T.A.S.R. Coverage Part One: Best Team

8

Tuners Against Street Racing went off for its third year without a hitch and Stance Is Everything was there to cover the event. Since I took so many photos at the show I am going to break the coverage up into two parts. Part one is an in depth pictorial of the torontomazda3.ca crew  which took home the best  team trophy.

Pre meet shots
The Mazda crew had members from all  around the  GTA so there  were two  initial pre meet spot locations. I was at the west end spot  where we  waited for the east siders before rolling  into the show as a unit.

Having a tent at show is a great way to create shade and memories it was chaos under here.

The show lineup

Since TM3 had over thirty cars the middle area of the show was almost entirely Mazda 3s it made for some nice group shots

  1. Nice pictures! However Joe’s car was not the winner but 2nd place Mazda3. The winner was John’s turbo 3 hatch that was in the row behind us. Between the red and blue cars with the hood up in the over head shot.

  2. Great pictures Dave. Thanks for making my car look awesome. Hopefully it’ll be in better shape for next year’s event!

    We are truly an amazing bunch of people. Yay TM3!

  3. hey my grey sedan ain’t stock 😛 just slowly working on it, exhaust, cai, short shifter and springs so far 😛

    Great pics btw, especially loving the sky shot!
