2016

When it all started

We appeared publicly as a car club for the first time while attending the Baltic VAG Fest 2016, although we were already friends before this event.

The picture shows our first logo, which has undergone various small changes over time.

2017

First steps in social networks

We started the first posts on social networks. We started posting members' cars at first, but as time went by we started making posts with other interesting car projects in Latvia and in the nearest neighbors.

2018

Many meetings in Latvia and Lithuania

2018 has been one of the most powerful and eventful years. Let's start with the fact that we couldn't figure out what to do at the opening of the season until an invitation came from Lithuania to attend the first Auto Clubs Summer Fest' event. It was a great event, despite the fact that 90% of us did not understand what was being said through the microphone.

The second very important event was the Baltic VAG Fest, where our members won the first 3 places in the lowest car nomination.

2019

Car meets and festivals

We created for ourselves an impressive season opening event in Cēsis with many different activities. And here, for the first time, we began to realize that we can probably organize a bigger event not only for ourselves.

When we bought the club bus

One day we talked that it would be funny if we had our own bus, because many of us parked our cars on the jackstand this year and then all the members could go to the events. A few weeks later we bought ourselves a bus and all the problems that come with it.

2021

When all the fun stopped

In 2021, due to COVID, there were very few car events of any size, so we didn't visit much. Many of us started major changes to our vehicles and met on the ZOOM platform.

2022

When you have to start all over again

The beginning of 2022 was similar to the previous year, when there were few events, because few dared to take the risk of making an event and attending it, not knowing what would happen with the restrictions. But at the end of the season, we could all meet at the great and family car event - V-muiza show-off, which some of the members helped to organize.

2023

First Low Happens Fest

In a coincidence of many different, unrelated circumstances, we teamed up with Black Unicorn, with whom we decided to create the first Low Happens festival, which we had been dreaming about for several years. Thanks to friends and supporters who believed in our idea, we realized a great festival in chill and grill style.

In the first year, the festival featured 86 unique vehicles and was attended by more than 250 people.

2024

Second Low Happens Fest

Armed with the previous year's experience and positive feedback, the 2024 festival managed to be more qualitative, with more sponsors and activities for visitors.
The festival featured 204 unique cars and was attended by 553 people.
