Default rennsport festival - aus

last weekend saw the debut of the aus rennsport festival at sydney motorsport park (aka eastern creek).
big turnout, beautiful weather smack in between a week's worth of rain.
event revolved around sydney round of carrera cup and gt3 cup challenge, and included a program of concours, historics, regularities and racing.

some pics, more to come later on. hope you enjoy!

I was there and it was a great event

Great range of cars and lots of excitement

A shame Porsche didn't really have a lot of shirts and promotional materials I think they didn't really get how successful the event would be

Great photos and they show it's not always just the cars that are interesting. Good to also see some familiar (ie Australian) number plates.

Even the police are representing with a Panamera!

Thanks Jim
TESTED's aesthetics are complete and the mechanicals near done for now too
can't wait to get back on the track
I agree Porsche were not prepared for the success it was a great weekend
Weather was perfect too
Not as much bling and rare cars as Laguna Seca last year but on a per capita basis we did well I think
