another May has almost come and gone which means ZdayZ! for those who haven't seen anything about it before, ZdayZ is a 3 day festival for everything Z, G, and GTR related set on the backdrop of some of the most beautiful parts of the country in the far west mountains of North Carolina near the Tennessee boarder. ZdayZ is known for it's great driving roads during the day and it's should-be-illegal levels of partying in the evenings. this year was the best yet that i've been to thus far. there were well over 700 registered participants. tens of thousands of dollars worth of giveaways. there was even a 5K/10K run/walk event for charity. it's one of the big events i look forward to every year and i already can't wait for next year! now, on to the pictures...

friday's album: ZdayZ '13 - Friday 5/17/13 - JPMcG Photography

saturday's album: ZdayZ '13 - Saturday 5/18/13 - JPMcG Photography

friday fav's:

1. the 10K'ers seemed to be more enthusiastic about the walking part than the running part


2. the morning light provided some great colors


3. Nissan brought out a Juke-R for ZdayZ this year, the first time it'd been shown publicly in the US


4. my good friend Andy asked me for this one shot on the dam before we left and I thought it turned out pretty good


saturday fav's:

5. it was raining saturday morning when we were doing the car show pictures but we worked through it. this poor Z had the misfortune of a biker coming across their lane after losing control and hitting the front of their car. luckily no one was hurt (except maybe the biker's pride)


6. Russ and Jon@Z1 enjoying a quick "pull this over there" drive in the Juke-R


7. DAMNFOTO!


8. in the exhaust competition, if you lose traction, you are disqualified. nick decided that since he's got over 1000whp from his twin turbo LS2 powered 350z, why not go out in style?


thanks for looking, be sure to check out the albums. there's a lot more to see from ZdayZ. although it's a car event, it's really about the people. this year really proved that for me in a lot of ways.

 

I wish I was there this year....

 

I love that Juke-R. There is something about it.

 

I had the key to it for the weekend. Let's just say, it was fun, but cramped.

 

you are my hero russ...

 

hahaha

 

Great pics. That Juke-R looks mean.

 

i wasn't a "hater" at first but i was kinda meh on it. to see it in person, especially the build of it, it's pretty impressive

 

So When does zday.com actually release the photos it has for the 2013 gallery section on their website?

 

This event looks amazing

 

you should make it next year then!

photos should go up soon. they are talking about redoing the website so they may wait for that. we'll see. i haven't given my pictures to bryan on disc yet but i may do it via drop box instead
