Some images from Japmeet in Sweden.
20 Rx7's and 3 Rx8's

In all around 400 cars showed up.
Apart from tracktime, there were dyno and dragracing.

Nice weather and it's always nice to meet rotary friends!

All 100 images are at my site.

some more

 

That must have been a pretty nice meeting.
I seriously need to try Mantorp Park one day when its not raining
Thanks for the usual high quality pictures, Magnus

 

It was,quite a lot of new faces.
The FD now comes in in quite large numbers (for beeing an rx7) from japan and the UK.
I'd say that more than half of the FD's were right hand drive.

The two 8's raced alot! Both running nice tires and some goddies.
I think the did 5 or 6 20-25 minute runs!

Lennart (who has the blue one) has an almost ready trackday 8 as well.
Sorry it's in swedish only.. lots of pics...

It nice to here that more FD's are making it out to trackdays. I noticed quit a few jap models from your photo's. I thought Martin had parted out and sold his FD.... anyway, glad to see him on the track.

Magnus, did you see the crashed silver 300Z? where on the track did it happen? looked pretty bad.

 

Here's a link to the crashed 300z

and the silver 300zx had to much throttle out of the corner, (32,33) and crashed into the Pit-barrier (on the other side of the track of the 34 number). It was the owners friend who drove the car, as most of the crashes on trackdays

THe Nissan as you said had way to much power comming on to the start/finish straight....

they call it "Japmeet" ? wow.

 

Magnus and Exlex,

Thank you both for the great video's and info on the 300z, shame it hit so hard. Seems the line of cars is still long for Japmeet, but if your lucky (like the white fc) and stay out long enough, you get some nice clear laps. I hope to visit you guys again in the near future...

Regards
Oliver
