First Annual 86 Mega-Meet was a Mega Success!
The Mega-Meet was a huge Success, we had a ton of cars out there, even more people, and the quality of cars was top notch. I was really happy to see so many really well-modded 86's!
I want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came out. This meet wouldn't have been anything special without you. We had guys and girls driving up from Miami, and down from Georgia, and all the way from Mississippi and South Carolina, that's some serious Enthusiast-Commitment right there.
We had a rough count of about 80 cars and over 135 people show up to this event. There was everything from Bone Stock FR-S' to BRZs with Turbo kits, Brembo brakes, Carbon Fiber Driveshafts and Carbon Aero pieces galore. There was over 30 cars that participated in the car show and the caliber of the cars entered made the judging very difficult, the cars that won did so by a very slim margin in points. It was a real pleasure to see so many well modded cars in one spot.
The Food trucks, Music, Camaraderie and the sound of 86's coming and going really set a great tone for the event. I was running around doing so much it felt like the event was over in a couple of hours, Even though we had cars roll in before 10 and leave after 5.
Circuit Motorsports was fortunate enough to have some great sponsors for this event and they provided some truly awesome giveaways.
Some of the top prizes were:
