Anyone else planning on coming out?

Bebopin... what color is your Z? Looks like we've got a Brick, Lemans SS, and Daytona.... maybe we could shoot for all 8 if we get a few more people to come out.
Super Black here baby!

Well, if Brian SS is back from the bodyshop, that will be 5 out of 8 colors!

We need to track down a Redline, PPW, and... (I can't believe I'm saying this one)... a Chrome Silver.

It looks like Wyn, a member of the TZC, is planning on going with his Redline.

Has anyone pinged bigdaddy? I haven't seen him around lately. He would prob enjoy the meet.

Do we still need a CS? Maybe Conal (stungeon) would be able to show up with his CS if we need it to make a complete picture.

Cool! It's looking like we'll have a pretty good turnout.

As usual, Raleigh is carrying the weight of representation...

c'mon Charlotte 350Z owners!!! there's gotta be more than just Morris, Will, and I interested in these type of gatherings!

I think the real deal is that, although Charlotte likes to say that they are the largest city in NC, the truth is that the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill Triangle area has really merged into one bigger metropolis. There's more high-tech industry, more young urban professionals with disposable income, let's face it, we're just cooler than Charlotte!

Yep... takes those three cities to equal the one city that Charlotte is!

You're right on the tech professionals, tho, Brian... of course, we make up for it banking professionals, big businesses, and professional sports!

I think what it comes down is that there are more enthusiasts in your neck of the woods where it seems more of the Charlotte crowd are buying 350Zs because it is the "new" thing... give 'em a few months and they'll trade them in on the next hot cars... makes me sick!

Yes, but who actually goes to see the Hurricanes??? I heard attendance dropped drastically since appearing in the finals the year before last.

The Panthers put together an impressive win today and they have been selling out (for good reason!). On top of that, we'll soon have basketball back in town for what it's worth.

Attendence for the Hurricanes were down becasue the ticket prices were raised to the outrageious level after the playoff. After finishing dead last in the NHL, they have come back down to a more reasonable level.

Were are still trying to get a Mojor League Baseball, but the NBL thinks were are too close to Atlanta? (WTF to that though). But at least we do have the best AAA team.

The Panthers actually look good this year, I think it will be blast for those who can go see their games.

Going back to the topic, look like quite a turn out so far. Right now I may be the token First Gen owner there.

silverz...

last I checked, we were short...

a Silverstone... Brian H. has got us covered on that.

a Chrome Silver... sounds like you have that one taken care of.

a Redline... sound like the Raleigh crowd may have one or two them in mind

a Pikes Peak White... ???????? not sure where we can pull one of those from.


right now, it sounds like the Charlotte crowd is going to meet up in Huntersville around 11:00am on Saturday. The meeting location is a shopping center off exit 25 on I-77. Maybe Morris can post some exact details on the meeting location.

I'm still hopeful to have my Silverstone back from the body shop for the meet.

There was a PPW Roadster at the last TZC meeting......I GUESS we could try to contact him, but a roadster wouldn't really fit the picture very well.
