The first year I went to Zdayz was 2005. I met another Z enthusiast that was bragging about her drive from Houston and how she probably got the longest drive out of everyone. I had her beat by at least 500 miles from MN.

So you have no excuse.... :icon23:






:tup: you can dooooo eeeeeeeet!!!!

I'm in!

My friend made our reservation for a cabin today! :tup:

:vuvuzela:

Damn, you know that far in advance if you're going? I literally wait until about 2 months out.

Those days are already blocked in my work calendar!

People made reservation even before they left Zday 2010. ;)

I did! Made them on saturday this year, instead of on sunday like in years past.

if you know that only a death in the family is gonna keep you from being there, why not go ahead and make a reservation? i know for a fact that i will be there next year barring something serious happening just before. already looking forward to it! :driving:

I could easily block out the weekend with vacation time. That's not a problem. Work is the problem and can get in the way.

I made plans several months in advance with vacation slotted for the weekend. Then I reserved a cabin about 2 months in advance. We'll see about next year. :D

......bump :rofl2:

:drool:

You need a police protection to get into Z day! :roflpuke2:

hey, the black sheep is coming too!

I just registered

I am down for going! If anyone has room they don't need I like to pay for it.

Cant say if I will be shooting again this coming May as I have sold off alot of my camera gear. Sold some of my lights to Patrick on here.

Anyways, hope to get to know some of you guys before zdayz again.

Were you the Skyline group that did the massive burnout leaving the motorcycle resort? Forgive me if I'm accusing the wrong group, but about 3 Skylines did that as my group of 370Zs was pulling in and we had to deal with the aftermath (angry bikers). :rolleyes::icon17:

Yeah, we just about got lynched because of you hosers! :tiphat:

it was one skyline that did that. not all of us. we told him not to do that anymore.

sorry :rolleyes:

lol!

:bowrofl:

:tiphat:

I want in! I need some of my 350z guys to come! But I want to register now!!! Where is everyone staying? I wanna be right in the action...haha

fontana village

:yum:

The action is right there, hotel or cabin! Just call the Fontana Village for reservation.

I missed the previous two so, as of now, I can make this one. :-)

Yep, stay anywhere in the Village and you'll always have something to do or there will always be something going on. Pretty much everything is within drunk, stumbling distance....

Just stay away from the NC cabin. Surprise buttsecks happens there.... but they have great beer pong tourneys.

You won't regret it. I will always cherish the memories from my trips there.

Anyone want to spill the cost of a room? I was about to make a reservation when I said, "F--- it, let me ask."

Check their website and look at the different cabins and lodge rates. If you can get several people to split the cost of a cabin, it isn't bad. I had a 2 bedroom cabin, but there were 4 of us in it. I think the whole weekend cost me $180 or so for 3 nights.

I got to gripe about the web sites for this event:

First the zdayz web site, I guess the [nice-guy] running the site, can't update it to reflect the new year and days of the event. The only signs of 2011 is the registration (I think its closed online since I got caught in this infinite loop telling me so).

But my favorite is the Fontana Village people, truly, village people. That web site is a joke… good luck figuring out what to reserve (in less than a week).

What the hell is a "Two Bedroom Two Queens" (with a picture of the lodge and no further details)?

I think you missed my point... or I didn't express myself correctly - That's exactly the reason why I asked if anyone wants to spill a room. Perhaps 2-4 of us can split the cost of a room and knock the price down.

When is a good day to show up? I heard it's from 18-21 May 2010. Does that I mean I have to sleep over on the 17th? and leave on 22?

We left around 5 AM on Thursday this year and arrived around 4 PM. We left early on Sunday morning. But, like any hotel, I'm sure you can arrive early and stay later.

So, it's ok to arrive the first day of the event as opposed to the day prior? In that case then I can save some $$$. :tiphat:

i'm thinking about going this year.

Don't even bother going there yet. The site will not be updated for 2011 until February at the earliest. As for Fontana, just call them. They are very helpful.

It sounds like we may be making a Wednesday departure this year eh? I'm up for it if so. A couple days of driving down there just wasn't enough. ;-)

i'm debating whether to drive or fly. i'm coming from NY (long island)

Fly to VA and catch a ride with one of us! :tup:

There is no option here... You are driving your lazy ***! :hello:
