Hyper Meeting 2008 - Tsukuba Circuit

Got back from Japan on Wednesday night. Went to the Mitsubishi / Subaru Hyper Meeting at Tsukuba Circuit last Sunday. There were literally hundreds upon hundreds of Evos and STis in the parking lots outside the circuit. It was an amazing trip and I plan to return to climb Mt. Fuji and drive to a few other places outside Tokyo. More pictures can be found @ http://picasaweb.google.com/ookami.ame/HyperMeeting2008


Dunlop Evo X sporting the new Star Spec tire.


She stood taller than me and I'm 6'0 !

Maids are everywhere in Japan, even at the race track.

One of the three drift cars at the event.

Cyber Evo... it's damn quick!

Black Illusion Evo X, this car was impressive to see in person.

Black Illusion Evo X on track.

It was a fairly warm day, shade under a Yokohama Advan umbrella is nice.

These three are setup for drifting, they just got done on track.

Our view from the bleachers.

Getting sideways with a lucky passenger during one of the breaks in between the races.

If you don't mind me asking what does it cost to take a trip to Japan?

It's not cheap, expect it to be at least $2000-3000 per person. It really depends on how long you stay (we were there two weeks), what hotel and airfare. I recommend renting a car with navigation in Tsuchiura and staying at Okura Frontier Tsukuba if you go to Tsukuba Circuit. Another great hotel in Japan is the Park Hotel Tokyo. Plan your trip around the end of March, beginning of April and you'll see cherry blossoms, which was a great bonus.
