So guys i organised last years end function.i learnt that way more time is needed to put something together,so im starting now.im open to ideas so give me your feedback so its fair and interesting for all.im toying with the idea of having a ''japfest'' with all other jap car clubs.we always see these guys at events etc...so it would be great to share a day with some people that share our passion for all things jap.what do you guys think?

I agree,i'll find out costing involved,i'll line up some sponcers etc...what do you guys think of tarlton drag shoot out? We will also need a graphic wizz to help us with artwork for a flyer that we can print and mail.(driftz nug nug wink wink lol)maybe the durbs and cpt guys can make the trip?we need to make this the biggest event this club has ever seen.anybody have an idea of what the record is for the most sx's together at once in sa?if we get a big venue we need numbers.so lets see what intrest is like.but i'll work my ass of to make this work.

Wow, FJ! That is an awesome idea! We can do drags and drift and gymkhana, what a way for a car club to celebrate year end! C'mon Cape Town and Durbs, you guys must pull thru and we can make this the best event like... EVAR!

Hey toby,no drifting unfortuneatly,ann said its not allowed but gymkhana is.that's always fun.plus its not far out so we should have a great attendance.also thanks for the help with the flyer nivash will get that detail to you as soon as things are cast in stone.hope you guys can make it this year.we will take turns in hosting?maybe next year we can do then mother city?same goes for the durban guys.

Yea i know,its some issue with drifting without proper marshal's etc...those could work but we will need to add in jap fest somewhere on the flyer aswell as the sponcers logo's,date,time and info.but yes those samurai's will be awsome.
