Amaru Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Well, theres a post in general discussion area thing about this, but thought id post up here to see if anyone is keen. HKS will be bringing their R33 GTR out of retirement to take on the Heat Treatments R32 (now the quickest in the world) in New Zealand on the 17th Feb 2007. Me and Aurora are going to fly over on Friday the 16th and come back on Sunday the 18th. Plane tickets are $189 each way with Air New Zealand and hotel shouldnt cost too much. So who else is interested in coming? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/145401-lets-go-watch-the-hks-drag-gtr/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkon Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 it does sound interesting will let you know, reckon $500 would cover the weekend?

Amaru Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) Probably not since the airfares return are $380 ($189 each way) then you need probably $50 - $100 for accomodation, entry to the drags (no idea on ticket prices, they come out in jan) and food. Id say $650-750 and you should be pretty safe. Also those prices are from Sydney, so if theres enough interest we can all chip in $10 and hire a mini-van for the drive up to and back from Sydney. Come on peoples, who DOESNT want to see the two fastest skylines in the world go head to head?

Bullet32 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Hmmm Sounds like a good excuse for a trip... But would it be worth it to go all that way and have it over in under 8 seconds? Im more of a Circut racing and Drift fan. But Im still interested.

Veilside R33 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I'm officially barred up... I'm barred up knowing that you're barred up.... I've said too much........ Anyway, it's be great fun but my money belongs elsewhere. I'll just wait for the cliff notes to come out. (read: video).

Guest 180Chick Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) I would definitely like to go, but I won't know for sure what I am doing until closer to the day.

low200 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 as cool as that would be, im not keen to spend $700 on 8 secs of entertainment, even high price strippers are cheaper then that...

Shell Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 bloody hell, how cheap are those tickets!! i went and saw the HKS car at willowbank and i'm sure it cost me more than that to fly to QLD!

Amaru Posted December 1, 2006 Author Share Posted December 1, 2006 Yeah I was shocked at the ticket prices too. And you will see the cars out multiple times during the day, not just once... and thus far, every time the HKS car has gone to an international event they dont strictly do drags with it either (those that saw it on the rained out day at willowbank will understand).
