We had a great time driving at Thunderhill Raceway yesterday with CityTech. Rob drove the ZCG 370z, Allen with his Vortech’d Z33, Ken in his ’11 WRX, Glynn in his sweet ’96 911 Carrera, Scott drove his newly acquired Z33 race car, and I had my Z33.
The weather was very wet with light to heavy rain and varying surface conditions. Some of you might be thinking that it is miserable to drive on a race track in the rain…not the case! It is just as exhilarating as a dry track day and it gives you the opportunity to really improve car control and explore limits of adhesion.
Everyone was having a fantastic time and there were close to 12 Nissans on track! You know you are hardcore when you run your DATSUN at a rainy track day…Dean and Dave S were mixing it up old-school style and…Datsuns are Driven!
We will definitely be running more track days with CityTech. Patrick puts on a great event with LOTS of track time and something you won’t find with other groups: free on track photos! Dito from gotbluemilk.com took some sensational shots of all the Nissans together, enjoy!

Today I joined a fellow Datsun Roadster owner to take a quick drive up HWY9. We started in downtown Saratoga and drove up to a vista point just past Skyline.
It was a cold day with little sunshine but we enjoyed driving our Datsuns! We were not the only ones as I spotted a red R35 GT-R, a white Z32, and a Datsun 240z screaming down the hill with what sounded like aggressive brake pads!
Datsuns Are Driven!

ZCarGarage had a multi-car display featured in the 2012 San Jose International Auto Show last week. The display was ZCG’s largest showcase of modified Nissans and Datsuns with 25 cars lined up!
370z, 350z, G35 and 300zx cars were staged together:
A separate display for GT-Rs only included an R34, R35 and a beautiful C-10 Skyline:
Lovely S30 chassis cars were also staged together:
We want to thank everyone for showing their cars in the display and big thanks also to those that helped us load/unload cars into the show!
