Darrly at Killboy.com meant that he was feeling bad about all the traffic on the dragon for the Z event.

I see. Having been a first timer to the Tail, was there more traffic than normal while we were there?

actually, that would be me that restarted the timer.

The Dragon, from what we heard, was more heavily patrolled because of the Wake the Dragon biker meet. Hopefully it will not be on the same week as our event next year.

wow..this thread is nutty! Nice work.

I have been catching up on work..being out of the office for several days put me pretty deep into things.

But I had a great time at ZDAYZ...this was my first one...since I just transplated myself from LA. Hats off, again, to Andy and the rest of his crew for putting this thing together. It exceeded my wildest expecations. It was also great to FINALLY put some faces to the screenames. Kshep, Dr Bonz, kcobean, WESTPAK, VandyZ, Doug, and sooooooo many more.

I will never forgot the 7whp gas powered blender that Doug (Crawford Z) had parked outside his room. I think he installed a CAI, and revised plenum...for maximum midrange trq.

Can't wait till next year...thanks again for setting this up.

Perfz, If you happen to get the video of my vette on to the computer sometime, I would really like to get some video of it. I have the white C5 that went for a run with you(and others) during the dam picture.
Thanks

Don't be screwing with my countdown clock, Kelly! I'm not ready for it to be ZDayZ '06 yet!

But I had a great time at ZDAYZ...this was my first one...since I just transplated myself from LA. Hats off, again, to Andy and the rest of his crew for putting this thing together. It exceeded my wildest expecations. It was also great to FINALLY put some faces to the screenames. Kshep, Dr Bonz, kcobean, WESTPAK, VandyZ, Doug, and sooooooo many more.
Glad you had fun, Sharif... so, how did our show compare with the bigger California meets you've been to?

I agree it was great putting faces to user names like yourself, so many people to meet and so little time.

I was just thinking about it and this online Z community is something else, I came up all by myself from down here so no local buddies and only really knew a handful of people like Pam, Jeremy and Mike personally from Zfest in Orlando but I really didn't notice it, it felt like once I knew who people were it was like we knew each other for a while, this was true from the other Z guys as well as I am on the Z32 forums also, it just makes me that much happier to have a Z, look forward to next year and hope some of you come down to Orlando next year.

I would like to thank those who listened to me, and for all of you who tore a$$ out of there, ahem, I'll be expecting a cold beer next year.

LOL I was very respectful and waited untill you told me that it was my turn to go! I'll bring you a beer anyways

I agree 100% and this is a large part of why I don't mind doing all the work to put this ZDayZ madness together. In all my years toying with various kind of cars, I've never met folks in any other car group as friendly and fun as the Z-car community! How about a big group hug?

Nice Pics Destiny.

I especially like that one of the Brick engine compartment. Very nice.

It's funny but whenever someone posts a pic of the cars all lined up in the show, the glare from all the shiny cars seems to distort the pic!

Here is one I got on Friday during the rain and one from my cabin early Friday morning in the BIG rain.

Thank you Dr Bonz!! I was thinking about kidnapping your little friend and holding him captive for a coat of Zaino but then I thought about the emotional pain it would cause you and changed my mind!!
