NZ Performance Car Hardpark

Cars were probably a bit different to what you see at UK events.

My Skoda got a lot of "WTF?!?" looks

I was going to say, "I wasn't aware of any car events in Somerset" today, but then realised which Wellington it was. Nice pics. Some quite different motors there

A few noisy cars!

Makes our car meets look like a board meeting!

Really eclectic mix of cars there Rob Just down the road there's a slammed Chev'y truck for sale, just as the one shown in your pics. It's up for just under 8k but guess you'd need a healthy bank balance to keep it fueled up!

I know you mentioned before that there doesn't appear to be any Fun's in NZ, but are they into trucks and equally modified examples?

Cheers.

I think there are a couple of Funs over here but most modified trucks are either old American stuff that only comes out for shows, Holden/Ford V6/V8 Utes, or Hiluxes

some nice motors

some nice motors

and some not so nice, that Civic with the 4x4 ride and horrendous bodykit, ( pic 75)and that Blubird with louvred back window and huge exhaust pipes post 5, is that a show car ( cough ) or legal in NZ :think:

NZ rules are stricter than UK on most mods. Apart from you don't need a cat. Yet. That's coming soon though, will have to re-fit mine!

That one post 5 is an attempt at Bosozoku style I think

And the Civic was on bags, no idea why they had it up high but it was the target of much ridicule!

Ah I see, still looked like it had been made with cereal boxes on blue peter !

Yep there were some iffy mods there! Lots of enthusiasm though and a good atmosphere.

Until the idiots ruined it doing skids in the car park, police turned up, and I made a swift exit.

That's interesting and nice to know there is some Fun representation out there. Thanks Rob.
