I was alloted 35 spaces (down from previous shows due to changes in the 1st Friday format)

5 NSXs;
10 G's;
20 Z's ... (Z's mix from s30, z31, z32, z33 and z34)


In the line up - track (actual race) and modified (slightly to show) cars!

Duno if Ive asked you this already but why NSX’s be included in the mix? I don’t mind at all, I always just thought it was a weird choice considering its predominately Nissan/Infiniti and I know you’re a Nissan nerd like the rest of us lol…

Guess im just curious as to how you made the decision to let NSX’s in particular. I think its nice, cause we have some sickkk NSX’s around the area so im not complaining about the extra eye candy haha

Fair question in light of appearances.

1st: This is my 3rd show with this group anyway (I also show with EuroSunday). But this event started life as a NSX event. I think the NSX's have been going on 5 years now.

Anyway, I heard about the show and made some inquiries. I was told that there wasn't any open dates, but there was a possibility that the NSX's might let us share their date. I was lucky that the NSX group was cool with the idea and let me have 1/2 of their spots the 1st year.

The 2nd year .. I kinda took over the organization for "my group" and the NSX group (their leader had other obligations and as I said, the NSX group is pretty cool).

This year? There wasn't as much NSX interest? Perhaps conflicting schedules?? Hence the small numbers. (As a matter of fact, I even tried to help organize a NSX only show (that would give me a few more slots for G's/Z's) .. but we couldn't organize fast enough.

So in reality .. it's a NSX show and we're allowed "in".

On a side note .. What I'd like to do, either as a separate show or maybe change the format of this one. Is an All Japanese Show. Careful selection of:
Z's, G's, NSX's, GT-R's (they were invited this year, but no interest), Supra's, Subbies, S2000's, etc.. Of course the entry requirements will be stepped up -maybe the 2ft rule (LOL)


BTW .. If (those of you in the show) would like to stage early? Before the group? This can be arranged, IF you help out with staging the cars. I'll need at least 2-3 people to help out. I've got 1-helper, but I know he'd like some assistance too)

Certain Z? Mine? Hey, being event organizer has its benefits, LOL. Yeah, with all the Z .. I thought the 510 (bada$$ as you put) was a worthwhile addition. The BRE we brought in via Gary/Joan Cook. LOL .. They inquired late in the registration ... But as soon as I saw their pics. I knew I had to get that Z in the show. That Z had a crowd around it all evening.
