As most of you know, ZCon is right around the corner (Sept 28 - Oct 2nd) and we have made a few changes to make this year's ZCON even better.
$25.00 People's Choice registration. - For those local to Texas that can only make the car show or even if you want to be in the show but just not be judged, we thought about helping you folks out. We significantly lowered the entry fee and threw in a free ZCON T shirt as well. This will give you the opportunity to be in the show with all your friends without the headache of being judged.
We did this option this year to hopefully bring out the largest selection of Z's ever seen at a ZCON. The car show site has unlimited space and we expect a huge turnout. The show will have a number of import magazine and TV crews on site this year doing live coverage throughout the day. This People's Choice option has never been done at a car show and we are already getting a lot of folks using this option.
Steve Millen - We've gotten Steve Millen to generously donate some of his time this year and will be attending this year's ZCON. Steve will be attending the show with his new Stillen GTR which will be on display at the carshow along with other track and sponsor vehicles. Mr. Millen will also give the opportunity to give out some autographs as well. The GTR will also make an appearance for the track day at Harris Hill as well. This is a great opportunity to meet one of the legends of IMSA and Nissan history.
Car Show Models - We have also acquired the "skills" of a local modeling agency, that we have utilized in the past for the Texas Z Nationals, who will be on site to take pics with your car if requested. The models are provided for free by the ZCON committee and just require a "please" and 'thank you" for their services.
Swap Meet - This year we've added to the ZCON roster the option of adding in a swap meet. This means you can pick up some of those rare Nissan parts that you've been on the hunt for or even drop off some parts of your own and make some money. No need to stand and there and wait for someone, we have it already laid out. You drop off your part at the secure swap meet shop area and enjoy the show or pick up something while you are there. Awesome!
Giveaways, Raffles and Prizes - We have racked up some amazing items to be distributed throught the week of ZCON. We've got limited items signed directly from Mr. K, Z1 Motorsports, AMS, Concept Z Performance, Powertrix, Jim Wolf Technologies, Exedy Clutch, SPL parts, Ultimate Z Performance, items from the Datsun heritage museum and a whole slew of other things that will go to lucky ZCON attendees.
NOS Energy Drink - NOS energy drink has stepped to be the elite drink sponsor for ZCON this year and will be setting up displays and giving out free drinks all week long to keep the momentum and energy going.
So let's recap. We are getting you wired on energy drinks all week for free, we are saving you loads of money, we are giving you all kinds of goodies throughout the week, we are giving you a place to sell some of your old parts to make some money, we are putting a pretty girl next your car and we are giving you the opportunity to meet a racing legend.
