Calzo21 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I agree with Japfest mainly cos I'm already going and it'd be Awesome! But with Branners and going to Toyota HQ now that'd be cool :D :nana: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calzo21 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Toyota HQ sounds like a great idea , not sure how much there would be to do there though? Well once wer all parked and took mass supra photo shot (as I'm sure all the employees would too) maybe someone could arrange a tour of the place ? Can wait to hear wait Branners says from talking to PR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) Gathering at a services. Or the fast and furious film are horrible suggestions to mark an occasion! Lol Japfest is a bit... I dunno. People go to it anyway. And most there won't give a stuff about the supra being 20. And for people like me who are not really that bothered in the rest of the show isn't it quite pricey for a days entertainment? And parade laps are dull. I can drive slowly around my housing estate I think we could come up with something a bit different and unusual. At a decent enough price if we had to pay for anything to attract people. Toyota hq or factory sounds good. A tour of the factory would be interesting if we can wangle one How about the motor museum in gaydon branners? I went to a joint tigra/puma meet there once with a mate. Quite central and they do meets all the time. And iircc give you a discount on entry. And it's a nice museum. Although full of British rubbish like rovers Edited March 8, 2013 by Guigsy (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 so, Toyota came back with the following 09:51 Toyota UK Hi Mkiv, Yes, we have had a think and could organise to have the car-park here for use. On site you could have a BBQ or a food van. We'll need to confirm what exactly you'd be looking to do / how many people you'd be expecting / how the event or day will play out. If you could give us a few more pointers, that woud be great. Do you also have an idea of a date you'd like to host the event? Many thanks.

R3DG3CKO ROB Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 my mate did that parade at Rockingham, said it was an awesome day but they didn't get the record as the stipulations on what constitutes a convoy were a bit too strict, people kept on bunching up and shooting off iirc, must have been cool though.

Branners Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 So I'm thinking we have a nice subsidised BBQ, perhaps a marquee and maybe even a big projection screen. Not quite sure what Toyota can put on inside, if they can get a JGTC car in that would be amazing so thats what I'm going to suggest. This is the Toyota HQ and car park so I think we would be good for 200+ cars http://goo.gl/maps/oG0Qb I may also talk to Brands, Silvertone, Donno or Thruxton to see how much it is to hire and maybe do the convoy thing.
