Didn't realize there were "groups" on here until I uploaded some pictures and saw the "add to group" option. SO, decided to make a Zdayz group Join up if you're interested!

From the main page...

Registration
Registration is the same as it has the previous two years, $60 for a registered attendee and $45 for a registered guest, guests must be registered with an attendee. There are options on our Registration Page that you may register for the entire weekend, or if you can only attend one certain day, we have registration for that as well. A change from past years, registration is required to participate in any event that has a prize, which is pretty much everything. Please help us police this, if you see unregistered participants involved in activities, feel free to find a staff member (we will be in the shirts with "staff" on the back) and inform us. We feel it is not fair for you to pay and others to sneak around the system.
I put the link part in bold.

BTW, the direct link you provided works. Thanks

I completely forgot what it was like in a Z... The two cars are just so different. I learned a lot about throttle control etc with the boosted Z. But jumping in the Lotus felt more like driving a kart than it did a full size vehicle.

VIR! I'd love to make it out there sometime... maybe this summer! I'll have to see my plans!

Yeah I need to weight it, but I'm fairly certain she is under 2800 with about 270 WHP.

^^ Nice! I enjoyed the video.

I envy the passion you track guys have. I've always been too big of a guy to fit in the fun cars like the Lotus. (At almost 6'5". I'm built closer to a defensive lineman than a race car driver. Size 13D shoes are a pain to heel-toe)

So thanks for the vid, I get to live vicariously through your multimedia.

Envy?! Come on out!! Your more than welcome at the Great Lake Lotus Club events. I've never seen a Z. Its more Lotus, BMW and Porsche (Aston Martins, Caterhams, well lots of cars) but we have some GREAT instructors. Plenty of guys who have raced semi-pro and all their lives! You really should make it out.

I am gifted to be built and tuned as a runner. 5'8 and 125lbs right now. And 125 is my fat winter weight.

Best weight reduction for a car is the driver! I never understand these Lotus guys who are over weight nitpicking on saving 3 or 5 lbs of panels etc...

But hey thats what the GT-R is for right! 6'5 and linebacker would fit great!
