    I didn't takee any and if your looking at it from a mk1 point of view, there wasn't much to see. There are loads over on the MR2OC though. Loads and loads.

    Yep, 3 mk1 MR2s on display and one in the car park (mine). Someone should have been on the track giving it some beans

    I have seen a pic of that somewhere. Someone found it out in the car park.

    Is this yours, Chris?



    I can't help myself. Here's the best shot I have seen taken of mine on the day. It might end up being a screensaver. Look at the shine on this bad boy



    Garrick and Jo's mk1a



    And a mystery mk1 down on TBDevelopments stand.



    And that my friends, was the entire mk1 attendance for this years Japfest. Not many really out of 2500 cars is it.

    Nah, mine is a white F reg t-bar. Lowered on standard wheels, janspeed exhaust. it was parked up behind the "esses" stand. I didn't see either the blue one or that TBD number though so thanks for those!

    That is a cracking photo of yours

    There is no way you'd see our car on track with those fools out there. the crashes were testement to the awful track etiquette (or complete lack of) out there.
    we save track driving to safer trackdays, not hooning round for your 15 mins of fame.
    When we took our out on japfest we were nearlly wiped out when a car overtook us on the inside of quarry as we were turning into the apex - a huge no-no completely breaking the rules as set out in the breifing.
    not putting our car at risk again there.
    We've done loads of trackdays and the japfset sessions are the most dangerous i/we've seen

    Japfest is always a giggle for the amount of chavs attempting to prove how good a driver they are and then enjoying as they are pushing at 120% of their ability and then blatently getting it wrong and crashing. My only complaint is the marshals go and rescue them instead of set them on fire.
