Gates open at 4.30pm for competitors and 5pm for spectators with the racing starting at 6pm until 10pm, so if you're racing make sure you get in early, it's not unheard of to be turned away at 6pm because there were too many cars.

My Photobucket ToyoFest09

I was there!!! Good to finally see yours and is1000 in the flesh. :)

After a long week detailing the car after hours - polishing ,painting, shampooing, etc. we arrived about 8 am and had a great day of socialising and checking out some great custom and classic original toyotas.

Only limmited awards at this show and I think all trophies were carefully considered and well deserved.

Brett got best exterior, and I picked up "Street Sleeper".

There was over 90 cars there with some real quality work displayed. Lots of dedicated show cars (which mine is not), and a mix of daily drivers and "works in progress".

Several car clubs were represented, would have been great to have a club display.

I saw a dark colour IS200 leaving with an Altezzaclub sticker on the back, but didnt see anyone from the club all day besides Brett.

The day started as a bit of a nightmare, first bending some of my exhaust on a gutter, and then being directed to park next to IS1000.

It is pretty discouraging to have to park your meagre efforts next to a machine like that. However as the day went on I got alot of very good feedback, and I came away motivated and happy that all the effort was worth it.

Great work guys :)

Only managed to get 1 shot in of yours Matt, battery died ffs.

Awesome job on the engine bay.



Many thanks to Brett for taking time out to talk about his machine.

It could be me if the car has 16 inches stockies on :D
Between 2-3pm

I always forget about these, gotta get to one of them cause no one does it like Toyota nuts lol.
