Default JAE 2015 - Japanese Auto Extravaganza - Thu 10th to Sun 13th September *



From JAE Website:


The dates and venue for JAE 2015 have been confirmed and we have a new home from now on. Gone are the days of Wicksteed Park and, though it was fun, we ran out of room and couldn't get any more. Now we have a new venue with new opportunities and - coming soon - some new events! All in good time and in time honoured fashion the JAE Reps meeting will be held early in the Spring so clubs can come and see at first hand and stake their claim for their plots. It all promises to be very exciting!

JAE 2015

  • Gates open midday Thursday 10th September, the event closes on Sunday 13th September
  • Now at the Newark Showground

TICKETS:

Following attendance of the JAE Club reps meeting, there will be some new changes, all of which are very good.

As taken from the page:

At the Club Reps Meeting we told the representatives about all the new additions for JAE 2015:

Learn 2 Drift: where you can have a one hour lesson in a drift car, not as a passenger like some events; but as a driver with full instruction. That is before finishing off with a few high speed laps at the hands of a pro! Sorry but this is chargeable and can be booked through L2D's website (http://www.learn2drift.com/) or the JAE website - booking page coming soon

Crashman Stunts: where Dave Crashman will be performing his latest stunts and amusing the crowds. This is not a one-off lunchtime special but a whole series of displays, stunts and events throughout both Saturday and Sunday. For those wanting to experience it up close Dave will be offering passenger rides to raise money for his charity. The full timetable: http://www.japcarclu...ation/timetable

4x4 Off-roading: In association with Yellow Diamond we will offer a FREE* 4x4 area for all those that want it. Passengers don't need the special ticket. We are also offering passenger rides and competitive events. All the money raised from passenger rides will go to charity. Competitions will be announced later. 4x4 is open all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Gates open midday Thursday for advanced entry, and set up (* - you will need a Thursday ticket or a 4x4 ticket for drivers only to do this. Day visitors can buy an extra 4x4 access (£10) from JAE Admin)

Kamikaze Kitchen will be at JAE for the first time. This is a really exciting addition and is authentic Japanese cooking done to a very high standard. Full details of Kamikaze Kitchen will be announced later but for now, just book your place in the queue!

Food Theme Nights will operate in the hall adjacent to JAE Admin. Menus will be announced later but expect to see the likes of Chilli, Curries and so on for a good sit down meal indoors. The Hall will also be where the evening's entertainment will take place.


Friday and Saturday nights at JAE will feature a mix of disco, live band and, hopefully a karaoke, as well as pub quiz (Kuiza) and other events and activities. The trophy presentation will be after fireworks to allow people more time to get ready for the evening's entertainment. Because of noise issues outside noise must turn down at 11:30pm However the bar, disco and other night time entertainment will go on until 2am! As well as a full bar you can still bring your own drinks into the venue. Speaking of indoors, for those that have watched this part of JAE grow over the last couple of years the new hall is much bigger than our old massive Event-Tent!

Please note: after the fireworks hazard lights etc are fine. NO REVVING OF ENGINES. Aside from being illegal (failure to control a vehicle) you've probably been drinking (drunk in charge of a vehicle) and unless your seated, door close, seat belt on you're breaking multiple other laws as well. But most of all the locals don't want it and we don't want to piss them off!!! Security have been told to come down hard on anyone doing this and may confiscate your cars keys or give you the option to leave - if you have been drinking this means on foot! As a community we really must put a stop to this anti-social behaviour. Club Reps we are asking for your help.

Gates open as ever at midday on Thursday and stay open 24 hours a day until we close on Sunday. There is now a whole lot more for you to do on the Sunday for those who want to stay, Learn to Drift, Crashman Stunts, 4x4 - and some other things we are still working on! http://www.japcarclu...imetable#sunday

HKS are again the JAE Prime Sponsor and will be on hand to make our inter club Its-a-Knockout better than ever. For 2015 we no longer have Dragon Boats - no lake - but will be adding something new to the competition. Full IKO details will be announced soon: http://www.japcarclu...on/competitions

Dodo Juice are once again sponsoring our free to enter Show n Shine. With a £2000 total prize fund it's certainly a competition worth entering. Expect to see the Dodo Man with his spy close inspecting your paintwork! Cars entering the competition will be on display all day Saturday outside JAE Admin and our Entertainment Hall. Cars will be judged throughout the day and will form a main attraction. So get polishing, get your sponsors logos on the car and hope you win!

All the clubs that have booked are now plotted on our map and we will soon be releasing a new field for those not yet booked. Already we have more clubs booked for 2015 than turned up in 2014! It seems the new venue really is making a positive difference. So don't forget we are now at Newark Showground.
