Oh. For the information of everyone attending. If you are first to arrive, park as close to the restaurants/mall area as you can by the light. Security doesn't really have an issue with us when they find out we aren't trying to congregate. But last time I met some people there it was just three cars and they almost threw a **** fit. Try to stay to the edge of the lot and if they come knocking, tell them we are just meeting up and leaving right away.

Don't forget! 7:20am the train leaves! You may give the security people that time as well so they can cool their rent-a-cop heels.

Anyway. See y'all there! And if I have my way I might be in a different Z by then! :eek::shakes head::tup:

If you need my #, pm me. I will check back here the evening before and the morning of before I leave the house. If there aren't any definitive yes answers I won't stop in Hampton. Let me know!

I'm down

Voice59 04-10-2014 07:46 AM

Honestly part of me which I got the Fast Intentions exhaust...but mine doesn't sound too bad and not too many people have it. I'm hoping the tone changes once the HFC's headers and supercharger are installed.

wolfesquire 04-10-2014 10:21 PM

Ended up with the SS 12" resonator one. It was the one the guy suggested so I took his word for it. Now contemplating getting the emblems and door handles painted black and maybe even the wheels as well.

Door handles black. YES. Wheels? Leave 'em. The silver is what makes 'em pop. Black wheels are a little over-done nowadays. Just my opinion.

Tigger 04-11-2014 06:05 PM

And if you do want black, go aftermarket and leave the OEM wheels alone. Hell, I'll even buy them off ya.

Looking for non-Z/car things too?

Not a whole lot of good bars in chesapeake. Got the regular buffalo wild wings over there by eden parkway. They usually show the fights. Its nice out so the patio will be open. they have televisions out there. But if you want to ventire out, go to downtown norfolk and hit up granby street. There's a cool oyster bar off of tazewell called the Big Easy. Nice lounge in the basement and theu also show the fights. If they arent showing what you want, just ask.

theres a millions cool bars up on the oceanfront in virginia beach so check that area out. There's a Cuban place called Mojitos. Good food. Ok drinks. Nice little place. Bread pudding rocks!

Best pizza around here is Chicos.

Best Thai is either Bangkok Garden on virginia beach blvd or Royal Thai Cuisine on Battlefield blvd.

That kinda rounds things out a bit. Pm me if you have other questions.

Spec Jay 04-12-2014 07:01 PM

Thanks for the susuggestions! I'm kind of a food junkie so I'm always down to try everyone's recommendations.

Ill be at bdubs for the fight if anyone wants to swing by, first beer is on me!

Back from the dragon. It was crazy! I wish I could drive that road everyday. I'd probably need tires once a month though. Vids will go up once I stop being lazy.

wolfesquire 04-14-2014 05:45 PM

My friend is coming on the 19th, but doesn't get off work until 6:30am from duty (I think in Norfolk) so might be running a little late, but doubtful. He drives an Infiniti G37S.

I'm sure you'll make it just fine!

370G WUT 04-15-2014 09:51 AM

Hey everyone! First off I'm a G37 driver. However I am a Nissan enthusiast and love the Z as much as my G! I used to live in California and we always did G and Z meets. If y'all don't mind I'd like to participate in groups with y'all in the Hampton Roads area. I live in Yorktown and would be interested in going to the C&C this upcoming weekend. I have been before but it was a long time ago.

As referenced in a previous post not very far back we are meeting in the Target parking lot by Mercury Blvd in Hampton and departing promptly at 7:20am this Saturday. If you want to try to cruise up with us, pm me your number and I will text you when we are 5 miles from Lee Hall /Yorktown exit. You might be able to meet up with us on the way. (Done this before, kind of a pain but it can work if you are standing by close to the interstate when I text you)

I wish. I'll be out of town that week.

And besides, I put off the car search until the end of the year which likely means no track days at all this summer. Narrowed the search to a Lotus Evora, a Ferrari GTS :yum:, or maybe one of the new players if they prove to perform in the Fall. Until then, no track. :ugh2:

Tigger 04-17-2014 07:30 AM

Separate post for those that plan on joining us that have not been on any cruises with our group....

While we do enjoy spirited driving, there's the right place and time for it. That said, this cruise is not one of those places or times. We arrive together and in one piece without unwanted attention. That said, do not try to show off, do fast passes or merge frequently in and out of traffic. We all become targets by the actions of one.

Let's have an enjoyable and safe cruise up. See y'all on Saturday!

Voice59 04-17-2014 07:31 AM

Pshh...it's not a pain. LOL

I'll try to be faster next time.... In my defense it wasn't entirely my fault. And the day turned out pretty decent.

