More pics from "The Run"

The Run” was a non-profit charity event in which all proceeds and donations went directly to this year’s chosen charity, Mary Lee's House. The non-profit charity event, started at Wesley Chapel Nissan . Mary Lee's House is a child protection and advocacy center established in 2008 to meet the needs of victims of child abuse and neglect in Hillsborough County. The Charity provides a child friendly environment for representatives from many disciplines to work together and ensure that child victims of abuse receive the services they need under one roof. The Run is an annual charity event hosted by the Z Club of Florida in Tampa Bay to celebrate the return of Nissan’s sports car, The Z. The Z was reborn in late 2002 under the new name of the 350Z. Included in the purchase this awesome vehicle was a promotional video called The Run.

The 1st “The Run” event was held in September 2003, and at this year's event they celebrated the 7th anniversary of the launch of this magnificent machine. Those who participated took part in a "Poker Run", along with a timed event that was done through a predetermined course. In their Run they route a course through Tampa Bay that was both scenic and exciting, during which all participants ensure that all traffic laws are observed. The final destination was in the side car lot at Quaker Steak & Lube, with food and a huge charity drawing with many prizes. All money that was collected from the registration fees and all drawings proceeds went to the charity.



For the last 4 years the Z Club had such an awesome turn out with 350Z, 370Z, G35 and G37 owners along with the older Z model and GT-R participated in The Run.

While driving the course, there was five stops set up at various locations. At each stop, there was a Z Club of Florida officer along with a “The Run” volunteer waiting with a deck of playing cards. Each driver was allowed to draw one and only one card which was recorded on the drivers’ card sheet. At the end of The Run, the driver with the best poker hand will won a great prize! It was not a race for the fastest time”. It was to see how accurate they were driving the predetermined course. While driving in “The Run”, each car was timed. As in previous years, The Run officers and volunteers (who did not compete in the timed event) drove the course multiple times to get an average time for which it takes to complete. This includes traffic lights, traffic conditions, obeying speed limits, etc. The participant that completed the course closest to the predetermined average (higher OR lower) won a prize!

On the way to work tonight hit something in the road and snapped the stillen front splitter on the right hand side. I guess I need to find a solution to being lowered. Either I put back on the original springs or find something like a coilover or airbag system to raise the ride height during daily driving. I like the idea of hitting a button to raise and lower the vehicle but cannot find enough info to really get a good feeling about it. Any suggestions out there.

The Tein EDFC system is the only one I know of that's actually used... Apparently either HKS or K&W was developing one, but never heard anything more about it. I thought about getting it myself, but couldn't justify $2500 for the coils and another $2500 for just the controller.

yeah I saw something like this air system but really not sure if it would be worth it. I am afraid of leaks etc and causing myself more problems than just taking the time to raise and lower a set of coilovers.

K-sport Air Suspension system?
