Hi Guys

Just in case you don't know the Guys from Japan are

Shigeru Uehara was the chief designer for the NSX

Hirofumi Tomiyoshi is the president of the NSX Club of Japan

Very interesting and pleasant guys. They speak some English and Kumiko will help with translation.

Simon
 
Would love a Shigeru Uehara signature in my glove box like the guys in the states.......but I'm sure that honour will only be reserved for those that are attending...... :)

Yes this is a real privilege to have Hirofumi San bringing Uehara San from Japan and also Lud, Peter and Benjamin making the even longer trek from the US!

I was going to bring someone along to enjoy our trip, however, now I will make the trip by myself to make sure there is room in my car to accommodate our overseas VIP guests!

Wow I'm so excited!!!
 
Yes it is shaping up to be a fantastic week of NSXing!! Really looking forward to taking the NSX on those Tassy roads and catching up with some of the people we met in Japan on the 20th Anniversary trip.

It will be difficult to match the hospitality Hirofumi extended to us all on that trip but we are going to give it a go!!

For anyone who is thinking of going, time is getting on and now is the chance to take part in this unique event. If you are already booked, great, but have a chat to fellow NSX's".........we dont want anyone missing out.......

Cheers Scott

NSX Australia 2013 – Epilogue

Seasons Greetings and Happy Holidays; Your NSX Australia 2013 Organising Committee is expecting that we’re going to have such a great time, that no-one will want to go home. Sooooo, we have arranged a great “After Party”;

After we arrive back in Melbourne, we will disembark from the ferry at around 6:30 on the morning of Monday, February 25th. We will drive to ESSENDON HONDA, http://www.essendonhonda.com.au
Thanks to the generosity of the great team at Essendon Honda, we will be able to enjoy a sizzling breakfast.

The call is going out to all the Melbourne based NSXers, who couldn’t do the awesome Tasmanian section of the event, to join us for breakfast, a great photo opportunity (the meeting of the most NSX’s ever in the southern hemisphere !!!) followed by a run down the Great Ocean Road to the World Heritage listed Twelve Apostles http://www.visitgreatoceanroad.org.au/twelve-apostles. After lunch, our South Australian friends will continue on home and we will continue on to major Race Car Transmission manufacturer, Albins, in Ballarat http://www.albinsgear.com.au . Their transmissions are used around the world, including our own V8 Super car series. We will over-night in Ballarat, before going our separate ways. For those without cars, some of us will return via Melbourne airport, so we can arrange a drop-off.

There is no cost for the Epilogue, but Essendon Honda and Albins have insisted that we advise them of exact numbers, at least 2 weeks in advance; NO “walk-ins” on the day. Simply let us know that you will be there, by emailing to; [email protected]

To our overseas friends; We apologise for the short notice. We understand that many of you will have fixed air tickets and other arrangements. If you are able to change your schedule and join us, you will be most welcome… …and treated like royalty.

Please get those RSVP’s in and Best Wishes for a Merry Christmas from the all of the Committee and Essendon Honda.