Onelownismo 04-17-2014 10:22 AM

I don't know if I'm joining on Saturday yet or not. I need to detail my car horribly and I may work Saturday morning. Not sure yet.

NotaZee 04-17-2014 01:56 PM

Hey guys. I might join up with y'all on saturday if you guys don't mind. I don't have a Z currently, but I figure a Q60 is close enough for government work. You guys are way more active over here than on the Infiniti forums. :0)

Yeah I read that post. If I can get myself up I don't mind meeting at the Target. I still got to get all this pollen off my car but I should be off work early Friday to take care of that.

Do they still have the waiver thing they make people sign on entry? I had the card they gave out a long time ago but it's been over a year.

FISH22 04-17-2014 05:05 PM

I should be at the meet up spot Saturday morning.

VABAM 04-17-2014 06:05 PM

Well, 180 needs more time on my parts so my Z will not be ready for this weekend. :(
I don't know if I'll come especially if I only have my Ion to drive. :shakes head:

Did Infiniti release the new style in the Q60 yet or it is still the G37-Q60? I hate that they did that. Made no sense. Love the Q50 and almost bought one last year. Was waiting for the Q60 (new style) and then I saw the Eau Rogue. FML. I'll be waiting forever. But yeah... feel free to join us!

No waiver. Just roll up and park. We usually get there just before everyone else. Should be a nice turn out if weather cooperates.

Fail. Drive the Ion and I will unfriend you. Like Mike said, you shoulda got a Redline. :driving:

So people know who the hell to look for, I drive a '12 Gunmetal base model.

And since it looks like we are going to have a crowd, I'll try to look for a slightly different meet up place (within the same general area) due to the fact that security might flip the hell out. If for any reason you (as in anyone reading this) do not see people in the parking lot, check this thread right away. I'll inform everyone through here what/where/when if that happens. If I find a better venue beforehand, it'll be posted. Check back tomorrow night and Saturday morning before y'all head out.

Tigger 04-17-2014 08:06 PM

Also keep your eyes on the weather! I just checked it. 60% chance of rain around the time we'll be meeting up. 30% in Williamsburg. Starts tomorrow night. So it isn't looking good.

If this happens, Sunday is looking much better so if anyone is still free or hasn't made any plans, count on meeting up in the afternoon for a drive and then coffee afterwards.

Tentatively will be set for 2pm. Wrap up sometime around 6pm.

Details to follow.

Wouldn't blame you.
I'm sick of driving the Ion. :shakes head:
If and when I get a state side job the Ion is gone.
It is not worth getting rid of or replacing at the moment.

Hopefully only one more week.
Not being able to properly try out my new diff and coil overs is killing me!
I did drive it around the block a few times and the way the Quaife diff puts down the power... :drool:
Got to play with the EDFC active a little too. :tup:
The difference between the hardest and softest setting was very noticeable!

I might be able to borrow some more appropriate wheels.
If I can I'll be there.

Tigger 04-18-2014 09:58 AM

ahhhhh. EDFC, eh? Tein?

Tigger 04-18-2014 10:05 AM

Can someone with facebook keep tabs on the c&c williamsburg page for cancellation due to rain? No. I don't have fb nor will i use it for any reason. Thanks!

FISH22 04-18-2014 10:33 AM

Yeah, I'll monitor it. The rain percentage seems to be dropping for tomorrow.

Onelownismo 04-18-2014 11:04 AM

John I've literally not had time to wash my car lol. I don't have time today either. We'll see......

I am up for meeting on Sunday for sure though. Give me further details on that when you know.

Also I concur on not ever using facebook. Have you heard the latest thing? They made it so everyone can track where you are at all times now. Of course you can opt out of it but still... what is this world coming to? No thanks, I'm not using that **** anymore.

370G WUT 04-18-2014 11:08 AM

Weather is a big factor if I get the tree sperm off my car or not. The last rain made the yellow even worse. If it falls through tomorrow I'm down for meeting on Sunday.

Roger. Seems to be the general concensus. It also looks like it'll be chily too. That on top of the threat of rain will surely kill the crowd tomorrow. No Ferrari owner will show up. We'd be better off meeting at Wawa for breakfast sizzlis and shitty coffee and having a dirty car show.

I'll say this much right now, I'm going to set up a cruise for Sunday regardless. Some have already expressed interest. Same time. 2pm. I'll post more on it later.

Tigger 04-18-2014 12:00 PM

Spec-jay, if you are down for Sunday, let me know and you can roll with me.
