JTS@Silverstone with track time

[JackieFan]

Did anyone else go to this?

Slimreaper and I went along, even managed to get three sessions out on track. Ended up blowing his Turbo to manifold gasket though! The show itself wasn't much to write home about but it wasn't bad either. Most of the people there were "normal" as opposed to event's like Trax where it's just a bunch of horny teenage chavs trying to copulate with the stand girls while playing bangin toons from their overweight and underpowered Vauxhall Novas!

All in all a pleasant day out with some very nice machinery to gawp at, plus £20 for 20mins round the National Circuit thrown into the bargain!! I'd go back next year, Have a nose on the SXOC as they had a club stand and there's quite a few comments on there about it, and some photos if you're that bothered.

Dont know if its of any interest to people but my main car was the white Skyline on the auto glym concours stand.

It came 2nd so was not to bad for what is a track car up against show cars.

Looks like a tasty motor .
You`ve obviously put a lot of work into her. I especially like the wheels, they fill the arches out nicely .

No wonder you can't afford to spend the cash on the S12, that GT-R is covered in shinny expensive blingage!

Did you get out on track at all while you were there?

No unfortunately not, i had 2 sessions booked but then got approached to do this concours competetion so had to sell them.

It does have a bit of bling to it but the car is all built to perform well on the track and does many trackdays. I dont like cars which are built just for show, cars are for driving but its a bonus when they look nice at the same time!

That was the best show i have been to i think, will definitely be going back next year.
