Big Weekend Ahead.

January 15, 2010

Nothing to really update today other than to say that there’s going to be a myriad of shenanigans taking place through-out the country this weekend and we at RC should have evidence of it next week. So keep coming back to check out entries from the following events;

Auckland:

Kumeu Hot Road Show

Japanese Classic Meet

Christchurch:

Multi-Club Meet and Cruise

Invercargill:

CRC200 @ Teretonga

As well as few other updates from other goings on, I’m sure. Next week should be riddled with magical photographs. See you then!

Bring on the classic Jap meet this Saturday!

It’s been a sore spot with me since I’ve had the car. It’s a fibreglass replica spoiler for a Torana GTR-XU1. It doesn’t fit correctly, the attempt at fitment is abysmal and has generated a lot of rust and cracked paint. So today came time to remove it. A task not as easy as one might think. (more…)

Because it’s apparently the best way to generate hits for your blog! Just spam multitudinal images from all over the show! Yeh boi! S I V E R R I D oh wait.

Let us start, then, with a mint-as-all-hell R31 wagon.
