About me: Picture this...It's been a HOT scorching day in August. In fact, the sun has been beating down on you all Summer long. It doesn't seem to stop. It's been a lazy Saturday for you just sitting by the pool checking out the scenery, and now it's getting later in the afternoon. But this afternoon is different. There is a buzz in the air. You can feel it. Tonight is the night. You've been waiting for this for months. It's finally here. Tonight is the night of Shakotan. It's time for the event to finish off your perfect Summer. Your car is prepped and ready to go. The time has come to get in your ride and roll towards Downtown Boise. It's time to get there and listen to one of the area's best DJ's mix it up as the sun goes down. It's time to see the best B-Boys from the surrounding areas battle it out on the street. It's time to see some of the sickest Japanese cars from all around gathered in one place. It's time for Shakotan.....Are you down?
Thanks for looking! We are proud to present Shakotan Matsuri (Shok-o-tan Mawt-soo-ree) which means "Lowered car Festival" in Japanese. Shakotan will also have the look and feel of the Japanese culture. Our goal in creating this event is to go outside the typical local and even national "car show" realm by bringing new exciting elements, sponsors, and ideas to Boise. Our passion as committee members has always been not just Japanese cars, but the approach, honor, and commitment the Japanese take when building a car in whatever style they may choose for whatever purpose. We are enthusiasts and felt that showcasing the many styles associated with Japanese culture like Drifting, VIP, Circuit, Gymkhana (AutoX), Rally and Drag is a good way for other enthusiasts to come together and share their passions in the form of their cars. We want to display everything from the ultra clean VIP car, down to the everyday purpose built drift car that has been well used to drift.
We hope to see you in 2009!
