April was a very exciting month! The 300ZXClub and NICOforums put together the annual Bay Area “In-N’-Out and Drive” 4/30/11. Here is Corey S with a report from the very successful meet:
The weather was perfect for this South San Jose meet, on this sunny, blue sky day. The turn out for the event was impressive, with over 25 beautiful Z32s, 5+ Z33’s, even 2 240SX’s, 2 G35’s and even a sweet z31!
Z Enthusiasts came from as far as San Luis Obispo to make this event, driving hours to meet up with the community. The event began with a relaxed gathering outside of In-N’-Out. You could feel the excitement in the air as more and more groups of Z cars drove up to the lot.
After meeting up with the Z enthusiasts and taking a few organized pictures, it was time to move forward to the next stage of the event, a drive through the hills by Uvas Reservoir. A line of 30 cars commanded the roads, T-Tops removed and hands in the air. The energy was great!
With the Twin Turbo Z’s pulling up the rear, we flew together through the twisty hills in a rush of power and handling to our next destination. Along side Uvas Reservoir, we fit our entire crew into a neatly organized row, completely dominating the stretch of road. Stiff suspension and tight clearances led to some exciting parking as back wheels were left inches from the ground and clearances tight, but in the end it was well worth it!
On the second half of the drive, we had all agreed to Ice Cream to end the day. We drove out Day Rd, flying through the banked turns to the end destination, and many were reluctant to leave. This event will be run next year for those who really liked the meet, and for the many Z enthusiasts that could not make it. Stay tuned 🙂
