Adelaide Toyoshow 2007

thanks Gav (i got the unmodifieds encouragement award)

in all honesty, is an encouragement award a compliment or an insult? It kind feels like the judges are saying; "mate, this car could be so much more. Get cracking!"

Anyway, I had a nice enough time. Was the first time I'd entered in a car show so I was preoccupied enough with that. Agreed there could have been more entertainment. A dyno slot, some games, Nitro RC cars?, raffle, shit like that.

Anyway, it was cool to meet some of the local toyota owners and just hang out a bit. Cheers to everyone that organised it.

I would never class them as "rare"... They are "not common" beacuse they were to stupidly overpriced from the factory!

There were 110 sportivo turbo corollas built, of which 10 were used in mandatory crash testing. I'd call that pretty rare...

Someone really cant read, can they "Gavatron"

Encouragement award for the DYNO.

*sigh*. Does Toymods sell reading glasses?

And to win the ToyoChamp award you had to do well on the cruise (ie finish it), score BIG POINTS in the dyno and do well in the show and shine. That was what was said when the award was being presented.

I fail to see how you can get 'Big Points' in the dyno then need encouragement. And I don't see how 97kw is equal to 'Big Points' when it was less that a 1/3 of the power of the winner.

Looks to me that Gavatron could read quite well, and his point was very valid there "AE35"

So this basically stock Corolla Sportivo Turbo was chosen, as the best at Toyoshow, to represent the South Australian Toyota community at the upcoming Street Machine Show n Shine!!!

So, will she be entering it in Summernats also?

1. It wasnt stock. Do some research. Then maybe your points might be "valid".
2. I believe it was a FEMALE that owns the car "twentyEight".

[twentyEight]

basically stock

99.99% of people on this forum would class a car with an exhaust, upgraded FMIC, aftermarket wheels, and an MP3 player as the only upgrades as basically stock! (I would also like to see a photo of this FMIC, as the factory ones were a hell of alot more than enough for most cars)

As for the sex of the owner, that is fixed!

What is themods list on the Corolla so we can lay this one to rest?

[MWP]

FFS, dont you guys read.
To be Toyochamp you HAD TO participate in all 3 events.
Yes, other cars/people were more deserving of the award by they didnt show for the Cruise and/or Dyno.

Out of the people that did do all 3, her car was obviously the best.

There should be nothing more to say!

[Gavatron]

Maybe they should have given the Aurion the ToyoChamp award. It went on the cruise, it went to the dyno day (and pulled more power than the Sportivo) and it was at the show and shine. Plus being a new car it would have to have been the cleanest car there.

INSTANT WINNER!

Ha ha thats funny but actually could be true nonetheless when you think about it.
There was only 17 cars that did all 3 events IIRC

PM Soulsearcher and ask her. I'm sure she would happily rattle off the mods of her pride and joy.

[PlacentaJuan]

[AE35]

But I'll bet you $10 of intarwebz money
