Maybe come out during the Nismo festival, although the weather has been known to be crap that time of the year... TAS is fun, but Mick's seen that all before anyways... !When you've made plans let us know and we'll be happy to help out with booking your hotel, etc. If you want a rental car that's easy to arrange too... I hear they rent R35 GT-R's now - could be a rumour only though mind ![]() Last edited by Miguel - Newera; 5th August 2008 at 08:27 AM. Reason: To add Nismo Festival suggestion |

Smokey 1 - your user name would suit you well here in Tokyo right now. At 9pm this evening 4 of us were sitting with gtrlux intending to chill at a cafe, but we could see steam coming off each other! Just rode home on a bike and arrived with my shirt all wet. Daytime it's a killer outside. Tokyo's a sauna right now...
