Default ***ZDAYZ May 18-20, 2007 - The Premiere East Coast Z event***

ZDAYZ 2007
MAY 18-20, 2007
Fontana Village Resort
Fontana, NC


We're still working out details, but we already have several club sponsors returning and have already signed four partner sponsors (these were the guys who donated the BIG ticket raffle items last year!).

Activities schedule still in flux, but we have some ideas to make the weekend more entertaining and a little less busy. Nothing is final, but right now it appears we may have a Poker Run with the last stop setting up everyone for the huge group photo (as we did in 2004 and 2005). Of course, there will be the ZDayZ Car Show on Saturday. In addition, we are hoping to work out a way to have an outdoor movie night one evening of the event. Finally, we are in negotiations with FVR and local government for another activity so big it would require adding a day to ZDayZ!!! I'm hopeful, but realistically I think our chances are about 1 in 5 of this happening. Still, it was FVR's idea not ours. We'll see what happens. If it becomes official, I will announce the activity and the extended ZDayZ dates. For now, just assume May 18-20 is a lock for dates and that we may add either a Thursday or Sunday activity.

More news will be coming as things develop. Probably will be relatively quiet news-wise through December with things picking up as we progress into 2007. Of course, questions or comments can always be emailed to

I know not everyone can do this, but it is advised you arrive early if possible. Once everyone is there the roads get a little busy. And you have to remember, they are public roads so while we are the dominant group, there are still others who come up on bikes and on cars over the weekend. Generally, if you can get up there a day or two early you can get some good driving in, then take the actual ZDayZ dates to enjoy hanging out with everyone.

Finally, a little ZDayZ love for y'all. This is the 2005 group shot. We are attempting to sort things out so we can have one of these again in 2007...

The above pic is from the year before. This past year there were almost 250 cars.

Here's two of the main threads from last year. It'll give ya something to read........about all that went on. This includes scheduled events and non-sanctioned events.

https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2009-nissan-350z/153912-zdayz-at-tail-of-the-dragon-2006-a.html

We're asking the Z Club sponsors of ZdayZ to supply a couple of their members for some volunteer work to help things out and go smoother. With the increase of cars and attendees year to year, it's been somewhat of a strain on staff. But a good strain....

Let me know if you have any questions.

Keep in mind that's it's the NC mountains in May. While it can get pretty warm during the day, you're probably not gonna be in your room at that time. At night it cools off considerably......open the windows.....and what does it matter if you pass out anyway.

BTW, for the most part........it's a sausage fest.

I'm making sure the camera is charged this year in case you're one of the ones that pass out while on the toilet or hugging the toilet in the fetal position.

Someone will let you bunk with them. We let two guys bunk with us last year. We got a 2 bdrm and if it has a couch your welcome to it as long as you don't murder me.
