Fellow Mid-A'ers...

2010 Mid-Atlantic 370Z Owner's Club ZDayZ Caravan Registration

I'll update this post with the list of participants and will add other Caravan details over the weekend, but for now, get registered!

Speed Limits!!!
I think I speak for all of us when I say that, as a group, we take pride in knowing that we aren't viewed as four-wheeled hooligans because we respect the law and conduct ourselves in a mature and civilized matter. Be it at our weekly Starbucks meets, our dinner events like GB Annapolis, or any other random events we may have, we always conduct ourselves in a way that reflects positively on the group. This cruise will be no different.

As nice at it might be to fly down Highway 81 at high speed, we will be obeying all posted limits and respecting the rule of law. The highways we will be travelling are very highly policed, and as a group of hot sports cars we will be attracting a lot of attention. So, we'll take it slow and enjoy the drive. 81 is a fast highway, and we'll probably be passed by numerous speeders, but relax and enjoy the scenery (it's a beautiful drive) and we'll all make it to the Resort in one piece!

Thanks for your cooperation! And now, on to the details of the cruise:


Caravan Details

Where: We will meet at the Fair Lakes Starbucks (our Saturday meeting spot)

When: Everyone should shoot on arriving between 5:30AM and 5:45 AM. We will start the Caravan to ZDayZ at approximately 6AM.

The Route: ZDAYZ Caravan Route - Google Maps

Will post up more details on where we will likely be stopping along the way. Right now we know we'll at least have to make two fuel stops. We might even throw in a third as we get closer to the Resort so we have our tanks a full as possible once we get there.

More details to come!!!

Awesome! :tup: That's cool as hell!

m4a1mustang 04-29-2010 04:12 PM

:) I know the confirmation says I will e-mail you a confirmation shortly, but right now I haven't figured out how to enable an e-mail alert when someone submits a response to the form, so I won't be e-mailing confirmations... just check here to see the updated participant list! :D

m4a1mustang 04-30-2010 10:49 AM

So maybe we're going to have a small caravan? lol

zZSportZz 04-30-2010 11:24 AM

Interesting the people from like the first coffee/dinner meet are going. Where are all the new guys I've missed while I was on travel?

m4a1mustang 04-30-2010 11:25 AM

I don't know if they are as hardcore as us. I will get on some of them this weekend to come.

Wow that sounded horrible.

Sscottfitz 05-02-2010 03:12 PM

Done -- I BETTER get my confirmation e-mail!!!! <grin>

ZCarMan 05-02-2010 03:30 PM

So who all do we have so far?

m4a1mustang 05-02-2010 04:19 PM

List updated. Should find out from Omar soon if he's going to go with us.

I'm updating everything from my phone right now so I can't do any heavy updates... hope to have the route info and a preliminary itinerary up tomorrow night when I'm back at a PC.

m4a1mustang 05-03-2010 06:14 PM

I'm adding more details. Going to post up some planned stops and other organizational stuff here tonight. Feel free to add your input!!!

m4a1mustang 05-03-2010 06:23 PM

I just added a couple paragraphs on speed limits for the cruise. I hope you all read it over and I'm sure you won't object.

We'll all have a track day sooner or later to fulfill our need for speed!

Well, I got my film protective roll from Griot's Garage today and put some test pieces on.

Let's just say it looks silly. I took some camera phone pics... will put them up in a minute.

Here we go:

So I very hastily cut pieces out and just tossed them on. Obviously there are cleaner ways to apply it, but it still won't look that purdy, but it should do a decent job... :icon18:

Sscottfitz 05-03-2010 07:51 PM

Thanks Steve -- good info and appreciate you providing a little "Pre CruiZ Coordination" -- agree 100% with your observations -- we are looking forward to the weekend.

Gotta place an order this week for my protective film -- wonder how different the Griot's Garage product is from normal 3M Cling Wrap like you get at Staples/Office Depot...... Any thoughts?


Steve (the other one.....)

Not sure if that 3M film they sell at the office supply stores is paint/clear coat safe.

This GG stuff should definitely do the trick. It's plenty thick so it should protect against small rock strikes in addition to bugs and other road grime. It just doesn't look that pretty. I know I can make it look a lot better with a little more patiences and maybe a squeegee, we'll see!

I'm definitely going to cover the entire front bumper. I will probably cover most of the hood, if not all, and then the A-pillars and mirrors. Probably a little bit of the side too.

I will probably get a lot of "WTF" looks. :icon18:

I'm actually going to have a little "double protection" going on as I already have the clear bra on, just trying to save a little time doing post arrival car cleaning. I'm ordering the large & small roll of film from Griot's tonight, should be here in plenty of time. I think you've hit all the right "bug impact spots".... I noticed from my recent trip to Myrtle Beach that the nose & side mirrors is where I had the majority of the impacts.

Cleanup should be a total breeze with this film. :tup:

Yeah -- I was hoping for a little bit clearer film but it will definitely do the trick.

zZSportZz 05-04-2010 08:21 AM

Its going to be hard to put on perfectly though, especially with my lack of patience. I don't predict i'll have the cleanest install :)

Yeah... well look at the bright side... at least you won't be the only one looking silly. :icon18:
