    Rod & Kirsty,

    I tried to get something further away, but unforunately this was the only available 2 bedroom apartment. Anyhoo - will do my best
    Hopefully the bar/conference room thingy is open again and we can use that for shenanigans.


    Thunderbird2 - the event usually has around 40-50 entered cars and a whole bunch of tag-alongs, but usually not all that many from the post 1994 era. Of course it would be AWESOME to see the IS200/altezza guys out there showing that there ARE enthusiasts of the modern Toyotas.
    Dont forget to enter the drags either!!!
    ...... butt scratcher?!

    I would find it hard to believe that would be the case, I mean we are all screwed if that was the rule. What TAXX, RAXX etc.. doesn't have a little rust somewhere, and what car does't have the off small car park scratch or ding(I know mine does...and it'a a JZA80).

    I think what they are worried about are things like whole quater panels dinged in, drivers doors smashed in, or rust that's eaten a hole in the roof. I'll email Grant though and get him here to clarify.

    There is quite a bit of interest from the Supra forums so I dare say there will be quite a few Supras there.... It'll be a bit like Toyofest, if we get enough people with some later model cars there it really brings a whole other aspect to the show. Toyofest was awesome this year cause it had the tuff old school cars, with a good mix of late model cars(Altezzas, Supras, Soarers, MR2's etc..)

    I think it's an effort to prevent me from entering.

    Are there normally many 'modern' ..say, post 1994 cars at this event? What is the approximate size/scale of the event, for those of us who haven't been before?
