QLD Celica club meetings??

[MIN728]

Ok, so things are coming along slowly but surely on my 28 build.. a big shout out to any queensland toymodders that are around brisbane, is there any celica groups around that maybe catch up for meetings ect? Looking for some more motivation to finish the celica and figured maybe talking to some like minded celica nuts might give me the kick in the bum I need.. Haha.. if not maybe we should get a group of us together, surely there is a bunch of us here in QLD that could meet up and drool over each others cars..

Cheers Dan

1st Tuesday of the month - out front of SouthSide Toyota Service Garage - be prepared for low numbers - as the activity in this part of toymods suggest, events/participation are thin on the ground ;(

1st Tuesday of the month, hmm sounds good. Why are the numbers so thin?? Surely those who have any toyota they are obsessed with want to meet up and talk old school jap cars? Well count me in for the next meet, what time of day does this usually happen??

Cheers Dan

from 7:30pm onwards

as for numbers: it's a queensland thing, everyone's busy, petrol's too expensive, too far to drive, conflicting interests, lazy, ...

Not quite sure but online communities don't always translate into numbers on the ground. Having lots of online activity across many forums also clouds and dilutes turnouts. However, some cruise/drives have been popular (Garrad and Dana's classic celica drives have had good turn-outs).

That makes sense, well im going to make the effort next month. See you there.

[thechuckster]

i think the trick is getting people to actually do stuff (and i'm just as guilty) as opposed to just talking it

[MIN728]

Haha.. yeah im guilty of the same.. why do what you need to do today, when you can do it tomorrow.. lol.

Where in Brisbane are you?

Im at annerley, just south of the city.. so im keen to revive these southside toyota meets
Would be good to catch up with some like minded celica/toyota nuts! I have alot of car mates that have built vw's and holdens ect, they all are pretty impressed with my build but none of them really get how sweet it will be when its finished.. anyways.. catch you all at the next meet.
Cheers Dan

Bit too far for me, i'm just a stones throw from Lakeside and I hate the city traffic.

[thechuckster]

hi scott - yep, things have died down. A lot of folks have distractions other than cars these days.

I'll be there at the next tuesday meeting - is a slightly easier drive for me now (down the range, stay on ipswich road for 1.25 hrs, turn right @ jaycar then 2nd left and then park)

[scottsta22]

Charles you're a legend

I'm way too slack to have that much enthusiasum, especially after looking after my 4 little distractions all day

[ra_28]

As soon as i'm back in brisbane again i'll be attending the meetings to keep numbers up plus the people who attended are nice people and great to talk to. First meeting back will be October.

Plus i drive from Ipswich so thats a 45 mn trip for me also.
