IS THIS ONE OF THOSE TYPICAL “IMPORT” CAR SHOWS?

WHO ORGANIZES THIS?

The organizers of Motoring J Style, David and Martin Swig, are no strangers to the car world. They also organize the annual California Mille historic race car tour and other motoring events. They’ve been around the Japanese car hobby since Martin acquired a Datsun dealership in 1969, the first of many Japanese franchises. David, who has worked for both Road & Track and Motor Trend, races a Datsun 510 and an AE86 Toyota Corolla.

ARE THERE HOTELS NEARBY?

DRIFTING INFORMATION

Drift Competition will be limited to ~30 cars as in 2007. Organized by Drift Day Norcal. This is a judged competition and not a practice day – therefore, track time will be limited.. But hey, when else do you get to drift – legally – in front of huge crowds of spectators?

Registration forms will be available soon. Please check back so that you can register.

RALLY DEMONSTRATION

As last year, our friends from WORKS will stun the crowd with everyone’s favorite event – the rally demonstration!
