The Z1 Motorsports Nismo 350 Spec Z racecar is official!

Z1 has contemplated the idea of a race team for some time and low and behold an opportunity presented itself. A Nismo 350z found its way into our hands. Between the performance builds, designing and developing new products, and shipping mass amounts of parts around the world, Z1 dove head first into this project. The Z1 Team took charge and implemented their knowledge into the nismo building a powerful, reliable Zcar meeting race specs. The car was complete a week before the first race with very little time to test and tune. The hard work put in by the team members including: Dustin McGehee, Kyle Klessig, Al Cruickshank, Rod Summers, Clayton Farmer, and tuning by Jon Parham payed off. Z1's efforts along with driving by Joe Ippolito gave us a WIN our first time out at Road Atlanta! :happydance:

After being down on power and a small spin we stilled ended in 3rd. Not bad for our first championship!
