Rice cake party at Gan-san's house in Hakone

[Terry]

Dear friends,

At first I apologize to you because my English is not good m(_ _)m

How are you?
I am so happy to meet many NSX owners from many countries at Fiesta.

I went to Gan-san's house in Hakone on December 19th.
Every year, Gan-san invites us to rice cake party in this season.
There are many hot springs and many tourists come to Hakone.
And there are nice road!

I had a very good time at Gan-san's house!
Hirofumi-san and other so many NSX owners came.
Mr. Katsumata (the vice chairman of NSX club of Japan) made and treat to Soba.
Soba made by Mr. Katsumata is so delicious!!

After Gan-san's house, I went to Aoyama Honda with Hirofumi-san.
There were GT-car and Indy-car!

Best wishes for 2011,
Terumasa

Hi Terry!

Thanks for sharing those pictures!

Wow an HSV-010 GT! That was something we missed seeing during our trip. (although I did see a hood at Mugen!)

I want to thank you for helping us during NSX Fiesta and it was great to meet you! Hope to see you again soon!

How are you?
Sorry I did not email you those pictures. I'll do it this weekend.
In the meantime, I've attached one here in front of your Type R.

Hello Terumasa, English is perfect!:smile:

 

[Terry]

Hello friends.

I am happy because friends are glad of sharing photos!
I will try to contribute to NSX prime of future our events.

 

[prelude]

Terumasa, I would like to meet @ Suzuka Circiut in Oct.9 2011. If I can do it I will. Anybody else?

 

[POWERED by HONDA]

For the F1 race??

[prelude]

Yes!

John... You ever been to an F1 race? You have no idea what you're getting into.

Hey Terry,

Your English is fine, thanks for posting the pictures on Prime for your friends outside Japan.

I remember seeing most of these faces on the group photos at NSX Fiesta. We all had such a great time in Japan, and thanks to you some of us got to ride in your NSX_R before going to Suzuka.

Keep posting....

Bram

Thank you, Terry:wink:

Gan-san invite many NSX owners and others to his second house in Hakone every summer and winter. We enjoy BBQ in summer.

Haha...bringing back some recent memories with some of the faces in the pictures.

Thank you for posting, Terry! I'm still buzzing about NSX Fiesta and am fairly sure my friends and family are tired of me talking about it.

No, Harry never been, more of a reason to go. What should I expect?

Call me. Too much for here.
But to start $$$$$$, all the hotels within 100 miles are already booked, and you don't speak the language.
Other than that, no problem-o.

If I may be so bold, I did some researching after Fiesta and, IMHO, the best way to get around the issues above is to book with an travel outfit like Grand Prix Tours:

It's a little more expensive but the experience is second to none (or so I've heard).

You're absolutely right,,, Grand Prix Tours is the way to go... but have you ever priced it?

The $2K they post is just the start. That said it's the way I would go... been to several F1 races in the past (European)... need to do the zoo at Monaco!

Yeah, they sent me the catalog and everything a couple of weeks ago. And that's 2k per person. Really though, between the time, effort, and dough to actually get to the race, you might as well do it right with the listed perks and with a minimum of frustration.

YMMV though.

 

[prelude]

100 miles, bummer. 2k does that include airfare?

 

[passline]

100 miles, bummer. 2k bummer.

He's right Marino. Come with me to Montreal (Canadian F1). We can get Bram to go with us and I will get the Westin with executive lounge so Bram can have his single malts. :biggrin::biggrin:
