Japfest Sunday 30th April 2017 @Silverstone

Anyone know if we need to be in by a certain time? I have a feeling last year there was like a 2 hour club arrival time before general admission. Not seen anything this year

 

The event is open to the public at 10am, so id say any time before 9am will be fine.

I think we have to be parked by 8:30 though i will let others confirm...

 

 

On another note, Given the weather for the last two days looks like it could be another arctic cold show, I think i speak for everyone when i say last year was FREEZING! :cold:

 

On the plus side it should be dry all week

Don't leave it too late to get into the show guys. There are thousands of cars descending on Silverstone Sunday morning.

If you haven't been to a show this big before you will find it can be manic.

All the local roads get jammed up,you need to go through ticket checks on the gate and then find the club stand.

Also the site we have been allocated is very good. It may be grass but it's very close to all the action,pit lane and food!

Iv never been to japfest before.... so does everyone have to be in and parked up by 8 30?? No later???

 

So it's best to be at silverstone for 7 am??? Or 6 am and avoid some queues???

 

And lastly what would happen if... by some sort of horrible disaster.... I was to.... sleep in?? Lol Or get cought up in queues and not arrive till 9 or even 10???

 

Would they not let me park up in the stand??? Or use my tracktime?

 

Cheers guys

We left the hotel (about 10 mins away) last year at 7AM ish to convoy down, queues were building at that time of day and one major crash (think it was the RX7 owners) one parked in the back of another as they got to the back of the queue!

 

Usually the convoy from wherever agrees the times amongst themselves the night before and all aim for that but we always seem to aim around 7am even when it was at Combe and that has queues for miles!!!!

 

Once in the marshals direct you to our allotted area (they are very good) and you meet up with everyone, someone from the club will assist lining the cars up and making us presentable it’s all unofficial I have done it (just make sure Buster isn’t parking you as he is OCD and even gets your wheels aligned the same :lol: )

 

If you are late it will be at the discretion of the marshals they usually say no entry to show stands after a set time, however if you ask nicely and get a helpful guy/girl they will usually sort something, unlike pure static meets cars are moving in the show as they go on and off track etc so they will "bend" the rules sometimes to accommodate you should a disaster occur (try not to sleep in ;) )

 

Driving in and from about 10 plus miles out there is usually a police presence. They are usually very good and take the whole thing in good spirt, they just want to keep traffic flowing and everyone safe, having said that if you drive like a d1ck they WILL pull you and most likely throw the book at you as an example to others, and to be fair with that many cars and people about you can sort off see their point and I for one don’t want someone slamming into my motor because they need to prove that they can drift on a roundabout in a huge queue of traffic.

 

Have fun all, drive safe and see you all Sunday.

Last year I left my house at 6 and made it onto the stand at 8:15. Even though someone had driven into the back of a truck (RX7 or Supra. Can't remember ). But I still made it in. Might have been one of the last on though

Just a thought .. if everyone who has track time added it on here we could keep an eye out for some Z action on track and also see if anyone's booked into the same session :)

Probably a daft question but are there any facilities available to allow people to wash and clean their cars.

 

Don't think I'm gonna get a chance to do it from now till Sunday

 

 

Pretty sure they have outside taps near the toilets (cold only) - bring your own bucket - most will have quick detailer to wipe over the cars on arrival Andy James and Humpy will have a full detailing kit tyre shine and numerous clothes in the boot the only difference is Humpy's will be in a bag that it takes 2 strong men to lift and Andy's will be organised in alphabetical order or size of bottle in his meticulously arranged boot.

 

Before anyone says That's harsh ask either of them if I'm lying :p

 

 

:lol:

 

:lol:

 

 

O so looking forwards to the weekend :thumbs:

 

The banter starts here :)
