   NPOC @ Japfest - Saturday 17th May 2008
Castle Combe Circuit

Japfest, one of the biggest meeting events on the Japanese calendar with over 2500 show cars attending and bucket loads of track action. There is never a dull moment. NPOC were out in force again with over 50 cars attending, showing how we as a community are thriving and showing the world how much we love our Primeras.

Traditionally we all meet up at a Little Chef near to Castle Combe circuit and convoy in and this year was no different. With the car park full to capacity and the rest of the service station littered with Primeras it was obvious we were going to have a great day.

Track Action 

The day saw some fantastic track action too with different car clubs getting there turn on the track. There were many very commited track performances which made for a great days viewing. The drifting showcases were also great with lots of tyre smokes and crazy cornering.

The Crashes

Unfortunately not everyone was able to keep it on the grey stuff and the Driftworks Silvia had a front end shunt. In true drifting styleee the Silvia was set to with a sledgehammer and out racing shortly afterwards again!

The Members
It was hard not to keep a smile off of the members faces. Great cars, great company, great track action. What more could anyone want?? Heres the smiley pictures to prove it...

This is also a perfect opportunity for our members to exchange bits and peices previously bought on our forums. Big trades of the day included the 50 HID kits distributed from the group buy to members, sets of wheels and Ross departing with an engine in his boot.

Ladies of the Show

Just to keep the testosterone flowing around the club, we thought we would summarise the ladies present at this years Japfest.

Lastly but not least, a big thank you to all of our club members and their partners and children for making this another fantastically successful show. I'm sure you all enjoyed yourselves as much as we did and thats all down to you, the members, putting in the effort to make it to these meetings with the fantastic spirit that you bring. Let's look forward to the next meet where we will be bigger, better and with hopefully even more enjoyment!
