The stuntman Guillaume Faurie wants to be the first in Europe to jump a backflip with his quad.

Of course, the Swiss Car Event is already geared towards power and mass. Lovers of modified vehicles have been meeting here for ten years. Drift specialists vie for the favor of the spectators, and those who want to can even take a ride. One of the free passenger places is with Stephan Riesen, who intends to set a Guinness record in driving on two wheels with his BMW.

30 clubs vie for the most beautiful conversions

A highlight of the event are the low-ride and air-ride vehicles, American and European classic cars and air-cooled types. Trade exhibitors and around 30 Swiss clubs vie for the most beautiful conversions, nicest stands, top bikes and much more. Something for the eye is promised by the Patronne Sexy show, a professional striptease performance that should rather be seen as an elegant artistry presentation. The largest indoor event of its kind also scores points with youngsters with roller and skateboard riders and the daredevil arts of flying quads. Open Saturday from 1 to 8 p.m. and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., admission costs 22 Swiss francs per day for those 12 years and older; the very young get in for free.
