Gravity and GoJapan 2026
It was a busy bank holiday weekend for the Probite team as we headed to two major events back-to-back, starting with Gravity Show at the NEC Birmingham on Saturday and Sunday before heading straight to Brands Hatch for GoJapan on Monday.
Our second year at Gravity saw us return with a bigger and better stand, and it was fantastic to see just how much the brand has grown since our first appearance at the show last year.
Gravity Show once again delivered an incredible weekend for automotive enthusiasts, bringing together thousands of visitors and an incredible variety of cars from across the UK and beyond. From supercars and custom builds to classics, race cars and drift machinery, there was something to catch your eye wherever you looked, all backed by the fantastic atmosphere that Gravity has become known for.
One of the biggest highlights for us was seeing the noticeable increase in people who already recognised the Probite name. Compared to last year, we had significantly more visitors telling us they had heard of the brand, already knew about our products, or had even been recommended to come and check us out. Seeing that growing awareness within the enthusiast community was fantastic and made the weekend particularly rewarding for the whole team.
We also came prepared with plenty of freebies and merchandise to give away throughout the weekend, and they certainly proved popular! Our goody bags were being taken faster than we could put them out, while plenty of visitors stopped by to pick up some of our other promotional items and check out what we had on offer.
A huge thank you also goes to our guests @sxt_soph and @brettbarnz, who joined us for the weekend with their cars on display. Both cars looked fantastic on the stand and really helped bring the display to life, drawing plenty of attention from visitors throughout the weekend.
Away from our stand, there was an incredible selection of cars to explore across the show. Gravity once again demonstrated exactly why it has become such a major fixture on the UK automotive calendar, combining incredible machinery with live entertainment, interactive displays, industry brands and personalities to create a great weekend for enthusiasts of all ages.
As always, we'd like to thank everyone who came over to the Probite stand during the weekend. Whether you stopped for a chat about our performance braking products, picked up some freebies, checked out our merchandise, or simply came over to say hello, it was great to meet so many of you.
GoJapan at Brands Hatch
There was no time to slow down after Gravity, as on Monday morning we headed straight to Brands Hatch for GoJapan, joining Time Attack UK and the Racing Hondas Championship for another action-packed day of Japanese automotive culture and motorsport.
GoJapan once again proved to be a hugely popular event, bringing together an impressive collection of Japanese machinery from manufacturers including Honda, Toyota, Nissan and Subaru. With everything from carefully built JDM show cars to highly modified performance machines, there was plenty for visitors to discover throughout the day.
The on-track action was just as impressive, with Time Attack UK returning to Brands Hatch as drivers battled to set the fastest laps of the day. The Racing Hondas Championship provided plenty of close racing, while the Drift Exhibitions added plenty of sideways action to the programme.
For us, it was another fantastic opportunity to meet enthusiasts, showcase our range of performance braking products and continue building the Probite brand within the Japanese performance car community.
A big thank you also goes to @eg_haz and @sammythecargirl, who brought their cars down and displayed them alongside us. Having some great cars on the stand always helps attract attention and gives visitors another reason to stop by and have a chat.
With the combination of the OBSESSION Car Show, Japanese-themed traders, entertainment and plenty of action on track, GoJapan was a fantastic way to round off an incredibly busy three days for the team.
What's Next?
Our show season is now heading towards its final stop, as we'll be returning to Cadwell Park for Modified Live on 20th September, bringing our busy run of events to a close.
It's been a fantastic year of shows so far, and we're looking forward to finishing the season on a high. We hope to see plenty of you at Cadwell Park!
