May 13, 2017 - 780Tuners Season Opener

Another late post...what else is new?

Finished 1/3 of my pharmacy licensing exams and after a burger and beer I feel it's appropriate to cover the 780Tuners Season Opener. As the name suggests, it's a car meet to celebrate the start of car season in Edmonton. Despite some rain and wind initially, the weather warmed up quickly and the sun made a few appearances as well. The meet was also well behaved, minus some douchebag banging off the rev limiter in his Pontiac. Photos with some commentary to follow, as usual.

Digging the yellow on the 370Z but that bumper splits opinions

Love the yellow on this FR-S as well

And here's a yellow S2000 to finish it off!

Beautiful FD RX-7 with the appropriate brap noises and vanity plate

Favorite design of the 90's JDM cars, curves are just perfect.

Berry's Varis widebody FR-S made an appearance.

Just your ordinary AE86...until you realize it has a V8 Lexus engine swap

Evo 6's don't get enough love, but this one was a clean example on TE37s

The GC8 STi is my favorite Subaru

A very clean example

Datsun Bluebird

No crowds were harmed by this Mustang thankfully

A line up of GTRs

TT automotive with their slammed Legacy (Side note: the reflections in this photo are insane, you can spot me taking the photo!)

KTHXBY

RJ's Evo X rolling in

Another big winged Evo X

Red on Black STi

I took a ton of photos of this R32. Clean and understated yet malicious looking in black

Love that Nismo ducktail spoiler piece

Sitting pretty

NSeX (yeah overplayed, I know)

Gerick's Rocket Bunny RC350 right before he spent 5 minutes navigating the entrance to the parking lot

Moe's widebody Mustang made it all the way from Calgary

A very serious S2000

Oh wow a 911 Turbo...wait why is a 16 year old driving it...

BMWs and BBS - a match made in heaven

Kai's widebody 3IS and some reflections

Big aero on this murdered out IS-F

TT Automotive also brought out their Carrera 4. Car goals

I'll finish off with this photo of an R32...NISNO? Never heard of them (can't tell if the stick is a joke or a poorly done eBay sticker)

And that's a wrap on the coverage! Hope you all enjoyed the photos and for those people that I actually knew at the season opener (there were very few), thanks for hanging out!

Cheers,

Gary
