I guess I've had it easy the past couple of years. I don't recall much snow in march.

I remember studying for a physics exam in college and hoping for the school to close so I can get more time. It was snowing super hard. Last year was wimpy.

LOL Last year in March, it was 80º and Spring like!

I refuse to drive my Z in this crap. Still too many idiots getting into accidents.

BTW, I'm getting a group of Z enthusiasts together for a Spring meet and cruise. Some of the guys and I have been talking about it for years, but this time we're going to have to do it! We want to get a group of us to go to Leinenkugel's brewery in Wisconsin.

https://leinie.com/Lodge.aspx#tours

For me, it's just under 2 hours to get there. If anyone's interested, just stay tuned to this thread or I'll start a new one. I just have to get a good date set and see how many of us are willing to start pulling out our toys at the end of April.

hopefully I'll have my wheels on then! I've been waiting for one of these cruises ever since I got my Z last March.

Should have come over to my house last August when we had a rally event. My wife set it up. It turned out pretty fun. She's thinking of doing it again this year.

I had planned on it, but something came up. I forgot what it was though...

edit: oh yea, I slammed the Z into a curb and messed up my alignment. I didn't get it back in time

My wife drove a route and timed it all. Then she made a chart to track all the drivers and when they reported at each check point. Winner got a cool Z trophy and the jackpot (I think it was $90). Then we grilled and ate afterwards.

We even had some ladies show up in a minivan to compete with us to try and prove they were better drivers. It was hilarious.

Well, I started a thread on another Z site and got a restaurant owner who has a Nismo or a vert to host the party. He's also going to make reservations at Schell's brewery for us.

All I need to do now is give him a good number of folks, a good date, and then we can plan on a good time. I asked him to also think of a good location for a group photo.

I'll start a new thread in this section just for the Spring cruise.

I'm down. Would 350 owners be allowed? I have a buddy with a turbo 350.
