Great Lakes Z Club
 
This spring after ZdayZ a bunch of the Detroit area Z guys decided to start up a club. Our 4th official meeting is this Thursday in downtown Farmington. It's a great group and it's growing really quickly. We have folks from their early 20s to 70s and every one is a Z/G freak.

We meet monthly but we haven't yet found a good solid time and place so we have been bouncing around to different restaurants/bars. I'll make sure to update the OP before every meeting (hopefully a bit more than a day in advance next time).

MsDarla 12-19-2010 09:05 PM

How many people usually show?

sig11 12-20-2010 08:19 AM

Last meeting was a little small due to the holidays and a few folks working late. We had 7 for that one but on average I believe we're usually around twice that.

We still have a bit of bootstrapping work to do in our meetings but they're still a lot of fun.

MsDarla 12-20-2010 09:02 AM

I never knew the Inifinti G37 is so much like the 370z and the Altima Coupe is a budget version in certain ways.

I like the new Infinity G37 IPL its just as sexy as the 370z.
