Yea I know what you mean. Just trying to say you can't ticket someone for not racing; and that is the point of this style rally, to not race. What he was suggesting was that the police would sit at your end point and ticket you because you drove there. As long as you did nothing illegal during that drive, there is no reason to fear a ticket.

 

while that might make sense to you and me... to some others it just sounds like racing.

 

You can use all the logic you want, but it kinda ruins the timed aspect of it when the cop stops to ask you questions. Even if you get let off with a warning, or if he just tickets anything else, or even tickets for racing... Ruins the day and means you get to take a day off to go fight it in court.

 

Nah, fairly new guy around here. 03 Brickyard touring.

 

We dealt with it at a rally I did last year, cop pulled over a talon just because people had called reporting racing (country folk wondering what the traffic was about)

 

well welcome man!! Haven't seen a brickyard Z in a LOOONG time.

 

Thanks!

I had an SVT focus before that, and I gotta say I REALLY miss a hatch.... Can't carry anything in this Z... It's making me thinks of selling the Z after only like 4 months of owning it and getting myself into an R32 or WRX...

 

Z is a fair weather weekend car that serves no other purpose than transporting you and up to one other person.

This is a car that is so impractical when it comes to utility....

 

**** the police! Oh, wait!

 

Edit for ya.

 

Looks guys, I appreciate the input from everyone. I'm only asking for interested participants. Tara is the one that wants to set it up.

This is not a race. It's about going from point A to point B to point C within a time period that's safe. It's like making an appt and getting there on time. If you get delayed for whatever reason, that's part of the race and you lose that segment.

If you guys aren't interested in doing something different with your cars, then what's the point of keeping them? You want me to come up with fresh ideas for the club, so I'm trying.

To Millertime, the Z is a hatch. I don't get what you're talking about. I've driven to Zdayz 3 times with a weeks worth of stuff in the car. It has plenty of room.

 

dave... you keep calling it a race

 

we should have a group vinyl day where we all plaster our cars with bright colored dragons and barbwire!

 

Freedom of speech still lives!

I can call it a race, but it doesn't mean that's a bad thing.

Let's do it!

 

watching the news last night, the 200 armed agents at the new 60 million dollar FBI building in Brooklyn Center, might not like you setting up a "race" on public roads.

 

The Feebs? They're too busy patting themselves on their backs for a job they didn't do (as usual).

Race is a relative term.

So are you in?

 

I'd probably be game, might be a fun way to meet other Z owners in the area!

 

I'm down give me a date and time. I'll try to make it. How do I become a member of twin cities z club btw.

 

Also why I'm down

 

You have to jerk off and *** on the Prez. front bumper to help cover up the rock chips. Then you're in....
