Coming from you, given the car you have, that is one of the biggest compliments I could receive. Thank you very much. I have learned an incredible amount about car care from you, so I guess in some part, I have you to thank.
Thanks also for taking time to do the demos on Friday and Saturday. I attended on Friday and learned a thing or two there as well. It was time well spent.
You truly are a Zaino Master.

I understand there was a pic taken of all the Bricks together (minus mine because I was on top of Fontana Dam taking pics down at the group). Can someone post/send me a copy of that photo?

Can you see Bob?
Can anyone see Bob in this Pic? If you focus on Bob's nametag for just three minutes, you will be able to see the Z-car!
Thanks again Morris and McDuck. I know this weekend was a dream come true for you two guys. It was the best Z event I have ever experienced.
I saw alot of my friends there having too much fun! One NC tag read "2MANYZS" ...No Such Thing! You know, Sorta like a girl too pretty or too much money.
Speaking of a "girl too pretty", I suggest we invite Shelly back next as the official ZDAYZ Sweetheart. I ain't never seen but one girl purtier than her!
I can remember your frustrations when money, time, and lots of efforts were expended for the no-shows (and once for the "show but no-go"). Good Job on a well organized event. I'm glad to see you linked up with the Z-heritage.
Next year, I'm plannin on "dragon" the wife through the mountains by the hair! Gonna buy her some-o-that Drammamine stuff

???SHIRT???
I'll see if I can slap together a blender between now and next time. I might have to make a 200 volt battery operated one though. 15,000RPM brushless DC motor. Shoulf take about 3 seconds to mix it at that speed.
??? WHAT SHIRT ???

The sponsors were very generous - want to thank ZEETOYS in particular as I won a set of his caps, but you are all awesome for contributing. Also want to thank Brian for the ride of my life; Bigsexxy gave me a pretty good ride too so thanks Jeff. 360 days until ZdayZ 2006! WooHoo.
To all of those who I promised rides and didn't deliver (Destiny, Stacy, and a few others I can't remember right now) I appologize, I only got three runs on the dragon, none of which were close to my record. Next year, I'll go up Tuesday or Wensday to get some seat time in. Andy and Morris are slave drivers, well not really.
I'll think of some really nice words for some individuals who helped me personally over the weekend after a nights sleep.

Well guys, I got some good news & bad news...
The Good News:
The good news is that I got all my pictures up on my webspace where I work. I made an album for you guys to check it out. Blame the blurry Tail shots on my brother. He said the curves on the Tail were too much for him to take clear pictures.
Click here!
The Bad News:
As for the bad news... I recalled Doug (from Crawford Z) telling us about how the cops were talking about 2 fatalities during the weekend. We didn't know whether to believe they were true or not but one of the fatalities ends up being true. Yesterday, my neighbor saw me cleaning my car and I told him about the weekend. He said there was a fatality down there. In was in our local newspaper on Monday about a Lexington police officer who was killed near the FVR area while taking riding his motorcycle. Here's the link to the local newspaper. That sucks...

ZDayZ notes...
I officially make Bryan (Lightning Guy) an honory Z owner... he comes to more Z events than Lightning events, I think!
Bryan, we'll get to work on those magnetic Z emblems so you can put them on and take them off the sloe truck... may even let you enter the show next year. 
Robert... unless I screw up really bad, Shelley will be back next year and will be bringing friends. I think I'm going to have to order up some ZDayZ GirlZ shirts for some of our 'assistants'.
I've heard there was a LOT of po-po on the Dragon over the weekend. I apologize for that. Apparently it wasn't us... they were heavily patrolling because of the Wakin' the Dragon bike rally. Already trying to find out about next year from Ron Johnson (of www.tailofthedragon.com) to see if we can avoid the same scheduling conflict next year.
Not to take away anything from Kelly (kcobean) who has a very nice car, but I do want to mention a few other cars because we feel we really gave out 3 best in show award this year. We had the SPort Z Publisher's Choice which essentially is their BiS choice, which Kelly won with his awesome looking Redline 350Z. We also have the Peoples Choice BiS which all entrants selected. I like this one because it is selection by your peers. This was won by Mike Twitty, Sr's red 300ZX. Finally we had the "What's Hot in the Streets", which was kind of a staff BiS choice and was one by DrBonz beautiful Brickyard 350Z. We'll get the full list of award winners posted up on our website soon with pics of them receiving their awards from Shelley, who I maybe should be calling Ms. ZDayZ, and if we have them, pics of their winning cars!
