Default Mosaic W.R. attempt. Somebody's going to be disapointed!


The Largest Car Mosaic - Thank You Subaru - Ryugasaki Airfield, 7th March 2009 | RallyBuzz


They're trying for the world record with 300 cars.

Someone want to email them? Or shall we just laugh our asses off when they find out?

Have just tried google translate.

It still makes no sense though.

This seems to say that they have asked GWR to add a new category? Larget car logo\image?

I saw this story a couple of days ago on the Rallybuzz website. I actually followed the link to the website and sent an E-mail to the contact address (in English and in Japanese); but I've yet to receive a reply.

I actually felt kind of bad for them if they're going for a record. The Rallybuzz site mentions getting the Guinness book of records involved; you can just imagine them turning up on the day: "300 cars? When are the other 800 arriving?"

It would seem, to me reading the translations, that they are trying for a world record mosaic of a manufacturers logo using cars.

Whole different kettle o' fish to spelling out someones name.

Just read the rallybuzz link, think they're gonna struggle on a record.

Would be interesting to see, if it was done in Japanese text. Not that I would understand it anyway.

Seems strange they have a link to the McRAE mosaic flag on the report?

Cheeky scamps

Good luck to them and i have no doubt with the dedication of the Subaru fans in Japan that they have the capability to break our record set last year

Great cause they are supporting
