Gymkhana Grid Pictures – Mass Appeal Car Show

The recent Gymkhana Grid event organised by Ken Block was split into two parts, the Gymkhana event with all the racing and a big static show organised with the help of Motormavens called Mass Appeal. I have split the pictures into two parts, this part for the static show and this part here for the Racing. You can also watch some videos of the event here.

The name of the static show obviously means they tried to make it appeal to as many people as possible so it wasn’t just all cars about stanced cars or hot rods, or retro, or new it had a bit of everything and that means there are plenty of pics of some very different cars to drool over for those of us stuck in slightly less sunnier places!

I think I will mostly let the pictures do the talking for this…
