Ian Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Is anyone else going this year? Is there enough interest to maybe get a stand there? Japfest is the UK’s longest running circuit-based event for all Japanese performance cars. With a mix of thrilling track action, huge show car displays, a busy retail area and a fantastic setting at Castle Combe Racing Circuit, no other UK car show has the same atmosphere. Castle Combe’s great viewing facilities allow visitors to make the most of the all-day track time and drift demos from the pick of Europe’s professional level drifters. Its at Castle Combe in Chippenham, J18 of the M4 Prices are £10 for advance tickets & track time is £30 for a 15minute session http://www.japfest.co.uk/index.html
H5 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 I am considering it, and if there is enough interest am more than happy to help organise it. Only concern is this:- http://www.japanesetuningshow.co.uk/ 2 weeks after is JTS and I don't have a feel for the size of the respective shows. Any ideas?
Andy Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Japfest is brilliant by all accounts. I believe, but am prepared to stand corrected, that JTS is still a relativley new show. A few of my local friends went to Japfest last year and said the track action was epic. 3 stacked motors and some seriously impressive times being put down. I'm def. going to Japfest either with this site or a local site. Def. don't want to miss it this year.
Ian Posted February 22, 2008 Author Posted February 22, 2008 I will definatley be there one way or another but would like to see if we can get enough people together to get a stand for us. There are a lot of us around this area now so we should be able to get a decent amount of cars together hopefully 1.Ian
H5 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Have you got any more details like location, date, price etc. that can be put up and we can add it to the calendar and get some commitment?
H5 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 As a club we could get track time for £25 each (as a dedicated 350Z time on the track, £500 for 20 cars). Looks good. Will check the diary!
H5 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Football season has finished by then. So:- 1.Ian 2. H5
Steve Burns Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Think you will find that the club track sessions are all sold out according to their track time listings if you don't get enough people to warrant a club stand you are all welcome to come on the Z Stand made up of Z Club and 300ZX members same as last year List is now standing at 41 Z/ZXs and 61 people for more info visit http://www.zclub.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=21
H5 Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Thanks Steve, will bear that in mind depending how numbers go.

Chris`I Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 1. Ian 2. H5 3. Andy 4. Trev-the-Rev 5. Chris`I +1 (TBC) Went to this last year and it was very good. Steve kindly gave me a home on the Z stand
steve_b Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Did Japfest 2 years ago with ZClub. Suzy and the team over there are great people and I can recommend it. Nice to see other Zed Cars at same time. Not in a jap car at the moment so not going but everyone else should get it booked.
Ian Posted February 26, 2008 Author Posted February 26, 2008 GTR will be on display & track according to website
Steve Burns Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 come on now guys it is a great day Even if its to late to get track time there is two sessions of your earlier relatives out there on the track and a hell of a lot of Z enthusiasts going
Ian Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 We need to get any club entry in by the end of March but spaces are limited. Shall we say a cut off date of the 10th? Or should we join the other Zeds on the Z Club stand? Anone got any preferences/thoughts?
Chris`I Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 We need to get any club entry in by the end of March but spaces are limited. Shall we say a cut off date of the 10th? Or should we join the other Zeds on the Z Club stand? Anone got any preferences/thoughts? How many people do we need for a stand? Its not looking like Wales run numbers, so we may be best off having a small 350 plot on the larger Zed stand?
Digsy Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 We've always had a great relationship with the Z-Club so could do worse.
