Three questions...

1. What if something were to happen and I can't end up going? Is this a pay in advance thing?

2. I have a stock G35 6MT with brembos. I will probably have brembo slotted rotors by the time of the event. Do I really need to do anything else to the car?

3. Can I use the helmet I use for Auto-X?

Hel-lo fellow NASCAR drivers, I shall be returning home this weekend, and the good news is, I hear that we now have some specifics about the father day's weekend in June.

Hey, where is that William, he was suppose to keep us all informed, when I was away saving the world

Definitely, stay tuned; and if you wish to join us on a more mellow weekend gathering; we have a meet coming up in Cape Cod. There will be caravans organized from NY, NJ and further south.

There will discussions and programs about and for the poconos race and camping weekend. Lots of activities are being planned, you're all invited to be part of it all.

Wow..........we are getting close to the max, and registration has not even been open to the public yet. Notice, my name, my buddy will and a bunch of others are not on this list.

Once we get the word, one of our members will pm, email you the official registration site; but we will not post it publicly to give the drivers listed above first dips.

So please forward me your email, if you have not already done so; and keep checking for the "HEADS-UP."

Is that right *****.........***** the Dolphine spoon are you floating around up there?

Absolutely, you could bring as many guests, as you wish; the participation fee for guest is $20.

Please note, those who are hovering over this message thread, but have not expressed your personal interest to experience (RACE) NASCAR’s most competitive tracks in the NE, you may still be able to join the ZGCA group at the Pocono NASCA Raceway CAR - CORRAL – A SUPER SWEET SPORT and participate in our other events, car shows, discussions on performance - 350Z and G35 , etc., etc…..to be announced.

If you sign up personally at our May 14 Cape Cod meet (check the site for more information).

The advance registration and meeting with you will help us plan for parking and your participation at the ZGCA RESERVED CAR – CORRAL



Click on picture for more detailed view

We will be using the Club Race Course (2.5 miles) both days. This is the same course we have used for the last two SCCA National Races. It is 2.5 mile road course, clockwise, with the natural bus stop chicane on the Longpond strait. This gives you a challenging infield road course with the Devils Bend, two high speed strait-a-ways, a bus stop chicane, with a second gear exit and one high banked turn. The two advanced run groups can expect more than two hours of track time.

Entry fee includes a Pig Roast party on Friday evening, all drivers and workers will get tickets and tickets will be on sale for guests at $20.00 each.

Only 25 novices(0 to 3 prior track days), 40 intermediates(4-8 track days) and 40 experienced (9 0r more days or hold club racing license). Per day.

Subject to change pending official announcement
Looking forward to seeing you at the Cape Cod – May 14 2005 BTW, you will see some of the competition at the NASCAR tracks; the super APS TT and us forgotten Super Charges.

President ZGCA

Are the stock roll bars on the 350z roadster sufficient?
