date and location:
Gatebil Festival, Mantorp (Sweden) - 29th-1st of July (Friday-Sunday)



So. Does anyone wanna come over.
If it was closer to my home I could have offered a place to sleep. But It's to far away so I will look into camping on site.

If there is enough interest. I can look up if the S15oc can have a club stand or something.

I won't be driving on this event as it sometimes looks like it gets a little rough
Rough cost for you UK guys to get here with your S15 would be about ?500.


So who will come over?

It's kinda like a big motorsport oriented festival
Should be heaps of fun.

been thinking bout going to this was wondering is it safe to leave the cars here alright?

I'm still keen, but I've got so much going on at the mo I'm going to have to think about it a few days...

Think people need to bear in mind its going to cost ?500+ to take your car over.

I put that in the first thread. It's pretty steep
To bad they closed that DFDS ferry to Gothenburg.

How about the mainland S15 owners? Biggest cost for you guys would be fuel and the bridge fee from denmark.

I would love to make the trip, my uncle stays near Goteburg so could meet up with him to. But, and its a bug BUT, i've got a house to pay for around August time so need all the cash i can lay my hands on. Maybe next year :thumbs:

I can keep you company Paul.
Allthough I will not be driving the S15 this year.

I have the workshop 1km from Mantorp park so I can offer people a place to sleep. Not 5 star but anyway.

 

[Yakozan]

Just an update. This event is on Friday to Sunday.
I'll be there with the S15 from friday evening to sunday.
Will be camping with some friends.

Hopefully I will have my sideskirts on by then
Really looking forward to this.

If anyone wants more info or plans to attend, drop me a PM
I'll try to find my camera for some pics of the event. But I think there will be loads of pics from other photographers so that bit might be covered by others

Next year mate :thumbs:

Phew. Back after a hard weekend at the track. The event was very very good. Some really mental cars.
Phil Morrisons old S14a was there and drifted along with some S15s and S13 and alot of other cars.

Here is a video from the event.

In the evenings there was live bands and a "Miss Gatebil" show.
This was the first year Gatebil had an event in Sweden so next year will probobly be better. Although I think it was really good this year.

I like the Drifting R34, and that Red Adui Quattro is pretty quick

Was Mr Morrison driving the S14?

 

[Nicely]
