well it depends on the marketing... and how much interest is generated...
I'd like to see at least 100 cars (i'm going to market it to local clubs and possibly diversify it and get the skyline and supra club involved and possibly even commodores for a bit of rivalry... hahaha) turnout is not guarranteed...

dates might have to be moved. Just got to negotiate with the local car club because their show and shine was scheduled for 3 weeks after the date we set. If we can tie 'em together it'd be great...
Cheers Daniel

Plenty of accommodation around.
Guys I have my first quote back on trophies... It doesn't sound right, but for 22 of the following (the trophy on the far left) is apparently $65 including engraving... Let me know what you think...
