Dont bother! spent $34 entry fee for me and the missus and it was terrible, saw about 30 cars in the car park and that was it. THe advertising and the promotion of the event was poor.

TO the organisers of this event (who i have met before and will still continue to reserve my judgement), you should feel ashamed charging people $17 entry and not too mention the fee for people to put their cars in the show, besides a couple of ads on the radio this was not promoted well nor was there enough cars or events to justify the price.

For the shops who have paid for advertising space, unless if tomorrow it at least 400x busier how it was today I would be asking for a refund due to lack of contractal obligations being met.

I am not one to rant and rave and you are more than welcome to go through my 1000+ posts to see wheather i have or not in the past, for those of you who know me it is out of character to be harping on but the show was an embarrasement to the car scene. Sundays generally do get busier but with the lack of...... EVERYTHING I wish the organisers the best of luck for tomorrow.

I hope i have given sufficient reasons as to how dissapointed I am, coming from being in the scene for the past 10+ years due to my brother aswell, I am easily recognising this as the worst show I have been to.

Ruccis RX7 is absolutely beautiful and has done a great job of that, all in all there was about 5 standout cars all of whom I have seen in the car shows for the past 3 plus years. there are some great up and commers there aswell. If i counted correctly probably would have seen about 40 cars there in TOTAL! I would see more talent in freo or Scarborough.

Sorry for the negative feedback but it must be given as it was a very sad day for me and for the import industry if events that useed to be as big as PAS are done in a last minute tacky approach to get as much money in the organisers pockets from punters and car lovers there will no longer be a car scene at all. /end rant

on a lighter note was good seeing some of the boys though, Jash, Tj, Rucci, great seein yas again!

i would have to disagree with the rx7 i found it foolish.

to me only an idiot would have a tv built into the bonnet of the car so personally to me it was a complete waste of what could have been a very nice rx 7

sorry but in first post i should have mentioned the drifters had a display as well.

and the chosen few display i was most unimpressed with .allowing cars with yellow stickers on them to enter doesnt show their club in a good image

Its an award winning show car, what did you expect? P.S the owner is not an idiot, but a long time supporter of the extreme show car scene in Perth. Surely you dont expect a 700hp stock looking GTR to win major awards do you?

Its a modified car show, therefore usually the most modified car there is what attracts attention and wins the awards as seen over east in pretty much all of their Autosalon events. I too would prefer a tough looking street car but they will never be major award winners.

This event was absolutely sh*thouse, to the organisers, dont bother with it next year if the bar isnt going to be raised. I thought the only good thing from the show was the SilviaWA cars, some nice rides there, and of course [LE RX7], good to see an extreme show car on the scene in Perth again.

On the Chosen Few stand? Yeah, looked OK, though a black carbon bonnet would look much better. either that or a black paint job with the white carbon bonnet :)

Its a mates car from work....he's always looking for feedback on it....well, actually I always just give him feedback on it like it or not :)

Just quietly I reckon it looks pretty good...one of the best 33 GTS-Ts in Perth for sure.....although I never tell him that :huh:

I really liked the body styling (kit/bobtail wing etc), just not a fan of the colour of the bonnet. Good to see a R33 there, was the only 1 I think, which must be a first for an import orientated car show. there were a couple of Imports101 R32 GTRs there, with the bonnet down and no spec sheets unfortunately.

My 32 & Drift WA were there too! :)

I was dissapointed, especially after the effort i put in to get my car there in time. And they were ringing around to get more cars to enter -FREE- (free entry?! While most of us paid $70 to enter) because they didn't have enough cars! I feel sorry for anyone who had to pay to get in or entered their car :)

And what's with changing the judging rules because "one car (deservingly) would have won the awards for that class" when most of the other winners who got one trophy, got up to something like 5 more?!

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
