Regular cabins run about $160/night and the lodge rooms run $89/night.

Thanks for the info

I figured about $500 in gas. So what is the area called where the lodging is? Is there a certain time I should book a cabin/room by? Sorry to keep steering this thread off topic Red.

No prob. Nothing is more important than zdayz

Red--I'm not a big fan of the value proposition on the boss, at least for my goals.

I'm the same way. You can match the Boss' handling with $1500 in suspension upgrades while retaining a fully functional interior.

They dinged the 370 pretty hard for the oil and brake heating issues. As far as performance, it finished very high. But they thrashed the crap out of it and experienced brake fade (with the akebonos no less) and limp mode.

I get their point, but Z owners know that if you're going to the track, you have to vent those brakes and cool that oil for long runs, and that can be done aftermarket.

Mustang fared very well, which is no surprise to me, but may be a shock to the "SRA = fail" crowd

Any of those top 4 cars is a great value IMO.

Surprised the door quality bonus points for the Miata didn't give it the win.

Some of us had reservations for a cabin for next year before we left ZdayZ this year.
