WITH SOME OF AUSTRALIA'S MOST ESTEEMED CAR BUILDERS SET TO DEBUT CARS, THIS YEAR'S MEGUIAR'S MOTOREX IS SET TO BE A CRACKER

RETURN OF THE KINGS

MEGUIAR'S MotorEx, one of the Aussie car show calendar's biggest gigs, will return to the Melbourne Showgrounds on May 4-5.

Last issue, we revealed that no less than Jim and Mike Ring of Ringbrothers will be attending the event to meet, greet and hand out some great awards. Normally, having such esteemed guests in attendance would be all that we can talk about, but this MotorEx is going to be anything but normal, with some big Aussie names set to debut cars at the event.

For starters, Pat's Pro Restos, Rides By Kam and Southern Rod & Custom all have new cars ready to rock, alongside some iconic names from the golden age of street machining, including Ron Barclay, Phil Rillotta and Troy Hillier!

DIRTY STUFF

THIS is now the age of the overlord: our friendly Big Brother who watches all that we do and corrects our wayward ways. I'm talking about the technology that has invaded our new vehicles. Robots now virtually control how we drive, often forcibly fixing our minor mistakes. And that could possibly kill you if you are not fully awake to what these robots can do!
