There was a Time Attack and High speed run for the 35's.

In the first session the HKS 35 ran just over 311 kph down the main straight of Fuji.

Top Secret ran around 303 KPH.

I was talking to a mate from HKS and he said on the Saturday practice they ran just over 320 KPH !!

More later .................

Yep it was open to the public..great day just bloody freezing.

havent you spent time in Hokkaido? I heard it has gotten as low as -30C there although I could have completely misunderstood as it was said in Japanese. Gifu was pretty cold around the time of the HKS day - about 30cm of snow in the city - I made a snowman .... deformed and miniscule but a snowman nonetheless .... I called him John....John Howard....he is all melted now.

House in Hokkaido?? Awesome!! Are houses expensive up there? I havent even been off Honshu yet - Miyajima doesnt really count does it .

Yokohama Chinatown is definitly one of the top places on my mental list to visit, might try for some jobs around Tokyo - my contract finishes at the end of the school year - March. Maybe visit Yokohama then.

Woops thread hijacking in progress :)

Yeah Loach houses,land,apartments are all in cheap in Hokkaido. Pretty much cheap all over Japan.

I think housing / land prices are running at an either 17 or 18 year record low with each year getting lower and lower.

There are many investment opportunities out there and buying property in Japan is 1) user friendly on the hip pocket and 2) very easy to obtain as a foreigner.

I bought into Niseko quite a few years ago when it was a quiet little town and picked up my place cheap as chips and its now worth very good coin.

There are some great investment opportunities for a low capital investment if you know what your looking for.

Yokohama...I love staying there, plenty of good restaurants, bars ,live venues,women,clubs plus great car scene.

Definitely worth you having a look.

I'll have more pics up tomorrow
