IMPORT EURASIA WILD WOOD, NJ    July 27, 2002


When Eurasia released a date for their next show in Wildwood I had to check my yahoo map to find its geographic location.   Far down the shore is what it displayed, about an hour past Atlantic City.  We at Dv1 are always up for a good trip so we set out Saturday afternoon to attend the show.  Once we arrived, we checked out the cool surroundings such as the beach, boardwalk, vendor stands and amusement rides a little up the boardwalk and the huge convention center.  Wow, we should have left New York earlier and brought along our surfboards and bathe suites, well no surfboards, but its a thought after viewing the clear blue waters.  Oh well, next time we can come more prepared and perhaps for the weekend.

Usually at these car shows, once you pay and go inside you are not allowed to leave and then come back in, but Eurasia had a system where you could come and go though out the day to enjoy the other things Wildwood had to offer.   Eurasia, the people thank you.  Once inside we saw a lot of familiar faces, Gene of Hyperteknocraft, Carlos Sarmento of CL Models had a booth setup for all models who wish to broaden their exposure.  Carlos link:  CLmodels.com

There were a couple of TT Supra present.   Winning Best Performance Concept was Rich Eager owner of this red 94 TT Supra.

Winning Best Import Concept Auto was Tony Santos 97 TT Supra with a GT300 wide body kit from Japan in which his Supra is both show and fully race ready with a 11sec quarter mile slip proven to be the fastest show car in the country.  We took a few pics of his Supra while Tony was departing from the parking lot....  show/ race/ street every mans dream!

The Verside MRS spider own by Eddie Taxiera is a show stopper.  Eddie won 2nd place in the Toyota Division.   I would love to see his baby turbocharged!

The serious KAOS AE86 Corolla is owned by Danny.  It's power plant is a 1.8 3TC engine modified with wiseco pistons, schneder camshaft 308, CM stage 3 clutch, 45 DCOE dual webbers, MSD Ignition plus a 125hp shot of NOS with a best time to date 12.0.  The body kit is custom and the engine was done by Joelo's Racing in Paterson NJ.  You can read and find out more about this blazing Corolla at:  Savageimports.com

Things were just warming up because Eurasia had a small talent show going asking anyone with a talent to come up stage and do their thing.  Wow, what fun!!!  These guys were rapping, break dancing and singing.  The girls did their thing....HOT!

I managed to talk my partner Lloyd, AKA reggae artist Lloyd D. Stiff to grace the stage.  Known for his fast man Jamaican chant lyrics, he was not understood by everyone, but the dance hall vibe was out with a blazing performance.

Another wide body kit MR2 in the making.   www.pasutoracing.com

Winning best 4 Door Division was Adi with his 2003 Toyota Corolla.  Although his car is a year ahead he done plenty of custom mods that was done by him.

Winning 1st place in the Toyota Division was Paul Cotangco with his turbocharged 2000 Toyota Celica.  Lean, Clean and Mean.......Keep up the good work Paul, you are representing strong for the 2K Celica's out there.
