Who are we?
WOLFSGART, European inspired automotive event and brand, was developed by true automotive enthusiasts, like you and me. Our passion for classic and modern automobiles is what drives us. As responsible drivers, we come together for a common interest. We live for driving German and European cars and motorcycles. We are the “Roots” of the European automotive community and the foundation of car culture.
Why German and European Cars?
As enthusiasts and gearheads, we are huge fans of all cars and motorcycles, whether Foreign or Domestic, but German engineering is what connects us with the road. There is nothing like driving a well balanced machine, handling “like it’s on rails.” Over the years, European designers have inspired car manufacturers around the world with beautiful, compact, and agile automobiles. These cars have become the model for modern day automobiles.
Anthony Fitzsimmons, founder of Awesomotive, LLC, is the mastermind and creator of Wolfsgart, Vermont’s destination auto show. As a designer, educator, family man, and Foreign car enthusiast, he has been actively participating in the German and European car scene since the mid 90’s.
Anthony grew up on Long Island where he built his first show car, a 1991 Alpine White VW Mk2 GTI in 1996. While he was attending college, he worked at “Metrix, The Parts Warehouse,” the largest European parts importer on the Island. Anthony also developed and managed the largest European car club, “Club Eurobahn” during this time. Anthony taught himself how to work on cars with just a Bentley shop manual and was encouraged by family and friends that were also German and European car enthusiasts. Anthony placed 1st at several well known car shows including H2O International in 1998, Woodstock VW shows, Waterfest 2000, and other auto shows.
His love for the outdoors includes kayaking, hiking, and skiing, and this influenced him to move to the Adirondacks in 2001. Despite the beautiful roads and scenery, he saw a lack of automotive culture in the north country. Attending H2Oi, Waterfest, Autorama in California, Florida aircooled VW shows and outside the US, inspired Anthony to develop Wolfsgart, an event like no other. He has continued to develop events like the Pumpkin Cruise, WagenFest, and, most recently, Nordesee in Lake George, NY. His passion for bringing people together with a common interest and his love for cars fueled the need to create these events in a beautiful setting like Vermont and upstate New York.
