I was there with a bunch of friends who go every year to the same campsite inside the circuit. I did see one R32GTR and a new R35 GTR was parked just down from us but I didn't meet the owner. I didn't take my car this year but last year when I had the R33GTS, I took it and Bob's right, the attention you get in a Skyline is really something else. I stopped on the way home for my passenger to get some fags in a small village shop and had a crowd around my car in no time (including the shopkeeper!).

I'd like to take the GTR next year and go with some other club members.
Bob, did you camp on circuit, or stay in a hotel? I think the campsites get booked up very far in advance, so maybe we should find out who's interested in going and get something organised for next year?

Highlight of the weekend for me was the unexpected Starsailor concert on Saturday night. Made a change from getting drunk and watching the race for an hour or so.
