I've already booked to for Yakushi @ Whittlebury on the Saturday, but I can still make Go Japan 2024 on the Sunday. I've starved my RX8 of events for 20 years, so put me down. :thumright:

Just wondered why I wasn't on the list for this, but discovered the clash with Yakushi!?
Though - this is the Sunday (day after) and I'm not planning on camping this year...
So - "possible" - please pencil me in and I'll mull it over! :D

Indeed, this year seems to be a nightmare with various events clashing, or falling on the same weekend.

Hope you can make it Sean!

Just checking this is £50.00 for two people to attend - makes it an expensive event! Especially when they are relying on car clubs to provide the turn out to be able to host the event.

Would have thought car clubs would have got a discount? #-o

It sure is expensive! No free entry for other car passengers. Each person has to have a paid ticket unlike JDMCOMBE. :x

Combe actually tried this semi recently then immediately reverted it after backlash from what I understand.

Hi, you are very welcome to attend and bring your car on to the stand. We are, I believe, a very welcoming bunch, so you will have a good day. Condition of car is not important :D

I'll PM you the booking code shortly. When you have registered and paid for your place, post up in here.

The club will, hopefully, be providing some freshly cooked bacon rolls, tea, coffee and cold drinks. As a full member of the club, these are provided free. Non-members are very welcome to make use of the facility, but we do ask for a £5 pp contribution. It's a lot cheaper than the food outlets on site!
