. The results are filmed and then turned into a fun short-film every year. Check out the promo for the 2008 rally video here. Obviously, we were excited to see the 2009 film and Unitronic’s facilities…

Upon arrival, we were greeted by a thoroughly modern, clean and sleek reception area with a tastefully modified MarkIV R32 Golf staring us in the face. After admiring the R32 for a few more minutes we kept moving into the actual shop component of the facility.

The adjectives modern, clean and sleek were just as applicable here. The attention to detail was apparent from the moment we walked in. It was obvious by the state of their environment that the guys running the place cared greatly about Unitronic as a package not just a solution. After meeting Mike S, one of the owners, that passion became all too clear.

It’s amazing how you can tell from the moment you meet someone whether or not they take pride in what they do, and from the moment I met Mike, I sure could tell he was proud to run Unitronic. Rightfully so. As he gave me an in depth tour of the facility, all the little details; the quality of the furniture, the quality of the lightening, the overall cleanliness and design really add up to make Unitronic stand apart from all other car facilities I’ve ever encountered.

A peak into the engine dyno room summarizes what you can expect from Unitronic:

Everyone then gathered for the main event. Mike gave a short presentation on Unitronic: who they are, where they come from and what they do which was succeeded by Orangeball organizer Rick giving a short introduction to the 2009 film. I won’t give details on the film (ok fine, it was really good), but what I will do is direct you here.

The VW community in Quebec really is amazing. Filled with people I would call ‘just really good guys’. Orangeball and Unitronic are built around it, and it shows. There’s a sense of community and pride that is really rare these days. Everyone in attendance seemed to have a really great night, as did I and the rest of the epic-velocity.com team. There was just one little glitch… I walked away wanting a VW.
