Anybody else get this? I recieved it at 4:33 pm yesterday. Didn't get back to my desk until 4:45. Turned in my registration before 5 and got a reply at 5:06 that all spots were filled and I was placed on a waiting list.

Yes, I received my invitation at the same time. I was on my commute home when sent and when I checked my email, I immediately tried to register and got the same response that all spots were full and I was placed on the waiting list. Kind of disappointing that they allow each invitee to bring a guest when invitees get placed on the waitlist.

:iagree:

Haha I live in Austin made a note on my calendar. Then came back and read the thread. Yeah

I got the email and signed up. It looks like I may have to cancel though due to a medical issue in the family. Hopefully my spot will go to one of you on the forum!

I will be there.. Ive been helping nissan organize the GTR owners club side of the event

Anyone who got in let me know as ive arranged a "official" NAGTROC hotel for everyone to stay at for a 50% off rate and we are doing a group dinner/ meet and greet both fri and sat night
so let me know if you would like the hotel info as Z guys are welcome to hang out. The deadline to get the group rate is 6/14. We arnt 100% on our dinner plans but those should firm up next week

It seems the invited guest can share the invitees car if they choose or they can only do the portions of the event where cars are provided by nissan. So a guest is not taking anyone's place as the event was designed like that from the start. Last year nissan did 3 GTR centric events just like this but this year they are wanting to push the NISMO brand so it was opened up to the Z crowd as well so that meant a balance of both owner groups.



The event did fill up super quick as it was first come first serve once the code went out. I think saturday alone took about 12-15 mins after the email with the code went out. Sunday was gone shortly after. Everyone else went to a wait list. roughly only half of my guys made it in

They will be doing these events in other markets so everyone who got the save the date email should sign up to get on the list for future events

I signed up as soon as the email popped up and will be there on Sunday, June 23 with the Z.

i live 10 minutes away from the track in austin. that would be cool just to go watch or drive my car on the track.

Nismo Performance Academy
 

My husband is a Nissan 370z owner and we will be at the Nismo Performance Academy. I was interested in the info about dinner on Friday night. Could you please email me if there are any open spots. We are driving up from Houston on Friday.

I'll be there as a guest on Saturday. I won't be able to drive my car on the track, but I really hope that I get to drive the GTR.

If not, then can I have a ride along, MC? :D

boost your my guest :p haha

Funny how that works. I got the invite and you didn't... now you're going and I'm not!

:iagree:

Hate the game not the player!!:tup:

I didn't get offered to go by Nissan, so I had to ask around to be a guest of someone who did (Thanks Ice). Guests are not able to drive their own cars on the track, but I'm very grateful that I have an opportunity to attend. Sorry Chris :(
