As mentiond i went to Japshow at Santa Pod last weekend so i thought i'd share ,
Now the word's santa pod & sun haven't normally gone together -
but what a scorcher
That has to be the hottest japshow ever !!

What a great show so many top car's and mad motor's .
Didn't manage to get over to the handling course as was to busy watching the strip and trying to get out of the sun .
Anyway some ramdom pic's








Home build Super charged Toyota Supra






Ok not jap but so pretty


Oh saw this and melted
This little silvia raw has an sr20det in it


All the pic's here

Here's my vid's




It was also my 1st time in a rwd on the strip , completly different to my previous fwd & awd car's .
1st run landed a 16.3 which was abit poor but i sliped the clutch to much on the launch and the gear changes were awful .
But with more practice i got down to a 15.1 and i think that there's more in the car just not the driver on the day .

On board my S13


All in a great weekend
Oh and there was No traffic . The only que was to get on the strip :-O

That looks good fun mate. I've never tried a drag strip yet.  :)

I'm partial to the odd Jap, still got a soft spot for the R33 V Spec GTR :)

Colin, you should try it, it's like driving on glue. We have tried a few days at Shakespeare Raceway in the past, great fun if the weather is good - Slightest spot of rain and the shut it down.

Some nice video, Santa Pod is a great day out, nice to sit and watch the action or have a go. It's funny no matter how quick your car feels on the street out on the strip it can feel really slow. Some seriously quick cars there and BTW sounds like you had a passenger on board?
