Default Nissan Owner's Festival 11/29 Cali Speedway!

http://www.socal240sx.org



Saturday, November 29, 2003
California Speedway - Fontana, California

Thanks to the generous support of Drift Association LLC, we are proud to present to you The 2003 Nissan Owners Festival. This first-of-its-kind festival will take place at California Speedway located in sunny Fontana, California on Saturday, November 29th 2003. California Speedway is a premier multi-purpose racetrack, where some of America's greatest racing series are hosted. Located 40 miles east of Los Angeles, it is central to many of Southern California's finest points of interest, dining, entertainment and shopping.

Our event's focus is to bring Nissan owners together and stimulate involvement in sanctioned track events. At this festival, we offer you the opportunity to participate in either a Drifting School (staffed by highly-experienced drifting instructors) or an all-Nissan meet. In addition, we will have parts giveaways, food and drinks, and special Nissan car displays. Many vendors, who cater to Nissans, like KAAZ USA, Superior Nissan, and 5Zigen USA will be out there to show you their latest in Nissan-specific applications. Bring your friends and family, you all are welcome, because after all…we all love our Nissans!

I will post more registration and driving information once they are available, as well as more information regarding vendors.

For more information visit http://www.socal240sx.org or email admin@socal240sx.org

BTW this event is open to all Nissan cars!!!!!!!!!


Registration for the car meet is now open! Check www.socal240sx.org for more info.

We are still negotiating with California Speedway; they may charge an entrance/spectator fee (usually small, under $5 perhaps). Parking is free and spectating is free...

Default Slight change to Nissan Owner's Festival event (please read)

In light of the recent fires that have consumed so much of Southern California, we have decided to change the November 29th Nissan Owner's Festival slightly.

All proceeds from this event will go towards relief efforts for the fires. Right now I am looking to have donations given to the Southern California chapter of the American Red Cross (thru KFWB 980AM). I will also set up donation boxes at the event so that people can do donations on-site.

I would only like to ask you fellow Nissan owners for a favor: Please, if you have not done so already, register for the event (either for the meet or for the drifting portion of the event) so I can figure out rough attendance levels and can calculate the amount of money we can raise for this good cause.

If any of you wish to help or want to know more information please email admin@socal240sx.org for more information. Please note that due to SEMA Show we will not be able to answer the emails in a timely manner between Nov. 1st thru 10th.

Even if you do not register for this event, please try to show up and give support to the sponsors and attendees at the event. Not only are we celebrating owning a Nissan/being a Nissan enthusiast, now we also band together in this time of need to show that car enthusiasts CARE for those that are less fortunate. The least we can do is give our support to those that have lost their entire lives in the fires.

Lastly, please check the various news sources for updates on the fires, and keep those that have been displaced in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you very much.

A couple things to add:

1) Because of the seperate administration of the event by SoCal240SX.org and Drift Association only those that register for the car meet will receive a Nissan Owners Festival t-shirt; those participating in the drifting side of the event can purchase an event shirt for a discounted price at the event.

2) Only those that register for the car meet are eligible for the free giveaways from the vendors. There will be no raffle tickets sold for these items (which are high-quality items worth a lot more than the $25 registration fee! Right now the odds of winning an item are better than 2 to 1! Sign up at www.socal240sx.org!

I'm not pleased!! I missed this thread.... I would have signed up as a vendor!! Or at least put our/my Z in the show. Instead it's all torn up for the audio/video system and I don't think it will be done by then.

Drift Association (www.driftday.com) has many practice events so check on their site for more information.

The drifting side of the event filled up in less than a week, which was why we kept pushing people to sign up early!

Default I registered my Car at 11/29 Show

I registered my N/A 350Z, and will be at the 11/29 Nissan Show at California Speedway.

I'll bring some canned food for the food bank, but have to get them out of the car as soon as I get there (they add weight, ya know -- lol).

See you there.
