Thank you Dave. I will add you and Sally onto the Simply Japanes list when I get the topic started. :icon_thumleft:
Your FB would be a stunning addition to the NEC stand after the respray! Lynne will be taking the lead on organising. I plan to attend for a day (or two), but not with my car on the stand.

:)) That shouldn't be a problem, Jon. It would be good to see you, as it's been a while. There were 3 or 4 Yaris GR's (and a Subaru) on the RX-8 OC stand at Simply Japanese in 2023 (pic below). I'll add you to list when topic is up :icon_thumleft:
Cool.

CLASH OF DATES! :violent1:
Two Japanese themed events are taking place on the Sunday, 7 Sept:
Go Japan at Brands Hatch, and
Japanese Day at Brooklands Museum, Weybridge
Go Japan has been in the calendar for a few years now. It's a good day out, but the Brooklands event is a new one for 2025, so I've decided we should give it a go. It's a great museum, with plenty to see.

Oh dear, it's TapaTalk playing up again................... :( :( :( :(
It might be a while before I can sort it Jon. The last time I did a TapaTalk update, it caused massive issues with the forum, so will have to be very cautious before updating.
No worries.

We are running v5.1.3 of Tapatalk and there is a v5.1.7 available, so I'll work on bulding up some courage to install it ;)
I'm sure it will be fine (a full forum backup first though!!)
Update on Simply Japanese at Beaulieu.
I have emailed the organisers (with my RX-8 OC hat one) to apply for a stand.
Once I have confirmation I will start a topic on here and tickets can be purchased - there is an EARLY BIRD PRICING option open until the end of February (£15 per adult - normal Museum entry is £25.50 in advance), so there should be plenty of time to get these :)
We have a stand confirmed at Simply Japanese :13:
When I get a moment, I will start a separate topic with the details and how to purchase tickets.
Well done Malcolm :great:
Beaulieu on Sunday 20th July 2025
Sadly I might not make this one as I'm due to race at Lydden Hill Race Circuit on Saturday 19th July.
Lydden Hill! I don't think you've been there for a while?
Yep, would be difficult to fit in a trip to Beaulieu the next day though :(
