Is anyone off here going this year? I have never been but I'll be in Tokyo around that time so I'm hoping to make it down. Does anyone know if the tickets go on sale online?

[Mr. Keets]

A bit early for snow but there is always plenty to do.

Anyone want to split van rental to and from the track? I'll Probably stay in Shibuya or West Shinjuku unless anyone has a better 5 star option

[elrodeo666]

Yep tickets go on sale from 12am 1/11/2010 and can only be bought online in japan as you need japanese phone number and there are limits to how many tickets you can buy.

I bought a bunch for guys here last year and will be back doing some work there from early oct for about a month so will be able to do the same again but this time for a small fee as it takes up my time away from hostess clubs !!

Warning... Pit Walk, Track bus ride sell out super super fast !! There are no guarantee of getting these.

General admission can be bought at the gate on the day no problems.

I already have a few guys so they are first on the list !

Mr Keets I stayed in Fuji town and thats got some errrr 5 star dodgy kyabba kura bars..

Be warned the drive back to Tokyo after the festival on a sunday can be hellish and long as usually there is some accident on the Tomei as a few crew on SAU can attest !!

[N1GTR]

The drive back is like a living, barely moving hell of red brake lights in your face when all you want to do is sleep.

The guys I'm going with a renting a couple of vans so I'm sure there will be a couple of spare seats

[Equinox]

Sounds like there is a bit of a following already. Hopefully get to meet up with some of you SAU interstate'ers when I'm there.

Elrodeo might have to take you up on that!

[Mr. Keets]

Well that sounds like a plan...I'm in

[N1GTR]

Why don't we all post up dates we will be there for and then we can go from there on accom and rental vans if you guys want to do it as a group?

I'm thinking Dec 2nd to the 8/9th. I'll post up the hotel I'll be at when I get home (details aren't with me right now) but it's about $90 per night for a private room that's VERY spacious compared to the Prince hotel etc

[Mr. Keets]

I'll be starting a new Project in the new year so a week in Jp sounds good. I found a flight Per to Tky cheap cheap.

Fly out of Perth 1/12

Fly out of Tky 8/12

[Equinox]

I haven't booked the hotels yet but I'll be in Tokyo from the 4th till the 10th.

[NYTSKY]

I recommend the Shigetsu Ryokan in Asakusa for accommodation. Ive stayed there twice now, cheap close to transport and has the Asakusa markets and temple at your front door.

And yes the drive back from Nismo was epic. I took one for the team and drove through the sleep while i heard 4 different pitched snores from behind me lol

Wont be attending this year unfortunately, i could only get 2 days spare so it made my decision.

[N1GTR]

Oh no Dave bad news!

[NYTSKY]

Yeh pretty crappy. But im planning to go to the TAS again next year fingers crossed.

[Equinox]

Just a heads-up for anyone thinking of getting to Japan on the cheap at around this time. Jetstar have a sale on for the next 48 hours. Just checked Melbourne to Osaka return for only $650 inc taxes.

[elrodeo666]

$521 return from the Goldy to Tokyo

[N1GTR]

Tickets booked!!

Dec2 to Dec10

Staying in Asakusa at Shigetsu, ¥7700 per night for a private western style room

Anyone else want to stay there feel free also we've got a van with a few spare seats for the trip to NISMO festival and back so get in touch if you want

[jeff]

I would love to go again this year but unfortunately I cant!

elrodeo is a champ ... who else would be kind enough to buy tickets for us Aussies.

pity i couldnt meet you in person last year !

anyone going this year that would be kind enough to bring back one of the racing rims for me? One from the Calsonic team if possible? Think they were around the Y10000 mark? Pm me

I bought one last year from the Cerumo team at the Rays stand for Y3000 only.

And yes the drive back to Tokyo that night was ridiculous! More than double the time it would take normally (lucky I wasnt driving and slept for most of it)

As for accomodation....we stayed at Gotenba Station Hotel.... only 10 or so minute drive from the track...

Woke up and just followed all the other Skylines to the track
