*REPORT* Jap Show Finale Santa Pod
Well....

One thing to mention about my last visit to the pod this year...WET

It was the wettest i have EVER seen it, huge puddles, fields were boggy and flooded, we got soaked right through and it never stopped raining

We waited till around 12.30 before calling it a day after buying an umbrella, hiding in a trade stand, then hiding in the cafe next to the radiator.

I braved the elements for 20 mins just to take a few snaps of the event, no track or drift action was taking place really and it was certainly too wet to watch

Show and shine was quiet and most had left before we did

However about 50 photos i did take before i gave up are being uploaded to the gallery

And for those in the know...Andy Alto was there!

Top 10 i hear you cry......Here ya go!

1. Very Smart Galant

Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

RE: *Report* Jap Show Finale Santa Pod
Bit of good news from Santa Pond!!!!

Quote:Rain-Off Values for Tickets

The JapShow Finale was adversely affected by severe weather. Although there is nothing we can do to change this, we would like to thank fans of the event for their continued support and commitment to the scene, and we are offering rain-out values on tickets that reflect the initial purchase price and the level of disruption caused.

Please hold on to your ticket. This can be used as a voucher to get money off future Santa Pod tickets. The rain-off values are as follows:

Jap-car tickets (both weekend and Sunday) are worth £10
Non-Jap tickets (both weekend and Sunday) are worth £15

In order to use your rained-off tickets as vouchers, either telephone Santa Pod on 01234 782828 for advance ticket bookings, or take them with you next time you visit and get your discount on the gate.

Events you might like to consider:

* Saturday Night Special, 11th October. Atmospheric extra-long RWYB session. Details at http://www.RWYB.com.
* Flame & Thunder, 1st November. Great family entertainment event with jet vehicles, fireworks and race cars including HKS Drag Series demos and John Bradshaw vs Steve Whittaker grudge match! http://www.SantaPod.com.
