Yet again another show, this time it was the Jap Pro Shootout final. I'd been looking forward to this event since May time when i was last down at Santa Pod. I had to wake up at about 4.30am just to meet GeeUK in Huddersfield, so i didn't even bother going to sleep haha. The convoy down to Pod was a good laugh though, we had about seven Starlets and a couple of other random cars like a Nismo 350Z and a Celica GT-4.

When we first arrived at Santa Pod there were so many Japanese cars to look at, infact there was too many to even. I couldn't believe how many cars actually turned up, i had no chance of photographing them all so i just stuck to the cars that really stood out to me, i think my personal favourite cars were the black S13 Silvia with flared arches, and the JZX90 Chaser. There was also a drifting demo arena which had quite a lot of action going on all day long with free ride alongs and a demo from the Steer From the Rear boys too. The pics below are of the show cars and the drifting demo arena.

Ok, the final part to this post is the Pro Shootout cars, i got a few shots of the cars on the strip and in the gallery aswell, this is what i came down to see, the Norris Designs Evo, and the other cars were insanely fast. I just loved the noise and the smell of all the cars, its one of those experience where you have to actually be there, but i have the next best thing in the form of photograph's.

I saw a Skyline GT-R do an 8.8 sec quater mile at about 185mph which is absolutley crazy. The other cars such as the Envy Supra and CRD Supra were also amazing to watch, this was a totally awseome day its got to be said. Same time next year for definate i'm there. Enjoy the final pics.
