Pretty good review.

From reading the above and the review I don't think I'd like to go.

The video was interesting, but the pyro displays really put me off a bit, I'd rather just see and listen to the cars. It'd be an experience, but I'm not sure if I'd go.

I went Sat afternoon, the show was good but not great... What really had me annoyed was the 10-15 min of ads at the start... if i wanted to watch ads i could have stayed home instead of spending $120 on a ticket.

Although it was good to see them live and I liked the whole drving simulator how you had to flip the piece of paper showing the different colours to steer the car and yell as loud as you can to make the car go faster hehe that was pretty cool.

And the ferrari's, it's not everyday you get to see a someone ring the neck out of one :D

Yeh it just wasnt what I expected. I was hoping i'd get to see an episode of top gear if that makes sense? Just seemed over scripted...

Including that tosser from TGAU was a big mistake and just wasn't enough stiggy :p

They need to get ken block involved lol.

yeah i gotta agree. would have been great with james may there instead, and the stig wasnt out long enough, and he was also out for the lamest event. ive also heard things about the top gear track lap times being changed for every show? so its all rigged anyway

Yeah, I do think it was a bit overcommercialised...but oh well, I guess they need to make a dollar.

By the way, did anyone else miss out on getting their card for the Cool Wall and the racing simulator? I did, as did a few others who were sitting near me, so we couldn't join in. :(

Welcome to motorshows mate...a lot of booth babes at motorshows are like that. Personally though, while I would've liked to have sat in the GTS (wasn't expecting it though, at the motorshows the HSVs are ALWAYS locked) or one of the Buforis, I got to sit in an FPV GT, so I was happy. :)

Oh mate I was lovin the promo girls! Really felt like buying some Pirelli tyres that day (not really but yeah)! Just the attendent on the Audi one was quite... different to most (although she probably wasnt actually a "promo" girl). Yeah I was just disappointed that there wasn't even a person there at the HSV site... oh well.

I also thought the ads at the start were a bit shite as well but someone has to pay for the thing right???
