Santa Pod Hosts Japshow
15 June 2009
If you're one to turn East when choosing a righteous ride, the combined
offerings of Toyota, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi at al will be at the
ever-popular, crowd-drawing JapShow, when it returns to Santa Pod Raceway
on Sunday 21st June. Dragstrip sponsor, Turbo Dynamics will have a
presence at the event with two ‘TD
Girls’ who
will be handing out goodie bags and available for photos. Accompanying
the girls will be three TD employees who will be on-hand during the
event to answer spectators’ technical questions about turbochargers
and performance accessories etc.
As well as the sponsor’s presence at the
event, the JapShow will include a test day (taking place the Saturday
before), the usual ‘Run
What Ya Brung’ competitions, drift demos and the HKS Drag Series,
which will showcase some of Europe’s fastest cars. Not stopping
there, the event also includes Club Displays, a Show Car Paddock, Handling
Challenges, a Mobile Dyno, Fun Fair and the Auto Trader: Cars for Sale
Paddock.
One of the biggest crowd-pleasers of the day, however, will undoubtedly
be Santa Pod Raceway’s famous Jet Car. Driven at full-throttle
by Martin Hill, the car will amaze spectators as it travels down the
dragstrip at over 270 MPH.
Yet another popular aspect to this year’s event will be the stunt
displays where none other than Terry Grant himself will be behind the
wheel of some popular Japanese cars. Grant, who has multiple world
records to his name, will be performing manoeuvres such as, driving
through parked caravans, spinning cars around bikini-clad girls, driving
with one foot and even driving two cars single-handedly!
Catering for all needs, TD-sponsored Santa Pod Raceway has its own
campsite allowing drivers and spectators alike to make a full weekend
of it.
To ensure you don’t miss out on the action-packed and entertainment
filled event, get your tickets online now at: www.japshow.com or

Hayley’ will
