Great Event, don't miss it!! Good Job Jack and Yolanda for setting this up
Attended this event last year, and it was lots of fun.
$35.00 is an excellent price.

"a special invitation to Infiniti G owners". Interesting.

Still don't know whether I want to associate with ZONC, though.

There is only 30 spaces shared between Datsun's / Z32 / Z33 / G35 / GTR's / Roadsters. That's only 5-6 of each type of cars. I know there will be at least 2-3 GTR's, that I know of.

ZONC, usually has at least 12-15 cars show up at their event, so this event will be filled pretty fast. Probably by next week.

This is the race where 3-4 different class of race cars are on the track at the same time. It's pretty cool. Go to the web for more info. It's pretty loud too.

For $35.00 per person you gain entrance to the Race for Saturday, ability to park in a corral with Zs, Gs, GTRs, 510s and Roadsters as a group. We will be located in the lakebed area instead of having to park random on the hill. It is a great value for this event that runs into the dark.

Did you see IndyCar at Infineon this past weekend? Now THAT was loud.

Last year's ALMS race at Laguna was fantastic, I doubt this year will be any less spectacular.

Hey Dave,
ZONC now includes G35's, G37's, GTR's to the club. At my annual run today, it was announced, and they won a lot of raffle prizes today. Come on and join us, park next to me, we missed you today at my annual run. This one will be fun too, after all......I will be there!!
(You're part of us here, you know that)

You guys should try to go to this. You won't regret it. Great event for $35.00 is a steal which includes entrance fee and VIP parking near the track. Hope to see some Nissan's / Infinity's there. I think you guys will be parking near our group and the Audi R8's.

Jack,
It seems the sign-up and $$ were due already. Can we still sign up? I am a ZONC member.
Thanks,
Scott

Scott, you can still order online through 10/10 for sure. Zonc is picking up the cost of the corral so we can all park together.

We will be next to the corrals for Audi, Acura NSX and Aston Martin. Go to www.zonc.org and click on Event Registation on the left hand side.

We have been assigned to the #3 Blue Parking corral.
This is on the other side of the track (west) of our Historics corral
and near "turn #5".
To get there we turn right at that "tee" intersection, go up the hill
and cross the track just below turn #6
To our right will be the Grandstands after the #4 turn. A map will be included with your tickets

Jack

Jack,
Thanks for the response. The $35 cost is per person, regardless of the number of cars in the corral, correct? I ask because we may be 2 people w/ one car, 3 people two cars, or 3 people and 3 cars. Just need to figure out which toys to bring (I know you have the same problem!)
