So, Japfest have now publicly announced that this popular event is set for Sat 11th May at it\'s usual venue, the Castle Combe race track in Wiltshire.
We had some fantastic tracktime sessions last year and we are now seeking names of anyone interested in any 15 minute track sessions at this year\'s event. Price not yet announced, but likely to be £20-£30 per session. So if you are up for it, please add your name to the list which Lisa has started - CLICK HERE (http://www.mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/showthread.php?p=847057#post847057)

Might be a bit premature guys, but anyone thought about the Hotel ?
From my records some of us stayed at the Premier Inn at Chippenham.
What are your plans ?
Chris
Good question, and never too early to think about hotels Chris!
I\'ve just checked and rooms at the Premier Inn (Cepen Park, Chippenham) are showing at £52 for the Friday night, room only on the "Saver Rate", as opposed to the "Flexible Rate" of £68.
Question for all, are we happy to go with that? I\'ll go with it; I\'ve had a look at the place a few of us stayed at last year, but the price is much higher and I didn\'t like the dusty carpark :Laugh Hotel and rooms were top-notch though, but not many rooms available anyway this year on the date we need.
So, happy to use this thread to debate hotels. It looks like you and I are OK with the Premier, and I\'m sure Clive and Lisa are, as they normally stay there too. Any other thoughts before we book rooms?
We will would book in at the Premier Inn Chippenham as restuartant on site and cheap and serves the purpose.
OK, I\'ll book into the Premier Inn too :Thumbs-up
Just booked room:Thumbs-up
Premier In sounds good... will consult the rest of the crowd Dre and Yiannis
Booked room :Thumbs-up
Room booked for 2 nights.

Let\'s have another good showing on track of our rotary cars :)
To all those staying at the Premier Inn: What time *roughly* are you hoping to arrive??
Would be nice to meet in the bar/restaurant for dinner/drink.
I\'m hoping to arrive ~6PM
^^ I was just thinking the same thing. I aim to be there about 6pm too. I\'m guessing it will be busy and maybe we need to book a table to eat? But I don\'t know how many are staying at the Cepen or arrival times. If people are able to post up here (and I\'ll put a copy in the other main Japfest thread), I\'ll try to book a suitable table for those who want to eat, as soon as I arrive.
Put the EARLIEST time you want to eat, then I can adjust slightly is you are arriving later to suit the majority.
I want to eat at the Cepen Friday Night list:
1. Ian.Mothersole - 7.00pm is OK
2. Casey - 7.00pm is OK
