What is the ANSM?
In 2006 the Queensland Supra Club decided to attempt a long weekend cruise to Coffs Harbour to spice up our events calendar for the year.
As excitement built we invited along some of our friends from NSW and ACT and before we knew it we had 30 people together drinking, laughing and having a heap of fun - plus 15 odd Supra's.
There was so much enthusiasm towards the weekend that everyone wanted to do it again, so in 2007 we ran the event again - this time at Port Macquarie and our attendance nearly doubled with 50 people and 30 Supra's.
The event was originally called COOFFS, due to a spelling mistake on a promotional glass we found in Coffs Harbour, but after the success of the 2nd year we renamed the event to the Australian National Supra Meet and vowed to continue the tradition each year, slowly growing the event piece by piece.
The ANSM is not a car show, it is a social meet for Supra owners, their friends and partners.
Events
As can be expected, somewhere in the midst of the first ANSM (Coffs Harbour, 2006) some rivalry sprung out between QLD and NSW and we've tried to harness this fun by arranging activities which allow us a little interstate competition.
In 2008 we will be introducing an ANSM trophy - to be awarded to the Club with the overall winning score in ANSM activities.
