Here's what Mitsubishi Club of Australia had to say about the Autosalon.

dimi_108 wrote:Yeah on20's railliart magna was second highest for the FF (front wheel) drive dyno with just under 200kw atw. Running 7psi boost. We were chatting outside for ages about superchargers hehe very funny bloke.

And get this, after the show finished last night (picture around 300 show cars leaving the venue) the cops set up a defect station just outside the main exit gate of the show ground.

How cheap can you get aye??

Half the people were getting defected. So I went in and told all the SAU and other guys still packing up what was going on and everyone ended up camping it out for a few hours in there until the police left.
Damn FTO club where the first ones to scoot out of the venue. We were still rolling up our fake turf and FTO Australia's display was completely packed up and all the cars were outta there in a flash. So they avoided the defect station lol GRRRRR smart asses

He starts off talking about my car here, then goes on to talk about the FTO stand.

My favourite FTO out of your stand was the white with blue race stripes and FTO club lettering. That was an eye catcher.
Howcome the black FTO with the yellow paw prints wasn't at the show?
Your seating area was covered by the massive FTO Australia sign LOL good idea. You guys got to hide behind it. We were out in the open. I fell asleep for 2 hours at our stand then woke up with all the show go'ers looking :mad:

We are rather partial to "Speedy" the white/blue one -even if its only used for racing these days

My black and yellow girl "Artemis"- is a bit too broken

someone used her for "touch parking" so I have to get the dent pulled out - and the bottom of the front spoiler is cracked - which was me coming out of a carpark too fast *sigh* as soon as I get the new front lip sprayed it'll go on and fix that - also replacing the standard rear wing with the spare Type R wing - which also has to be repainted as its the white one from the racecar. (takes a breath and considers the benefit of punctuation!!!)

With a bit of luck my girl will be all fixed and the pair of them may make it to Autosalon Newcastle.

Cheers
Teania & Kaveman

ps- Yes, I name all my cars

The 4WD is called Brutus the Brute or the Truck for short
