ZeppoJeff Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Just wondering if the club is going to be attending JAE 2016 this year. If so has anyone any information etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkwright Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Z club and 300zx club are not having a stand this year due to excessive entry fees. A few members are attending with other displays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 300zx.co.uk still have a booked pitch, but they are not actually using club funds to do anything with it this year. There are a few 300zx members planning on attending themselves and using the pitch that the club booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brimstoneboy Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 dont fancy 4 days of it but wouldnt mind going for the sat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz300 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 As Lexx has said the pitch is there for any Z owner to use and its the same pitch as last year. We had a poll on 300zx.co.uk to see who was going and because of the price hike only a few might of went the rest were not happy with the price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d95gas Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 After doing JAE for the last 12yrs or so, this year will be our last one as a club stand. John has got to greedy..... large increase in entry fees, lowering attendance of any traders, IMHO JAE is going to die off before not too long. 4 days of sat in a field with no traders and very little entertainment. My daughter is the trade manager and really struggling to get traders to attend again due to increase of fees......real shame as we have had some cracking shows over the years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grundy Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 It's £10 a day... where's the problem? Most shows this year have costed £15-£35 for one day entry ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smc1992 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I parked on the stand last year but will be going with my friends this year on our own patch I think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veilside z Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 I went one year just for the day though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS8055 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Alternative? Bit more of a drive, but it's got traders, entertainment, a circuit, DJs playing into the night.... www.reisbrennen.de I'm taking my 350Z, so is my mate here and we've got about 15 other JDM cars in our convoy so far.

Looking at the list of announced traders this it would seem your daughter is doing a great job. I cannot wait - been every year since 2008 As Grundy says, at a little over £10 per day including camping/facilities it's hardly breaking the bank. Our club don't tend to get involved with the competitions and such but never find a shortage of things to get up to Where are other Zed owners this year? We are in Wangan (W22) just behind the traders. Come by say hello Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 yea this will be my last one, the price, location and what on offer doesn't warrant it for me anymore wicksteed was a much better venue in comparison last year it felt so spread it out it look like hardly anyone turned up in some areas, there is literally nothing car showy to do. it's family fun day drawn out over 4 days and if i recall Newark site isnt very well maintained grass wasn't cut last year so was like parking in a jungle for some stands, toilet and shower facility are crap at Newark the price has nearly doubled compared with 2-3 years back and nothing new is on the table, and some of the staff on facebook just being pig ignorant with the feedback and trying to justify it rather than fixing it.

kayjay0_7 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 I'm going to be on the mk4 Supra stand this year, think I'm going to be a little out of place there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-G- Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Have to make more effort to get the 380 down to some of these shows next year - only managed 2 in Scotland this year due to work commitments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattross1313 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 I'm going to be on the mk4 Supra stand this year, think I'm going to be a little out of place there Never a bad thing. Atleast there you will stand out and get views as opposed to being lost in a sea of the same car. Much like we did on the MR2 stand We're on stand W22 mate, pop by if you get a mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d95gas Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Just a final word on JAE 2016. We are heading down there tomorrow around 10ish, aiming to be there for 12 ish, anyone around over the 4 days fancy a chat and a drink, pop over to "NE Japs" we wont be far from the Admin office in that first paddock. If anyone wants to stick there car on the stand and socialise, by all means send a pm over and I will keep an eye on the forum, or just drop by and introduce yourself..... will be good to meet more like minded soles. I will be a black 50 with 370 Rims. See you there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
