You have to go digging on the KH website - http://motorsport-events.knockhill.com/ ... p-car-show Hence why I did not see it before, or I would have tried to organise something. I will speak to the events manager at the weekend (when I'm there for SLS) and tell them I/we didn't even know it was happening.

Ah, so it's not actual 'japfest' this year then - it's a jap car event that knockhill are running under their own steam/branding, then.

I think its the same as it has always been. It was never associated with JAPFest, they might have stopped using that name since it might have been confused with the events in England?

Oh I see...
I thought it genuinely was the same event!

Why don't we try organising a meet at Knockhill on the same weekend as the SLS? Some even have track time available and we could have all the Ludes on the track v my S2000

The SLS double header on the 25th & 26th of July will be a big one. Lots of single day entrants coming as those rounds will be televised.

good idea

will it cost more to get in because it is televised

but im up for meeting up there and im sure a few others will be
track time may just be too expensive for me.....

Cool, let's do it then

I know at the last round the track was ~£60. No doubt that will be bumped up for the cameras

We don't have to go on the track, or we could whore ourselves out and charge for passenger laps to fund it

There is no track time for the public that weekend
