Jdmst Meet In Calamvale Tonight. - So who's going?  

Looks like the start of the meet was pretty blurry, can anyone confirm/deny?

Hi my names Asia, and I'm a car enthusiast

In honesty I have no beef with anyone in the import or muscle as I've had friends on both sides of the fence, though general observation suggest that the import crowd are younger and tend to not be as mature which gets them into trouble with the law more often then not.

But I can understand why the JDMST meets are what they are and the way the organizers wish to protect them.

In the early 00's the import scene was huge and we where free to cruise, Sunnybank Market Square was a busy spot every Thursday night where you could expect a good 200 - 300 cars gather in the surrounding car parks at 9pm without fail. Then around this time the internet was becoming far more available to everyone and more people talked about the meet and more people came, obviously shit got out of hand and then shop owners where getting cops / security to kick us out.

The meet spot then moved to the McDonalds across the road at Sunnybank Plaza; same thing ...

Then down the road to Pinelands shopping centre; same thing ...

In the space of about 4 - 5 years they had moved spots and all of them had been shutdown as unlike the muscle car meet spots Harry's, Ferry Rd and Munchies where the crowds can abide by the rules and not get kicked out the imports really didn't have much place to go before they where shown the door. Also around this time police where targeting imports / hoons more actively as they started to understand the types of cars being bought into the country and ACA / TTN started ranting about hoons on the TV.

So a handful of import owners decided to gather at random locations on the South and West sides by word of mouth screening those who came along; the initial group was around 5 - 10 cars one of the original group members will correct me on this and from their it grew; by word of mouth. This was around 2007 as I still had my Civic track / daily but fast forward 4 years and they now have meets as big as those I attended 10 years ago, which is an astonishing feet for an organized import meet given law enforcement these days

So I understand what the JDMST people have done, if you want to have a big meet; just like a big party you have to screen your guests. I believe they are not being 'elitist' but trying to sift between the good eggs and the bad as having open meets is a long dead thing of the past for import / P platers. Unfortunately the posting of meet photography on open forums is advertisement and makes the meets an open invite to those that they haven't screened.

So I wish the JDMST organizers well in providing a safe meeting spot for import owners to congregate where they need not fear the prosecution of the law provided they abide by the rules as this was something I took for granted when starting off in the scene in a time where the rules where far, far, far more lenient.

This is my 2 cents

I've got 122.04 cubic inches of DOOM mother fucker!

Good video in a few places...dunno why it kept going in and out of focus.

Having said that, if someone does a skid at the upcoming OPEN CHR meet/cruise and because it's also been posted here, that person is going to be from Boost as well ?

Yes, no matter how many forums it is posted on, they will always be from boost.....
