I just need to get you to Sharif, he'll take care of the rest! My car may not be able to give XKR a run for the money, but yours sure should.

You may not want to do that yet. I don't think Mike has paid yet - probably having 2nd thoughts about running against me.

Guys get your payments in so we can get a roll call posted!

Hmmm...would you guys mind a lonely N/A Z joining you? I don't know if my cabin is available wed night so I might have to bum off somebody just for wed night or maybe I'll leave by myself thurs morning.

ps ~ Not signed up for the airstrip event, but definitely want to go watch.

The more the merrier. There is a NA class - sign up and run the car - no reason not to. It's so much fun to push the car on an open, straight road into triple digits!

You can just bunk in a nearby motel (the airstrip is not real close to Fontana) the night before and then head down to ZdayZ with the caravan from the airstrip.

PS. If you've got your girl with you, there are a number of very nice bed and breakfasts in the surrounding area - very scenic - they'll love it!

Hey Raj !!

I'm all in,... I'll have a weak-*** bone stock GT-R this year so I will be happily giving rides down the track but not competing for the trophy - so not expecting much but happy to donate to the cause

Hey Mike, I will bring my own helmet this year just in case you lose a turbo and I have a chance.

Hey Joe K., Cannot wait to see the M6 with the weird scientist mojo.

Hey Sandy, you are welcome to ride with me again this year for the trip from fontana to hendersonville thursday morning - I'm with you, Sharif's car is waayyy too loud ! I promise to not let my XM radio subscription expire this year so we have more selection of tunes !!!!

-Toast

I still remember riding down the strip with you in the GT-R. You said you wanted one after that. Now I def want a ride down in yours!

Please no waiting until the last minute. This year, ZDAYZ is sanctioning the event which means we need a firm headcount for planning purposes. The trophy has already been made, and we added the NA class trophy as well.

Guys definitely sign up for this! I participated in the inaugural event and had a blast! Its a great crew that shows up, so you're guaranteed to have a great time.


Unfortunately, due to work and school, I think I'll have to miss this event for the second year in a row .

The inaugural event was the best part of ZdaysZ that year. Definitely had that inaugural feel of not knowing what to expect.... thanks to rcdash's oil filter issue even some of us "NA" guys got a few runs in.

^ ha! Don't remind me. My oil filter will be nice and tight! This event will provide 6 hrs - plenty of time for everybody (NA and FI folks) to make many, many runs!
