Is it a bunch of queuing modified cars with angry drivers?

Nice, thanks for sharing. I was up there with the Bluebird parked on the Jap Riders stand and had a cracking day out. Can't be bothered to convert all the pictures into [pic] formatting, but photos are here

Great editing!

Makes me even more depressed that I couldn't go as I had work. Even with endless negotiating with the boss!
Still got £50 more wages though. Think me may be a petrol head

I saw someone on my FB page complaining they'd been waiting 4 hours! I lol'd when I saw they'd driven down Friday night and stayed at a Hotel close to Castle Combe

Me too! I stayed in swindon and it took me 2.5 hours to go the last 2 miles into the circuit!! A mate who lives 48 miles away set off at 6:15am and did not get in to the show untill 12:15pm!!!!!!

I left Plymouth about 5:30, got to the queue around 8:30 and was in just after 09:00. There was however a traffic jam trying to get out (apparently due to the Police doing noise checks)

You got lucky then getting in that fast!

Going home I left at about 3pm so missed all the traffic but I did see mates of mine still posting on facebook there still in traffic at 7:30pm!!!!

Not very good organisation at all!

No details on that one. No doubt quick but I have to say the wiring on looked somewhat bodged. Apparently used to have some kind of alloy rear deck over it?

I was looking forward to this show but i actually forgot about it and missed it. Kinda glad if thats how long you have to que for.

I saw there is a Japfest 2, is that any good? I'm kind of getting into Jap cars are there any other good Jap shows on this year?

Is that what that little thing with the gullwing doors was? Cool little car! The one parked next to it had "660cc inside" sticker and was on R888 with wide arches! Sounded like it had a blood bike engine in it!

[Cockey]

Boo! No AE86 tofu car!

Coming from south wales, I arrived at 9.00 (traffic outside took half hour to get in) then left at 3.00 and drive straight out.
