    How are you getting all excited over like a 5 man meeting? Lol you must be new here. I used to get excited for EVERYTHING, but then after a while it gets kinda old, especially when you blow your motor up and can't drive the damn thing for like 7 months.

    Ask me how I know. :down

    Drove the Z yesterday. She seemed to shift fine in drive, reverse is still out though. I might limp it to Birmingham. I don't know though. Previously, it wasn't shifting into third gear either. Maybe I can catch a ride with some friends that were going to attend the meet.

    I know it's only a 5 person thing lol, but it is my first one and a guy on here said he was gonna mention it to some Z's from georgia so idk, it's not till June so we got time to grow and I'm still hopefull lol. Mine has a blown head gasket right now so I know how you feel about the not driving it. I would like to have a bigger turn out though and I know that if the word gets out there will be plenty of people coming because you don't see alot (if any Z meets towards this area of the U.S.)

    I hope you can come man, It'd be good to meet ya and have a bunch of Z guys there. However if it's only gonna be like 4-5 guys then idk if it's gonna happen cause the bad would outweigh the good. I mean I've gotta drive 3 1/2 hours just to get there…I dunno. god knows I want to though :-?

    You just missed ZATTACK 2K12 last weekend up in Nashville. ZCON always tends to make it's way to either Nashville or Atlanta every couple years or so as well. Z Nationals is usually in Atlanta every year, and then there's always Import Alliance/Import Face-Off in Atlanta/Birmingham respectively. ZDAYZ is always held at Deals Gap in North Carolina. Although there's never any Z31-SPECIFIC events that really go on, there's no shortage of generic Z gatherings that are usually happening. Locally there's a North Alabama Nissan group that meets monthly, and there's a few Z31s in the group with myself.

    If you REALLY want to open it up, make it for any type of "zetto" or just open it up to anyone with anything. There's just not enough active enthusiasts here on Z31P in the south east to get a real solid turnout. Just my $.02 though.

    Nizmo, if nothing else I'll be riding with my friends. In fact, you can stop by in Montgomery, and we can all ride up together. I'm right off the interstate so we can grab a bite, fuel up, whatever. :-)

    Is that Erv guy that's part of ARS still running the "cruise" at Little River Canyon near Fort Payne? I went with the Huntsville and B'ham group in 2010 to LRC and had a blast. Alabama's smaller version of the Tail of the Dragon.

    I believe so, they try and do them every month or two I'm pretty sure. Last one I saw any word of though was probably back in November or so. I would poke around on FB, I do remember them making events for them on there.

    It is open to anyone. Look at the other posts, someone is coming with an RX7 and my friends are coming with a Subaru Legacy and a Mustang.

    No the 87T is still in the restore process. If we bring a Z it will be the 86T and most likely will trailer it…
