Re: Nissan Pow-Wow near Foley, AL
I'm near Montgomery, but I'd be willing to head down there (provided my Z is cooperating at that time, she has her moments… lol)

Re: Nissan Pow-Wow near Foley, AL
Why not have the meat near Montgomery? That way more people would come from all over the state. It's a long drive for me to get down to the Mobile area coming from Auburn.

Re: Nissan Pow-Wow near Foley, AL
It's up to you guys for real, it doesn't matter to me. I don't mind going as far as Bham for it(or maybe Auburn?), it'll deffinantly be worth it. At any rate we can safely assume that it will take place in mid/upper AL. That being said will I will need alot of help lots of help from people that already live in/know the area that we decide on. As for the time, I'm thinking mid-june ish. theres alot of stuff that I want to do to my Z and don't know if i'll have her done by May (even though 3 or so weeks isn't that much farther away).Kira-1988 N/A T-Top- Turbo soon

Re: Nissan Pow-Wow near Foley, AL
There's some great roads around the B'ham area for scenic cruising and what not. Even Mt. Cheaha is about 1hr away has has about 25-30 miles of mountain driving, which 13 miles are on the back side with lots of tight turns, rises and drops, and steeply banked turns. I love blasting up and down the back side multiple times in the Sentra. Haven't had the Z out there yet.

I'll pitch in my .02 and say if we're going to Bham, Chuy's at the Summit is the best restaurant in town. They serve TexMex and have the -best- fajitas I've ever had!

Re: Nissan Pow-Wow near Foley, AL
Sounds great. I didn't think all this would come together so quickly. Still curious about the track but even if there isn't it's all good, cruise w/ lunch sounds like an awesome comboKira-1988 N/A T-Top- Turbo soon

Re: Nissan Pow-Wow near Foley, AL
There's Barber Motorsports Park in the B'ham area, and Steele Raceway in Steele, it's a 1/4 track.
I'm not too fond of that track. Last time I ran on it (2004) I busted my transmission in my NX2000 and had to tow it 250 miles back home to Dothan. Lots of people were complaining of the track prep that day.

Re: Nissan Pow-Wow near Foley, AL
Not fond of which track, Steele or Barber? Don't want anyone towing there babies home for sure. Track is just an idea, what we maybe could do is that the people that would like to could hit the track post-cruise and people that didn't could come and hang out or go there separate ways.Kira-1988 N/A T-Top- Turbo soon
