[Rezz]

Sorry, I meant Toyota Estima "rent-a-car"...!

[HKSgtst]

[franks]

hehe, i am going to talk to the boys about renting a car in japan. i think that will be the way to go if we were to go and travel into the mountains etc....

it might be cheaper than catching 2 cabs everywhere aswell (where we can't catch trains) ... but were right next to tokyo central station, so it shouldn't be too difficult!

TAS04 is on the weekend of 10,11 and 12th? of January.

[Blitz]

9th 10th and 11th Franky - 9th being Friday (Trade only)

cool that weekend anyways

[Demon Dave]

20 guys in an Estima - should be possible!

Rezz, I should be able to go (wife and son also). Just wanna confirm with everyone on the thread - what day will the SAU be invading the TAS??:D

Friday is open to the public, but I believe it's from mid afternoon only.

Oh, for anyone wanting more info on the event look here

[Blitz]

Dave I think we are looking at Saturday at this stage.

And yep looks like it is open for public access from 1pm Friday

[Demon Dave]

Yep, just checked with Rezz - going to be sat 10th Jan.

[Blitz]

[Demon Dave]

BTW - just wanna check, is everyone OK with how to get to the event? Getting down to Makuhari Messe from Tokyo isn't that difficult...

great work!!!

we are 5 stops away!!!

[Blitz]

Hahaha we are 2 stops away staying in Chiba. 15 minutes via train

That Makuhari website and the autosalon page have loads of helpful info no how to get there via train/bus/car

Should make things easy

yeah, but IMHO, you're too far away from the centre of the city!

TAS is only 1 day for us! we have 10 days in Japan.

Nothing a Rail pass wont fix - we are happy considering the travel package that we organised.
