i thought it was exspensive the first time i went in 2009 mate , but it's worth every peenny bud !

i like to go to see all the great cars and track action , and u can get a few ideas for ur own car which u can use and get to meet new people it's amazing , u should go buddy ur love it there i did

[SCOOBYOLS46]

EVERYONE BE CAREFULLY MIND AS THERE GENERALLY A FEW UNNMARKED PIG CARS TO CATCH PEOPLE SPEEDING RIGHT OUTSIDE THE ENTRANCE

[M444GY]

not been for a few years but its a good show if its not pissing down with rain , as scoobyols46 said above be careful on the roads outside

i went to lyden hill today to the bhp show and there were 2 unmarked skodas patrolling the bypass pulling peeps over

queues can get very long so you want to get there early.
IIRC there are about 3,000 cars on display and over 10,000 visitors so its a pretty big show.

[Rich 300]

Meant to be the biggest jap car show in Europe

[cjquicksilver]

It should be on for 2 days as there's not enough time to see it all properly in one day and watch track action :-(

[Matt2732]

Been in the past ,good show, much better than the ones at Pod. Trouble is would cost a fortune in fuel these days!

[AWG]

Mags were your ears burning, I was there with Tim from ESC and we were dicussing the top service RTS provides. Could of met up mate!

[scooblet]

Im going up in the proton.

[Anger]

I'm hoping my car will be finished in time, but it's not looking to good at the moment, will be in the Legacy if it isn't

[scoobygaz1]

Weathers looking good. Hope the exit is better than last year 2 hours to get out one entrance/exit

[Alan Jeffery]

Check out the new AlcaTek ECU and Toucan on our stand!

What are you having done?

[slash920]

is a good show i go most years i was only there two weeks ago, for the action day. they hold alot of shows throughout the year.

[scoobydog63]

After last years parking organising, I wouldn't go again. Over two hours just to get out the car park. They were happy to have plenty of staff sorting the parking going in so they could get your money but there was one guy waving traffic out if the car park towards the end of the day. Just a joke.

Totally stripped interior, I only started respraying the interior Saturday, still need to put it back together

Oh and it's being remapped Friday for more performance changes

[AWG]

Interior respray? Or should I not ask!

Be interested to hear how you get on after the map! Good luck

[Anger]

Caged, two bucket seats and Harnesses for the interior now

I'm on a stand in the main paddock now after Japfest phoned me this afternoon
