Default ZDayZ @ the Tail of the Dragon - Pics

I'm pretty sure you guys all feel the same way (as well as the 189 other Z owners that came), but I had an AMAZING weekend! First and foremost, the Dragon is a road unlike no other that I've experienced. Sure I was scared sh!tless at some points on that road (Brett...thanks), but I'd drive it again in a heartbeat. Best thrills in the Z! I'm glad we all enjoyed the ride and made it out safely.

Kelly, congratulations once again on winning 1st place in the 5th Generation Modified Class and the SportZ Magazine Editor's Choice Award! Those were 2 of the most prestigious awards given out, and you snagged them both. I'm happy for you because you have an awesome show car, and you DRIVE THE **** OUT OF IT! You get much respect from me.

Hugo, props to you for keeping up with Kelly. You two are awesome drivers. Are you still tired?...hehe.

Brett and Jen, thanks for the personal Zaino session. After seeing your car, Mike's, and Dr. Bonz's, I'm going to try Zaino. Plus I need to make good use the of the DF Towels that I won . You guys kick a$$. I'm going to convince my girl to help me detail my car next time, you guys looked too cute, hehe.

Mike, you lucky sunnava b!tch . I hope that you enjoy those sway bars you won.

Well, here are the pics, in chronological order. I took a total of 139, but here are the select few. Sorry for not taking pictures while we were on the Dragon, either my hands were gripping the steering wheel (and turning white BTW), or the camera fell off the passenger seat. I had to reduce them for size purposes, but if you guys want the 1024x768 version, just let me know and I'll email them to you. Enjoy!

Jess, I scared you?
That was a fantastic time, I posted this before, but I am going to say this again...I had a great time meeting new people and and even better time hanging out with some old friends. Glad you enjoyed the Zaino 101...welcome to the light my friend. The look of your LeMans is so nice. I like the excuse of order Zaino because you have the DF towels. We will get our pictures up hopefully by tomorrow, but we will see. Again it was a blast, the gold standard.

Just a little bit...that's why I only found skid marks on my boxers.

I enjoyed hanging out with everyone as well. I hope you guys got some pictures while we were on the Dragon. That was the only part of the weekend that I couldn't capture...damn you Dragon for haven't so many curves!

Yeah I think we got some pictures on the dragon, and I think Jenny was able to get some video on Kelly's camera. He said it was kinda slow behind some motorcyles but we will see.

'sup guys!!! Man what a freakin' fantastic time that was. I will say this...we have some drivin' *****'s in our group. We pushed that road really hard and had a great time didn't we?

Anyway, here's some of the pics that I took (just a few of the hundreds). I have the hi-res versions of any of these if you want them. Also, if you want all of the pictures I took of your car or group photos, let me know and I'll put them up on the capital club server.

http://www.capital350zclub.com/index...wimages&fid=14

As for the vids, Jen did a great job filming but we're going so slow that it's almost tedious watching them. Check out the ZDayz thread in the General forum for the 100Mb vid of an unrestricted run.

Again, thanks for a really great time guys. I'm already looking forward to next years event with all of you, and hopefully some other guys from our club.

Oh, one more thing, there are a few photo's in my gallery of my car all nice and cleaned up after the long drive home with a few....adornments.

If you don't mind Kelly, I'd like a hi-res version of the following pics:

Group3
Jess3
Jess5
Jess6
Hugo4
Brett3
Kelly5
Kelly6

Your buddy's camera really brings out the colors of our cars. Also, I'd like to download the vid that Jen took. Even if it's not exciting because of those slow a$$ motorcycles, I'd like it as a keep-sake. Thanks man!

Will do Jess. Yeah his camera is amazing, and might just prompt me to buy my own SLR. Damnit.

Give me awhile to get these up on the server and I'll send URL.

This is the kind of event that vacation hours are all about. If you can make it next year, I highly recommend it. It was the best time I've had with this car.

If you don't get any vacation on your job, I recommend a new job!

Didn't you guess 189? "I am sorry you were 8 cars over" (in my best Bob Barker voice), Jess you were damn near close, good call.

Yep, 189. I guess "The price is wrong, b!tch!" (in my best Adam Sandler voice, Happy Gilmore).
