::: Cleaning - Get Your Car Looking Spot On! :::

ImageImage

Get Sponging:

Plenty of owners and stand exhibitions spend the time cleaning their vehicles on the days before the show, but if you would like to give your car that last shine, then there is a water tap on site for you to use - just remember to bring those sponges!

There will be lots of photographs taken on the day, many of which will be submitted to the various car magazines for the aftershow article, including Banzai, Japanese Performance and Max Power.

Get those wheels shiny and get that bodywork polished! :)


Competitions:

There are awards available on the day for both Best I.C.E. and Show & Shine.
You can collect the entry forms from the Japan North Stand on the day and there is no fee to enter.


Food Court:

At Japan North 2008, we have a food court available, so there will be something to munch down on when you're a tad peckish!


Vehicle Forms:

Just a quick reminder to get those forms downloaded and displayed in your window, which are available towards the end of this thread.


All the best,
