As it would of been Japfest today , heres a pic from last year

Breakfast meet today

Ready to roll for the TEC National meet tomorrow

One from the archive Came back to my car to see this going on , ha ha Japfest 2 , Rockingham Raceway , 2010

On a positive note , at least it wasn't a tattoo.. My pic of the day , mine alongside my mates TA22 at a classic show last weekend

I was in the Z Club (and TEC) back in the early 90's , and the Z Club organised the Japanese Classic and Sportscar Days at Goodwood '92 and Aintree '93 ( I went to both ) They were not called Japanese Auto Extravaganza From memory , after those shows things then moved to Billing , with the Z Club Convention and the TEC National , when they started inviting other Japanese car clubs , which got bigger and bigger and ended up being billed as JAE in 1997 I'm not normally so pendantic , i just think it odd they saying it started in 1991 , wen it didn't althou could just be a genuine mistake , getting a 1 and a 7 mixed up

Looking at the T shirts on the JAE website and see they have got Est. 1991 on them I am pretty sure that JAE started either 1996 or 1997 , not 1991

Oil and filter time

Heres the results for the GT4 and the vert , GT4 made more than the estimate. don't know if that's the hammer price or if it include the buyers commission https://www.glenmarch.com/cars/results/quick/Toyota/Celica?unsold=1 The 1977 ST is in the August auction https://mathewsons.co.uk/auctions/auction-dates/vehicles/10791-expected-for-july-sale-1977-toyota-celica-st According to the DVLA is not been taxed since 1986 !
