Track time, Houston Area Z's
 
Have you ever LEGALLY driven your Z, the way it was meant to be driven?:skidmark:
Well, here's your opportunity. :cool:
We've rented the new track...Motorsport Ranch Houston, for the day. We're shooting for January 13th. This is a Friday.

For those of you that are geriatric-phobic, and think that the Z Club of Houston is nothing but a bunch of old farts (you would be sooo wrong)...this is NOT being hosted by them.:icon30: We've been invited and are just helping to get the word out. In fact the main guy drives a new Z06 Corvette....so this is not a Z specific event.

Rather than drag on about it here, send me an email to:
zcardave@houston.rr.com
and I'll get you what information I have on it (it's still being planned and depends on the response we get...which so far has been very good).

sup dave long time!!
man i would love to come out der with cha, but that is the same meet that is going down jan 13th :( . i will be at the meet instead. good luck out there! :icon38:

Gryphin Jan 6, 2006 06:26 AM

hmmm what time is the track, i might try to make both :)

TruBluZ Jan 6, 2006 08:56 AM

I need to learn to drive before I try to track the car Dave. :icon38: Wish I could make it out there, sounds like fun. If it is during the day, most have to work.:icon14: If it is at night, there is a meet planned for that evening.

Northside G35 Jan 6, 2006 05:13 PM

sorry dave, sounds fun but i rather hit up the meet! thanx for inviting though! i would like to go to motorsport ranch one day though!

zcardave Jan 6, 2006 08:41 PM

This is during the day, so that most people who work would have to take a day off (like me). Hmmm...let's see....work or race?, work or race? That's a real tuffy :icon30: :icon30: :icon30:

I'm not griping here...just an observation:
This is one of the things that amazes me the most about 350Z Owners. Most would rather show their cars, even though it's one of the hottest setups around (a nice little track-monster).
Yet the original Z Owners rarely showed up at car shows, but were at almost every track event...even though they were usually out-gunned.
I don't get it...but then again, I don't get this drifting thing either:confused:

Tru-you wuss:icon38: don't use that lame-o excuse about not knowing how to drive...you've got it in your blood (check with your Uncle). If nothing else, I'll teach you a move or two:driving:

I was hoping to get a few more Z's out there.

...plus it IS a long-assed drive for all you Dudes and Dudettes on the North Side.
MSR Houston is 7 miles North of Angleton.
That would be a pretty lengthy drive for some of you !:eek:

^^ Thats one thing I dont really like :) Anyone wanna tag along to keep me awake?

nexstage350 Jan 6, 2006 11:19 PM

wow that is a drive.

Gryphin Jan 7, 2006 08:09 AM

who wants to do a early road trip? :) haha

MethodRN Jan 7, 2006 08:43 AM

If I can rearrange my schedule I may try and make the meet and the race. I so wanna get the Z out on that new course. Let me know more details dave. I'll PM you my email address. Thanks man.

:icon18: It's not THAT lame. Actually, I can't take off work right now. I mean, I could, but they would probably kill me. We are swamped. Yes, I actually HAVE to start working for a change.:icon38: I would love to go, you know me, always ready for a race, but the timing it not good for me. Remember, we are a new breed of Z owners. Times change...

Those excuses good enough Dave?:icon44:

zcardave Jan 7, 2006 06:14 PM

Aw Tru...you know I couldn't help messin' with ya:p
Actually, I figured you would probably come out there and kick my butt on the track ! :eek:
I know about the job thing...it sometimes sure does get in the way of having a good time.
Hopefully, you (and some of the others) can make it next time.

TruBluZ Jan 7, 2006 06:47 PM

It's all good dave. I can take it. LOL!

Let me know the next time you go out there. I really would like to check it out one day.

Gryphin Jan 8, 2006 07:59 PM

Anyone from the houston area thinking about going? I am for sure going if I can get off from work. So, I will be willing to meet up with others that are going and curise up their at like 4am :) ahha

Red04350Z Jan 9, 2006 05:03 AM

I have to see if I can get out of work.

Gryphin Jan 9, 2006 12:42 PM

Lamo, I had to do the same! But I am going for sure! So, if anyone else is going and wants to join me early on friday I will be heading up to the track.

Also, I plan to make the meet here in houston that same day. Since it is at 9pm I should have no problem making it on time :) just might be a little low on gas :)

MethodRN Jan 9, 2006 02:08 PM

I'll know by like Thursday if I can make it out. I definately wanna make it out and be back in town for the meet too. Just a whole day devoted to enjoying my car. So the car may be dirty, low on gas and squealing when I hit the brakes but I'll be at that meet for sure.

MethodRN Jan 9, 2006 02:10 PM

Hey, anyone else concerned that we'll at a track w/ our nice cars on a Friday the 13th?????

TruBluZ Jan 9, 2006 05:16 PM

I'm not concerned about your car at all...:icon38: :icon44:
