Hi All

Went to Top Gear Live on Saturday (8:00pm) with a few of my mates & we had a ball! Show was very entertaining (Maybe not worth the high ticket prices they were asking)! Only thing I didn't really like was how scripted the show was...

If anyone else was at the 8:00pm session & heard some tool yell out "Subaru" while they were arguing about Holden vs Ford... That tool was me :P :lol:

Here's a few pictures I took inside then venue (Weren't ment to take any pics during the show... & I'm a good boy :angel: ):

Being a car show, there were quite a number of car stands outside the show. Here's a few happy snaps:

Mano's race Camry:

Holden & Ford race utes:

HSV GTS (Love the colour :D ):
Image

Audi RS6 Wagon (Go Team Wagon!):
Image

Audi R8:
Image

Stig (Just for fun):

Cheers
Matt

my friend just asked me "was it so good that if it's in town again, should i shell out to see it?"
my answer was"i really enjoyed it, but then again i didn't pay for my ticket"
i don't know if his cousin, who drove from melb on sat, went to the 11am sun then drove home will feel like he got good value for money and effort though?

It was a good show & I would gladly go & see it again if they did another world tour... But, like I said for the length of time & the style of content it had, to me it felt more like an $80 sort of show.

Pfft, my seats weren't free! (Although they were a B'day present)... Seats we were in cost like $120 a ticket... The row directly infront of us paid $250 a ticket :P

Yes Mano, that's your rice police car next to it... Wanted to take a photo with that but too many people were around it at the time.

haha nice pics man.

My Person Trainer, went and was able to change a F1 tire, which he was stoked about, being mechanic.

Would love to change a tire and see how quickly I could do it.

Matt, you were luck I was so thirsty or else you would have ended up with a half a gulp size coke down the back of your lovely Club Liberty T-shirt. Yes, I was that close. ;)
