Yeah all the time. Well, I hang out with a large group of very close friends, some of whom are among the early founding members of the G and Z club, yeah. But I don't really take part in the 'Club' stuff though - I just consider them good friends. The Club also hangs out every wednesday for dinner, usually at some fast food place. I don't usually go to that. Have you caught up with them before?
I've been to about three or four meets. Didn't find them all that friendly or the meets all that fun. Think we're sticking to the mini club for now.

My first one, they waved me towards them as I meandered through the parking lot looking to find a spot. It took the burden off of trying to fit in from a social point of view. I haven't been able to hang out as much as I would like, but there is good camaraderie. I've gone to fast Lap with em and helped another move. There was an epic *** heavy bronze eagle I distinctly remember. It just screamed "Murica". Hard to find good people in Vegas, or who are willing to expand their circle.

Strange you guys say that, because I moved to Vegas from London in 2010 and have made some of the best friends I've ever had here - many of them initially from the Z group.

'Hawk - you helped move Ben's stuff. Super friendly guy. Everybody helps everybody. And its a group full of all types of people from different ethnic backgrounds. It should be hard NOT to fit in.

Sorry to hear you had a bad experience Jen, sometimes the wednesday meet attracts a sort of 'outsider' forum crowd that I don't personally consider friends. Next time, look for the organizer - Token. Friendliest guy you'll ever meet. Also, I own a red Z with the plate 'Contra' - if you make it to any more meets be sure to say 'sup. Name's Mike, the group call me MJ.

I meant that as the guys are a good group of people and they welcome newcomers

I know token. Him and maybe two other are the only "friendly" ones. Everyone else just kind of considers us invisible. I gave it about four attempts I think. It just doesn't compare to the mini people. Friendliest group of people you ever met. Oh well.

I have been out a few times, but I guess they are always eating as there is never anyone by the Z's. I normally don't park in the C&C area and just walk around. I am going to try to make it out this coming weekend just not sure which car I will be taking out.

We'll be there. Hopefully see you around.

Oh, and nice wheels, Infamous. More pics after install.
