Here are some photos of the stuff outside Acer Arena for TopGear Live 2010. The show was good, lots of free stuff, I would encourage those who have tickets to go a couple of hours early as there's lots of things to see/participate-in/buy outside and in the lobby. (i.e. stunt driving, drag racing on a dyno, slot car races etc..etc..)
The show itself was good, a few good things that just leaves you with 'WOW' and pretty funny stuff too, but it was a bit short. An hour and a half.
1.
2. F1 Slot car racing track around and through a Ferrari F430
3. A Clarion Mazda RX8 Rep car, this thing was so loud, you could hear it over the V8's revving thier engines 20m away and the Harleys doing thier Drag racing.
4. Touring Car slot car track, the detail on these cars was amazing.
5. Classic Bathurst Winners from 1970's to 1992.
6. At the model shop they had there, I found these Delorian Models from Back to the Future Movies 1,2,3!
7. Dick Johnson's Ford Sierra, I remember watching this thing giving the V8's a run for thier money, and winning, several times, until 1992 where cars like this were no longer allowed to race in Bathurst 1000.
8. Brocky's Mobil 1 Commodore! The noise this made going down the straights is hard to forget.
9. Skaife and Richard's Nissan R31 Skyline. The Controversy this caused is what made Bathurst a V8 only race. This won by such a margin it was deemed in a league of it's own that shouldn't be placed next to V8 muscle touring cars. (Just like how the EvoX's always win the Bathurst 12 hour overall across all classes.) This was the last of the Turbo and/or 4WD entrants and Winners to the Bathurst 1000.
10. Pretty Lambo, but bad iPhone camera
11. Very Shiny Audi R8!
12. The new Lotus Evora, I wonder how an EvoX would go against this to be honest.
13. The new Ferrari 612, looks like a hard top version of the California with two more tail lights.
14. Ferrari F430, soft top.
