oh goody!! I can picture it now, a line of teenage enthusiasts with comments like: "Hey mister! How fast does this one go? Has it got a turbo? Bet my Sooby/Commie/Ford'd beat it!!"

What joy!

That'll be me. I kicked a shitload of tyres last year, and I'll be doing it just as much this year. Plus it's always fun heading out for some sneaky beers before doing a second lap ;)

I remember the dude last year showing me the PRHT... I sat there and thought to myself I could've put my own roof up faster. Then I thought this sure beats me doing it :P

And don't forget to bring your Mazda Keys!

Several years running they have had a cafe (a serious barista one) next to the stand. All you have to do is flash your keys and choose your brew - all free! :wink:
I've even been collecting the cups - each year there are different zoom-zoom graphics. You get two cups per key set, so you can share the tasty beverage with a friend!

And since Craig seems to be the only Mazda representative within earshot - thanks a heap! :mrgreen:

PS If we did know (hypothetically :wink: ) what day you were on, maybe we could hypothetically help pass the time with someone who isn't yanking your chain... just a thought

I have 2 sets of keys, so it looks like I'll be buzzing on 4 cups of coffee :D. Last year my bro and I dressed up in suits, and we were taken seriously by the folks at the mercedes stand lol...We'll have to see if it'll work again this year

I could tell you guys some good stories about previous motor shows I've been too, and the cars I've dríven there............................

let's just say that bullshit baffles brains, but that's another story altogether.

Let's hope it's a good one this year.

I'll be going one day during the week when it isn't so crowded.
