What you should know before you go
Six 12-minute heats per class followed by a drift contest, about 15 cars a class, with NA classes. Worth knowing because Nikko normally restricts general spectators and bans filming without the driver’s and owner’s consent; on this day the organiser is openly inviting a gallery.
