ZONC Goes Autox 8/1/10!

ZONC Members:
This is your chance to drive your car in a spirited fashion in a controlled, safe, environment. Join me, NorCal UFO, ZoNC members, and other Datsun/Nissan enthusiasts at the 9th NorCal UFO autox of the year at Marina airport Sunday, August 1.

For full event details including a map, just click below:

Or you can visit NorCal UFO’s website here

I will be running in group 2 since I’m in the “OSP” class, then working group four. It would be best to simply plan on meeting up in the morning either in San Jose or at Marina Airport itself. There is a mandatory driver’s meeting at approximately 8:30, and the first car goes out at about 9am. I suggest showing up at 7:30am for registration and to walk the course. The cost is $35/driver or $60/couple, and you must bring your driver’s license. Minors with a permit may drive with parental consent. If you show up to drive you MUST work for a session as well! All the scheduling is handled at the registration desk upon your arrival.

We’ll likely drive another ZoNC event later in the year as well, so stay tuned!

Hope to Z ya out there!

Road & Track magazine will feature a track test of the BRE 240z and BRE 370z tribute cars in their upcoming September issue. A video preview of the action is below and it is thrilling to watch! The BRE 240z replica belongs to Datsun fanatic Ron Carter and he deserves a big pat on the back for keeping Datsun racing alive.

We look forward to the magazine article. It’s a great day for Datsuns 🙂

Just another example of how love and Z’s go hand in hand.
This pretty 240z belongs to a customer and recently had a photoshoot together with his girlfriend.
To her surprise at the end of the session he proposed!
                      

 

Congratulations Michelle and Christian!





ZCG Restored 240z Still Impresses

Hope everyone had a great July 4!  It is great to see Datsun owners taking their cars out to shows and driving events. It is even better when you can be part of getting these cars back on the road so they can be driven 🙂 ZCarGarage restored this pretty 240z several years ago and the owner was kind enough to send this update. Congrats Andru!

                        

  Hello Rob,
This is Andru Peters from Lake City, MN (formerly of San Jose) whose 240Z
you restored back in 2003.  I entered into a car show over the holidays and
took 2nd place in the class I entered in.  Have attached a photo, trophy and
yours truly.

Thought you’d like to know of this.
Thanks again
