    TECCWA will probably be running Toyotas in the Park again sometime...

    Out first event will be a cruise ( not a shit 1 going through 50 suburbs and stopping every 5 mins ) , and seeing what numbers turn out we will take it from there and look into a show event .

    Toyota's in the park was great last year , Would love to see that park full to the brim with everything Old and Japanese .

    I have a 1974 TA22 Celica that should fit in with a Japanese Nostalgia event. Look forward to seeing details as they come through.

    There are plans in the calendar for TECCWA's annual Toyota, perhaps Japanese, car show. I'm not sure where things are at just yet as I've been focused on the sporting events. Will need to get the other Committee members and members to work!

    Hills run? I'm down for that. Dicking about in the city waiting for yellow stickers? Not down for that

    Hope to hell this doesn't turn out to be a Rising Sunday repeat. Though, it is a great opportunity for those of us that are doing the right thing to show our enthusiasm, pride in our workmanship, and display the values our community adheres to for the general public to admire.

    I wonder if anyone has claim to the name Rising Sunday?

    We scouting some roads and stops this weekend .

    I thought Rising Sunday was a great event . Had a bit of everything there which sadly included some knobs that, like always ruin it for everyone .

    Please spread the word of this Group between friends and forums , I only have ties to Toyota threads ( toymods , ae86 , rolla.com ) . Would really like a great turnout with depth and variety .

    So does the event still have a Nostalia theme (pre '87)?

    Yes , If certain models fall on to 88,89 but were mostly manufactured pre 87 then I'm alright with it . But please confirm with me before rocking up at the event ....

    We welcome people that are planning to come for a look see and get some pics , if your car is none Nostalgic we kindly ask that you park away from the heard of beasts and if you want to tag along for rolling shoots etc stay near the rear of the stampede of awesomeness.

    sounds good, away from the city sounds good too a bit more of a cruise instead of idiots doing skids around every corner possible and getting everyone yellow stickers from there attention
