Default Forged Performance: 5th Annual ZDayZ Airstrip Event

The time has come for our 5th Annual ZDayZ Airport Strip Event! Just like previous years we have reserved the 3,075 feet long Hendersonville, NC Airport Landing Strip for an afternoon of high performance automotive testing.



This is the perfect opportunity to legally test the performance of your vehicle against others in a safe and controlled environment. With the strip receiving a fresh surface a few years ago the strip is flat and smooth which permits cars to reach speeds of 140mph and still allowing ample braking room!





While this event is officially part of the Nissan based ZDayZ Event participants from the past years included not only Nissan but also the owners of American V8's, Honda guys and the Evo/STI crowd. The diversity of this event makes the friendly smack talk and the competitive nature even more enjoyable. With cars from 200whp up to 900whp at last years event there was always someone to "test" your cars performance against no matter your power level!




As always we will have "Top Dawg" trophy up for grabs to the owner of the fastest car participating!

DATE: May 17th from 11am to 4pm.

LOCATION: Hendersonville, NC Airport
1232 Shepherd St.
Hendersonville, NC 28792

REQUIREMENTS: Waiver/signatures as required by sponsor and/or insurance company.

COST: $125 per driver.

REFUNDS: None (not even for weather, just too unpredictable as we have learned).

Reserve your spot here: HERE

Sounds like an awesome event. When I move back CONUS I may have to take my Z on a road trip to NC.

Viper needed a "driver mod" in the worst way.

^ don't park near the starting line! That guy was seriously slow driving a car with a wide 500/500 powerband. Oh yeah, now I remember, he said he had an issue with the tire pressure or something... Hopefully he's got that all sorted out now.

I am planning to make it thursday for the airstrip. Friday if I am lucky schedule wise and will make Fontana for a day.

Looking forward to seeing everyone, I missed last year due to the tornado's.

My GT-R is slow straight line, sharif would need to add an "airstrip" tune for me to make a play on this one. He has tuned the car to perfection for road atlanta,... which is nothing like an airstrip.

Looking forward to it folks,... toast.

I think someone would need to bring at least an Alpha 9 GTR to have a shot of prying that trophy out of Hal's hands lol
