  that was me   imo namura didn't deserve to beat the s15 i think it was, he wasn't as good and they kept making it 5-5 and doing sudden death - really pissed me off as the s15 was much better... 
 
anyway loved kuma kuma's scooby   but top secrets car was awesine   
 
i was hoping to see someone i knew in the stands

Was a fucking amazing day out boys!! 
 
Thought Macnamara was robbed in his runs against Kazama - some intense stuff!!  Atmosphere in the crowd was class - edge of the seat action!!! 
 
Sudden death was quality but I agree - I think Nomura got pipped. 
 
One thing I must remember though is not to associate sun with warmth    It was fucking freezing    
 
Anyway, I'll get some pics up in a bit too

We were sat in the BDCS of wot eva it was called   was an quality atmosphere from the crowd there with everyone cheering and stamping on the floor   and warmer there 
 
We moved onto the other side then for the twin drifting and was freezng there sat right on the top row due to no space anywhere else i froze my tits off   atmosphere wasnt as good in there tho haha
