FT86CLUB Homepage Featured Story

August 5th, Fuji Speedway Japan, 86 festival was happening without owner from US. 5,535 miles away from Fuji Speedway, in LA, Moto (aka MotoP) heard the cries of the owners, he organized US side 86 festival: Scion FR-S Tour of LA Drive presented by Longo Scion. Tour happened from Longo Scion in El Monte CA and traveled Toyota USA Museum, LAX, Mulholland Canyon and back to Longo. Totaling over 80 FR-S, AE86 & BRZ came to join the festival.

7:30AM
Even early in the Sunday morning. Scion FR-S, AE86 and Subaru BRZ showing up.

No one cannot be admitted to the Toyota USA Automobile Museum without registered and have wrist-band and car banner. Ryan & Ai were making sure everyone is registered and signed up.

8:30AM
More owner have start coming.

9:00AM
Guess who join the event? Ryan of Flipside909 join the event with BIG brother of FR-S... Lexus LFA

10:00AM
Moto have called everyone for driver meeting. He made sure there aren't ANY wreckless driving, or careless behavior allowed in this tour. If owner get a ticket, owner will also get an awesome sticker that said "Freaking Really Stupid".

12:15PM
Everyone made it safely to Toyota USA Automobile Museum.

Kenji-san from Cusco and Troy from FiveAD came to join the event.

Scion & FiveAD brought some gift for everyone.

1:00PM
Time for raffle drawing. Wait, is that FiveAD spoiler & HPI Racing FR-S? Congratulation to everyone who won the raffle. As for me? I was busy eating, forgot about the raffle.

1:30PM
Inside Toyota USA Automobile Museum, first thing I see is Scion FR-S concept which first shown at NYIAS. When Jack Hollis said "Freaking Really Sweet!" it totally true, it's freaking really sweet!

Go more inside, there were sports cars lined up some of them which inspire Scion FR-S.

2:30PM
It's time to roll off to Malibu for Mulholland Canyon. Totaling over 80 FR-S, AE86 & BRZ going same direction equal to whole street covered with them.

Leading the charge is of course, fearless leader LFA

4:30PM
Stop & go, stop & go through PCH heading to Malibu, we finally got to Mulhulland Canyon. Beautiful sky, great canyon, great cars... what more to ask?

6:00PM
After driving around LA, we drove back to Longo Scion, food trucks were waiting for us.

?PM
The end of festival, I didn't hear anyone who got "Freaking Really Stupid" sticker or any wrecks, everyone came back safely and had a fun time. I call that a successful event!

& here are more photos I've promised

Edit:
Thanks for you guy's patience on the vid. Yes, I know, I'm not the greatest vid editor... but bare w me.

Are you referring to the 5 axis cubes? They were just foam stress balls.
