Z Nationals 2011 Sept 23rd~24th - SE Attendee Roll Call
 

Everyone,
As most of you are aware, the 2011 Z Nationals event is just around the corner (~ 3 weeks away :eek:). I want to invite everyone here on the south eastern forum to join us and hopefully the 2011 Z Nationals event the biggest ever!

Last year we had a large crowd of the 370Z's attend along with many who participated in the track event.

For those of you who are new to the forum or the South Eastern section and not familiar with the event. I encourage you to check out the official event website @ www.ZNationals.com for more details.

Be sure to come out and meet your fellow the370Z.com forum members, check out everyone's Z's (...or G) and share some good times. Numerous board members have already signed up for the event so far and even registered for the track day at the Atlanta Motor Speedway.

For more info and updates, be sure to check out the Official Facebook Fan Page @ Z Nationals | Facebook.

If you have any questions about the event, registration, or any other part of the 2011 Z Nationals, shoot me a PM.

I have seen a few "Caravan" related threads already here on the370Z.com and on other Z/G forums, be sure to post up and discuss possible meeting locations and times. (If I recall, last year a large crew met up at the Varsity in Down Town Atlanta and rolled out together).

Just announced to us here at the shop...we have recently confirmed one of the larger Raffle Prize Giveaways for the 2011 Z Nationals event!

Special thanks to our friends at the Skip Barber Racing School for donating a Single Day Pass to one of their One-Day Racing School Classes. Useable at ANY Skip Barber School around the country!

Daily update for you guys coming at ya!

This year's Z Nationals event has just had an extra level of excitment for added....better make sure you look your best because some of you are going to get your 15 minutes of fame or MORE!

For the past few years the Z Nationals car show series has been lucky enough to be featured in both Modified Magazine and Nissan Sport Magainze. The coverage of the event has grown with each passing year with photographers like Patrick McGinnis (HKYStormFront) and others being gracious enough to photo-document the weekend.

For the 2011 event, we have arranged for even more media coverage....and some unexpected surprises.

Joining our returning photographer, Patrick McGinnis, will be David Wilks of RaceShotResources Photography. As an accomplished motorsports photographer, David shoot for multiple Grand-AM and American LeMans teams throughout the season all across the country. David's work will be featured in an upcoming episode of the Britsh version of Top Gear where they will be discussing one of his most recent photo shoots at Road America:

In addition to David and the RaceShotResource crew, we have also arranged for the 2StepCreative Film crew out of North Carolina to be present to video the event from start to end. This group of filmographers have shot many car films includign the recent ZDayZ 2011 recap:

As of last Friday, we recieved an unexpected surprise in the form of an email from Nissan North America. Nissan has announced that they will be sending a large film/photography crew to the 2011 Z Nationals event to document the event for future Nissan promotional commercials, advertisements and Facebook content. This is a great honor for everyone involved in the 2011 Z Nationals event as well as for us here at Z1 Motorsports.

A recent film created by Nissan North America covering the 2011 Z Car Convention in Savannah, Georgia was spectacular. See link below:

Here is another event for those of you who wish to get your Motorsports Fix, but do not want to go all out for the $195.00 Track Day.

The Atlanta Region SCCA will be hosting a SOLO Event in the front main parking lots (just outside of the Z Nationals Track Event). The event is open to all interested participants, including our 2011 Z Nationals participants.

If you are interested in participating, you can check out more information for the event and register here:

SCCA Atlanta Region SOLO Event - MotorsportsReg.com

You can save the $10 Single Day membership if you already have a current SCCA Membership.

I realise it took a little longer than expected to announce the NEW 2011 Z Nationals event T-Shirt, but I think that the wait is well worth it. We now have the final design done and the T-Shirts will be here next Thursday.

The 2011 Z Nationals T-Shirt features a shiloutte of Atlanta Motor Speedway Track Map, which will be used for Sunday's Z Natioanls Track Day.

Shanna (also the bosses wife and one of the many voices you will hear when you call our shop) will also be on track Sunday driving her Momentum Single Turbo'ed Infiniti G35. Keep an eye out for her both on track....and in your review mirrors (if you are driving).

who ever took those pics is a badass....................

Yes sir! You guys can credit Mr. HKYStormFront (Patrick) for the great pics above along with Jon Ruby and Kyle Barnett. We had a photography crew of 3 photographers, 1 filmographer and loads of gear setup to make this photoshoot happen. It was a great time for all of us....and you see the results.
