Default Obligatory Zdayz 2012 Top Dog Airstrip Event Thread

So nobody has posted about the airstrip event this year. I think it's always the best part of Zdayz.

So let the trash talking commence and let's get the ball rolling

I'm gonna have a new car that's going to take the champ down ;-)

Haha yeah last year Blackbird and I drove down from Indy just for the airstrip event, put his car on the trailer and drove back home. ZDayz is cool and all but it needs to be in a different location near a road course track so people can push their cars there instead of the dragon.

My vote would be a road course event. Maybe Atlanta Motorsports Park if it opens in time.

that video brings back memories - good memories. That was a fun day but I would still prefer a road course over a straight line run.

A 30 minute session on a road course ,... that's something completely different. Different set of goals, risk, skills, car reliability,... just about different everything.

You folks have fun this year, 2012 for me will be all about trying to beat my personal best of a 1:35 lap around road atlanta,... now that is something I am excited about this spring !!!!

Need to do much better than 1:35'ish,... just one example.

Haha it was only on a trailer because the lack of E85 down there.

I would love to run at that track Paul, but once I sell the Nismo I'll bring a car in stock form that can keep up with those GTR's a little better
