EuroFest 2009: "The car can be easy to love"

In the territory of Crocus Expo August 8 and 9 a festival EuroFest, which was attended by owners of cars of European brands. Representatives of various clubs and owners simply evropeek talked, looked at the workout best drifters in Moscow, as well as watching the coloring and coating cars film. This is the second EuroFest, last year it was held during the show Arena Drive. In 2008, next door to him was located Japfest, but this summer festival had to be separated. Although the lack of Japanese in the audience did not - beside Eurofest on a special track workouts were drifters before the final stage of the Championship "Formula Drift" and the final (third) stage of dzhimkane. And there, as usual, the vast majority of cars of Japanese origin. This year EuroFest teamed with KT-production, they have the same goal - to make good arrangements for motorists. In Moscow, carried a lot of avtoeventov, and those wishing to visit them quite a lot. But, as explained by Victor "Short" Korotkov, festival organizer, not enough to bring people together in one place, we must also provide them with a pleasant leisure. On the first day of Eurofest due to strong wind beginning of the entertainment had to be moved one hour later. And the audience was not very much - probably a rest after the Autoexotics ", so the festival's program was a little easier. Show yourself and look at the other came mostly from the brands Volkswagen: from retro - "Zhukov" and a few Corrado until recently emerged on the Russian market Golf VI GTI. The abundance of "folk" of German cars is because Victor is already three years in a row suits Volkswagen-fest. VW Corrado club members eagerly told of their cars. To the attention of the press and the motorists they had used for several years in the "Autoexotics. Corrado model was produced from 1988 to 1995, during which time the assembly line went off a little over 90,000 copies. According to approximate estimates, in Moscow there are about 20 such machines, and not all of them on the go. The guys spend a rather big money to their cars, many of whom had noted the 20 th birthday, looked no worse than new cars. Owners of Audi TT came with a partner - a company engaged in covering cars color film. For clarity, pride of place occupied two coupe - on the door of one was a golden film, depicting the solar sphere, and the other was completely plastered the latest film by 3D Carbon. This service is not cheap: about 80 thousand rubles, and that the discount! Work took two days and a few square meters of film. Cover the hood, roof and trunk lid, such as Mazda3 sedan will cost about 30,000 rubles. According to Sergei, the owner of a carboxylic »Audi TT, the company cooperates with leading German firm to produce the film, and not all of the materials they give a guarantee, as this brand new technology. Therefore, children look for friends among the donors who are willing to experiment with their car. One such experiment was realized in front of the audience - the master film coated carbon hood of the car. Motorist Sergey Shmelev gave up his Volkswagen Golf IV at the mercy of artists specializing in graffiti. His "purple baby", who had lighted on entertainment sites thanks to the bright colors and inscriptions «Glamour Zae * al», was the original coloring, which Sergey will ride a few days. And one of his colleagues in the shop - the representative of the club «Vedro c boltami Moscow», arrived on a bright orange VW Golf II, from under the hood of which was stuck a stuffed fox. Fans of radio-controlled cars were kept a bit aloof - they are painted on the asphalt track for drift, and using the remote allowed RC-model into a skid. Someone who, while they should not worry too much about the place of gathering - there are mini-site can be anywhere. Permanent place of gathering of owners of such toys - about one of the beds in front of the main building of Moscow State University. Afford these games can be a fully grown money - the cost of RC-model starts from 30 thousand rubles. Cheap versions run on batteries, while more serious "feed" this gasoline. Unfortunately, the exhibition "Sport Motor Tuning", scheduled for last weekend was canceled. So EuroFest became a kind of consolation for those who planned to look at interesting cars. For spectators entrance was free, and participants were paid 300 rubles for a place on the site. You can register it in advance on the festival site and on-site events. At the end of 2009 is EuroFest award in several categories - the best car show, best interior, best exterior, best wheels, best sound, etc. Anyone, regardless of the type of drive, could try their hand at dzhimkane held on the sports highway by neighborhood. Prices there are also quite democratic. Also from the stands could watch the workouts drifters who strenuously preparing for the final round of the Championship "Formula Drift" this season, which will be held on August 15-16. Victor "Short" Korotkov said: "People like to communicate with their own kind. There are many related clubs, for example, fans of Opel Corsa, Astra, and they all pile ... We gather them together so they can meet, make new friends, club partners share common interests. This year was very difficult for mass events, we take a small amount of money from members to discourage rental site. And basically it's all done at his own expense, for the sake of ideas. We conduct qualitative EVENT - continued Victor, who came to try to show a high level. In Europe, for example, year-round host to many shows, competitions, motorists will come there with their families. But they have a different mentality and, yes, expensive tickets, they can afford. EuroFest allows you to show your car, tell us about it and get new ideas from the neighboring projects. Our festival focuses on that machine - it is not only a means of transportation, it can be restored, zatyuningovat and just love. " Text: Olga Zabelkina. Photos: Olga Zabelkina.
