The Z was fun for the last 3 years I just can't afford to keep it and another car.
damn, sorry to hear that. ill have to wait on the skyline then. lol.

So do we go as the Metro Detroit Z Club or do we go alone? Does it matter to any one if we have our area on the list of those clubs Sponsoring the Zdayz 2006 event? I need to know so I can send in the check to put us on the map.

I think it is even cheaper for clubs to sponsor this year, an even 100.00 covers the name posted on all zdayz goods. But my concern is not the money but the group behind the money. The support of events we will have to be a part of the entire envolvement Andy is hoping for.

LOL!! Trent careful?!!? im just playing... yah... the first time I did the dragon was with my Xfire during the middle of the week... no one really out there! And since I just started autocrossing that year I thought I was hot ****... the dragon scared the crap outta me about half way lol... Clint my passenger too! LOL
So I vowed to go back and do it better... so I came back last year with the Z no suspension other then crawford strut... LOVED IT!!

I pulled outta Fontana with a beautiful datsun 240 and I didnt wanna be shunned by the guy... so I let him take the lead and I followed him... a completely STRIPPED datsun racing car... SCARY!!! of course I couldnt keep up with him without extremely late braking! I pushed the brakes soooo hard that I melted my outer edges of my pads and my brakes were actually on fire! LOL ... I pulled over with the datsun to talk and he was like "hey nice ca... your car is on fire!" lol... it was BAD ***!! but there was one time I got a little dumb without camber and got some heavy understeer coming down hill so I had to blip the throttle to kick the rear end out... otherwise my *** would have been in the ditch

GREAT times though! I definately know you will love it bro... I'm just saying BECAREFUL!!! People actually prep their cars to go on the dragon with certain cambers and toeing... that sorta thing... its sick The mini's and miata's are scary out there!!!

BUT!!! The single craziest isnt the bikes... its this guy "scott" I think... he owns a Ford Lightning... I know your thinking a pickup truck LOL!!

Doug Crawford couldnt keep up with him... no one could... he lives there and he's the best... I think it was Gerry that was telling me the story about how he took a few people with him on a trip through and they vomitted!

He tripods a ****ing pickup on the dragon!!!!
