Whereas there isn’t a scarcity of stance/modified automotive occasions held in my dwelling nation of Hungary, final month the native scene was handled to the most effective but: IDOLZ.
The occasion not solely attracted a few of the absolute best Hungarian builds but in addition introduced in guests – and automobiles – from overseas, inspiring all that attended.
As you’d count on with a reputation like IDOLZ, the occasion was headlined by a number of hero automobiles. These included the Mapet-Tuning C3 Corvette envisioned by Khyzyl Saleem, the carbon-enriched RWB Porsche 964 ‘Kimera’ owned by Alex from The Infamous Fam, and final however not least, RS Hardcore Germany’s savage 1,500hp Porsche GT3 RS.
A location could make or break an occasion, and on this case, it was positively the previous. There’s one thing so cool about seeing modified automobiles in a basic setting. IDOLZ took that idea and ran with it.
Festetics Citadel in Dég close to Lake Balaton is Hungary’s earliest neoclassical residence. If the principle constructing itself wasn’t spectacular sufficient, the park-like grounds are dwelling to the biggest English backyard within the nation. The juxtaposition between new and outdated was gorgeous.
The occasion was run over two days, with the primary day (Saturday) reserved for exhibitors and media solely. This made taking pictures a breeze. The following day it was opened as much as most people, with an incredible vibe.
As a bonus, I additionally had a possibility to take part in an early-morning non-public photoshoot with the Corvette and 964.
What units Hungary’s modified automotive scene aside from most different nations is that customized modifications are prohibited right here. Anybody can construct a automotive, however getting it authorized for highway use is one thing else altogether. Moreover, Hungarian legal guidelines round automotive modifications are strictly enforced by the police. Unsurprisingly, this was one of many essential subjects of debate over the weekend.
I’ve to congratulate the group behind IDOLZ for placing on a tremendous occasion. After eight years of smaller meets they took the plunge and went all in, and it completely paid off. What was achieved is one thing by no means earlier than completed by anybody in our small nation.
