Hey guys :)

You may have noticed Toyota had a competition running on Facebook via a game called Social Network Racer.

Well the top prize was an all expenses paid trip to Japan to see the unveiling of the FT86 at the Tokyo Motor Show and to see Motoracing at Fuji Speedway...

Well i've just been told that I won the competition :)

I fly out to Japan on Friday 25th Nov and come back on Thursday 1st Dec.

Im totally speechless right now :)

:happyanim:

Nerfie - It was pure chance that i had a couple of weeks off between changing jobs, so i had the time to play the game solid until i was at the top of the leader board! lol

ft86cbx 11-11-2011 08:51 AM

:w00t: Nice one!

Any chance of fitting me in the suitcase being as I was the one that posted the original article? ;)

Gardus@Supersprint 11-11-2011 08:52 AM

That's great!!

keiri 11-11-2011 08:57 AM

Congratulations Leeky! Hurray for the GT4 owners having one of their own at the unveiling. Take a ton of pictures mate!

Oh, if possible...could you pick up an official Toyota TMS brochure for the FT-86? I know they'll have some available and I'd love to have one. I'll gladly pay for post from the UK to the States.

Grats sexy polarbear thing you!

Lol Avoid the red district!

Remember to bow! Don't make fun of us Japanese about how short we are! Or how our hairs are outrageous! Have fun! And congraaaaaats!

Bring me back a green tea kit kat bar. :P

Edit: Btw are they letting you bring a friend? Because it looks like you'll be alone. And this is a serious question (I can't go anyways because those are exam/finals week)

I'll be sure to pick up as much stuff as i can :) Including as many brochures as i can possibly fit into a rucksack!:thumbup:

I've also just emailed them back to see if i can take a friend (on the basis they pay for their own flight/accomodation). So hopefully i'll be able to have a travelling companion to share the unveiling of the car with :)

Snoopyalien24 11-11-2011 02:32 PM
