For those who are interested in registering for the Car Show only we are working on a separate registration site for that. Stay tuned for details.

The People's Choice Category is open to all Nissan/Datsun/Infiniti vehicles.

Just some news about the ZCON Car Show. Some people cannot attend the whole week of the convention but would like to be part of the ZCON car show. We have now added a way for you to do that. On the ZCON09 website you can now register for the car show only.

This will allow you to show your car in People's Choice category for only $25 bucks! This will get also get you a ZCON T-shirt and a raffle ticket. Again this option is only for the People's Choice category and will not get you into any other ZCON event. If you want to participate in the other convention events you will need to do the regular convention registration.

As most of you know, ZCon is right around the corner (Sept 28 - Oct 2nd) and we have made a few changes to make this year's ZCON even better.


$25.00 People's Choice registration. - For those local to Texas that can only make the car show or even if you want to be in the show but just not be judged, we thought about helping you folks out. We significantly lowered the entry fee and threw in a free ZCON T shirt as well. This will give you the opportunity to be in the show with all your friends without the headache of being judged.

We did this option this year to hopefully bring out the largest selection of Z's ever seen at a ZCON. The car show site has unlimited space and we expect a huge turnout. The show will have a number of import magazine and TV crews on site this year doing live coverage throughout the day. This People's Choice option has never been done at a car show and we are already getting a lot of folks using this option.



Steve Millen - We've gotten Steve Millen to generously donate some of his time this year and will be attending this year's ZCON. Steve will be attending the show with his new Stillen GTR which will be on display at the carshow along with other track and sponsor vehicles. Mr. Millen will also give the opportunity to give out some autographs as well. The GTR will also make an appearance for the track day at Harris Hill as well. This is a great opportunity to meet one of the legends of IMSA and Nissan history.




Car Show Models - We have also acquired the "skills" of a local modeling agency, that we have utilized in the past for the Texas Z Nationals, who will be on site to take pics with your car if requested. The models are provided for free by the ZCON committee and just require a "please" and 'thank you" for their services.




Swap Meet - This year we've added to the ZCON roster the option of adding in a swap meet. This means you can pick up some of those rare Nissan parts that you've been on the hunt for or even drop off some parts of your own and make some money. No need to stand and there and wait for someone, we have it already laid out. You drop off your part at the secure swap meet shop area and enjoy the show or pick up something while you are there. Awesome!



Giveaways, Raffles and Prizes - We have racked up some amazing items to be distributed throught the week of ZCON. We've got limited items signed directly from Mr. K, Z1 Motorsports, AMS, Concept Z Performance, Powertrix, Jim Wolf Technologies, Exedy Clutch, SPL parts, Ultimate Z Performance, items from the Datsun heritage museum and a whole slew of other things that will go to lucky ZCON attendees.



NOS Energy Drink - NOS energy drink has stepped to be the elite drink sponsor for ZCON this year and will be setting up displays and giving out free drinks all week long to keep the momentum and energy going.




So let's recap. We are getting you wired on energy drinks all week for free, we are saving you loads of money, we are giving you all kinds of goodies throughout the week, we are giving you a place to sell some of your old parts to make some money, we are putting a pretty girl next your car and we are giving you the opportunity to meet a racing legend.

Still got an excuse not to make it so San Antonio this year??????

Check out the ZCON09.com website for a bunch of more information on this year's ZCON.

Want to get more familiar with the hosting club this year? Check out Zsport.org for more details on us.

Also, remember there are plenty or caravans coming to Texas this year. Check around to see when the caravan in your area is planning on traveling here.

See you soon.

Needed to add another event. On Thursday morning a group of Z's will be traveling to Shiner, TX to tour the Shiner Brewery. After lunch they will be heading back to SA to meet the others who did the Downtown/Riverwalk tour event.

http://www.shiner.com/

In order to participate in the cruise/tour of Shiner you will need to donate a minimum of $5.00 for the City of Shiner. This donation can be given in the hotel parking lot before you head out to Shiner.

This event is being organized by the folks at TwinTurbo.net

If you were on the fence about coming to ZCON maybe this will help...I have a few track spots available:

Two in the Green Group (Novice)
Two in the Yellow Group (Advanced)
One in the Red Group (Expert)


Right now I have zero availability in the Blue Group (Intermediate) but I can put you on the wait list just in case.
To sign up please go to [ [ www.ZCON09.com ] ] and fill out the registration form. Select "yes" on the track wait list option and once you submit the form I will contact you.

I think you may be feeling a bit sick on Tuesday the 29th

You know one of those 24hr bugs. Maybe one of the models at the show will make you feel better...

Online registraton closes on the 18th.

You can register for the car show (judged) on Sunday or Monday at the convention hotel. People's Choice you can register on the day of the show (Tuesday) at the car show site which is the National Shooting Complex at 5931 Roft Road.

We will let people start coming into the show area at 7:30am to start setting up their car and judging begins at 11:00am. So just make sure you are there between those times.
