I will be there have got a couple of track sessions booked, as far as I know track time is all sold out.

apac 20 March 2010 09:24 AM

i went last year , and it was pretty boring to be honest, no atmosphere or buzz. Not much to see in the way 'interesting cars'. Expensive entrance fee for what you get. Just my opinion! - before i get flamed lol

Yeh granted it is the same every year but IMO its still the best all jap car show. IMO rallyday at coombe is a better day out, ill be there to..;)

Wont bother then ..

Silver Scooby Sport 20 March 2010 10:36 AM

I'll be there with SIDC..... lt's hope we have some sunshine this year, it was wet and windy on and off last year which did not help to much. From memory this will be number 6 for me I always enjoy Japest :D

I've heard that Rally Day is the one to go to. I went to Japfest with my brother last year and he was gobsmacked by the lack of atmosphere compared to RallyDay

Silver Scooby Sport 20 March 2010 10:43 AM

I don't think you can compare Rallyday against many of the shows it is a completely different animal, one on it's own really. Partly because of the topic and partly due to what seems to appear out of normal peoples garages tucked away in the darkness. The other show with similar content is in Chatsworth House on 5-6th June and that's another cracker :thumb:

fmp 20 March 2010 03:36 PM

i will be there, helping out these guys with thier trade stand:

Automotive inspired Clothing, Apparel & Stickers - Car Culture

Although the atmosphere there isnt as good as some shows, i think with the all day track action, there is always something to watch.

Just sit back and lose a few hours watching people be heroes on track!

Jamz_ 28 April 2010 11:49 PM

I'll be out on track and with the SwiftOwners club... Cant say that its a crap show, I've been going for years now and never found it boring, one of the best shows I go to in the year IMO... suppose its down to who you go with and having a laugh...

nathanstone 30 April 2010 08:14 PM

might as well call it chavfest ;) i went last year for the first time and it was a bit dull. Rallyday is by far the better event, its a real good mix of road examples and classic/current works rally cars and rally stars. Not much in the form of proper motorsport cars or good drivers at japfest; Just like having a massive track day in my opinion and for some reason it cost more than rally day!? each to their own i guess!

richie001 30 April 2010 08:16 PM

I'm Going.

Matt78 30 April 2010 08:26 PM

I'll probably be there!

mervil 30 April 2010 08:30 PM
