"SO WE'RE TURNING JAPANESE, I SAID WE'RE TURNING JAPANESE, I REALLY THINK SO!"
Only those of a certain age will remember those lyrics! But yes, today we turned Japanese with the all Jap Bangers and 1300 Stock Cars. Eight Juniors, nineteen Bangers, and twenty-one 1300 Stock Cars made the trip to the Cow Shed today, to enjoy the usual mix of fun, laughter, banter, racing and wrecking!
