Japanese Auto Performance Show 2001 (JAPS)
Saturday/Sunday 23rd & 24th June 2001
Stanford Hall, Lutterworth, Leicestershire
A spin-off from last year's Japanese Auto Extravaganza, this is the first time JAPS has been held and we had a pretty good turn out, with 17 GTO's at one point on Day 1 and about 12 on Day 2. Time for some photos...
 These are photo's from Day 1 |

Thanks to all those who attended our inaugral committee meeting. The constitution was agreed as was the subscription fee. Sorry if it was your first time and you found it all a bit heavy going, but this has been bubbling along for a year now and it was nice to finally get something sorted officially.
The Gold Membership scheme has now been launched. You can access this via the "JOIN GTOUK" menu to the left. We hope to be able to offer some significant discounts to members.
The fireworks looked fantastic through my drunken haze and in between putting the world to rights with Mark Sturman! ;-)
Hope to see you all again soon (at the JAE perhaps?).
