First time for me, and I have to say it was awesome.

Great people! A lot of the tracks and other car events could learn from the guys at Santa Pod.. they were brilliant.

We've been blogging about it here http://www.lemons365.co.uk/car-reviews-news-blogs/ if you want to know what it's like.. but i highly recommend going!

I was there with fd:uk. I don't go that often because there's not a lot to do at the Pod unless you like drag racing wink I go to meet up with people. It's the first time I've seen Di run in the black FD too....shows how long it is since I've been!

Same here 0/

I had not been since I was with the Mkiv Supra Club, would have been 2008 I think. Was also there with the FD:UK gang and although many things were as I remember the track action has changed a lot.

I think back in 2008 the Jap car scene was at its peak and you had a lot more cars in each class including the likes of Envy Performance's Supra (think the Black supra that was running 8's is the same car).

However as probedb said I don't tend to go for the track action and its more meeting like minded people smile

JM Imports GTR was pretty impressive too running 8.8's

Ah, Jamie Price's reg number back on a Supra. Has he parted with the GT-R?

I am friends with him on facebook from my Supra days and he said he was there with the Mkiv Supra club so I guess he at least has another Supra, not sure if he still has the GTR.
