The Scots have this bling fest. Only a one day show though. TG would love it.oddshoes wrote:Jimi I do feel for you guys in Scotland as you are so far out of the way and if there was something apart from the highland drive up your neck of the woods that was really worth going I am sure we would

Japshow replacement would be the Silverstone Classic, one more could fill the calendar. Timing is everything though.
I am thinking a modified show of some sort?
Sorry - what I should have said was "a limited number" of events. My point was we won't be successful in doing BHP and JapFest and Silverstone classic and Trax and USC and JTS and JapFest2 and JAE and... and...MR2Jay wrote:I was thinking of 2 events....

This would be good... in fact, doesn't even have to be a RWYB, but that format before or after a one-day show/event sounds good. I dislike camping at the best of times; JapShow involving camping means no showers and thus feeling both tired and dirty all day, plus all the hassle of pitching and packing up a tent just for one night (and then having all that extra weight for the strip too).d-peg wrote:For Santa Pod I would now probably favour a RWYB day format then back to Northampton/Wellingborough for some drinking fun and a hotel.:

I agree - ditch Japshow. As you said earlier mate, timing is everything. USC and Silverstone Classic are only two weeks apart. Imo it has to be one or the other. The latter event is massive: over 90,000 attendees this year compared with 120,000 for the F1 GP. If circuit racing is your thing then go for it.MR2Jay wrote:So, are we agreed then? Next year we don't do Japshow and swap it for Silverstone Classic (I'll speak to Julie) and someone else takes on another show, say USC at the pod or BHP at Rockingham?
