On Tuesday, April 19 NCRC will have an open track day at Laguna Seca. Come join us as several Z’s are already signed up and ready to roll! There is still room available in the 4 run groups and we’d love to see some GT-Rs and Datsuns out there! Registration info is HERE

We like running with this group and you can’t beat the value for such a world-class race track! $172 for ‘Seca is fiendishly cheap so don’t pass this up 🙂
You can see pictures/videos from our last event(11/2010) with a great mix of Nissans/Datsuns HERE

Datsuns Are Driven!

Last weekend Nissan officially returned to international sports car racing with its LMP2 entry in the 12 Hours of Sebring. Driver Lucas Ordonez helped grab a second-place class finish behind the wheel of the VK series V8-powered machine.
Nissan’s last win at Sebring was in 1994 and the the team has a busy schedule for 2011 including the 24 Hours of LeMans, the 1,000 km Spa-Francorshamps, and the Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta.

We visited the Mustang Ranch this morning to listen to Pete Brock and check out some cool vintage Fords. A handful of Datsun enthusiasts amongst high dollar Cobra owners all shared the same enthusiasm and wonder as Pete Brock told stories and described his history with the Daytona coupe and Shelby team. Brock also spent some time introducing us to his latest Superformance Coupe, complete with a fuel-injected GM-supplied LS7 drivetrain.

The parking lot was a car show with plenty of clean Mustangs, replica and continuation Cobras. For us Datsun-nuts it was also a pleasant surprise to see a ultra-low mile 1-owner 280z on the dyno inside the shop! Yes, even Ford fans love Z’s 🙂

Big Thanks to Pete and Gayle for spending time with us!
Enjoy the pictures in the gallery and LONG LIVE THE Z
