Apparently this will be the second Saturday every month. They have a Facebook page to keep you up to date: "Cars, Motorcycles, & Coffee". This is located not far from The Roasterie coffee plant.

This past Saturday's CM&C was the first and undoubtedly suffered from lack of promotion. I found out about it because I am on The Roasterie's Facebook page.

This 240Z is somewhat famous. It belongs to Scott Ward which he restored. In about 2003 when the new 350Z came out, Scott and HAZCC club member Joe Gillespie got together for a photo shoot at The Nelson. This one shot went virile I believe the word is. It has been seen and used all over the internet (usually to sell stuff) and one Z Club in California uses it as their cover page. Not long ago on ebay I found a wall clock featuring Scott's car with Joe's photochopped out.

BTW, it's my understanding that if/when you post photos on a photo sharing site such as Photobucket, Shutterbug, etc. it becomes part of public domain and anyone can use it however they choose.

Quick last minute question. Amber and i were thinking about taking the Z up to omaha to just kinda spend a day and hang out and maybe go to the zoo and whatnot. would anyone be interested in finding some back roads and cruising up that way?

Ethan. I have some ideas but if you're looking to do Omaha in one day, that will be a LONG day.

There is a fantastic drive north out of Council Bluffs through the Loess Hills and you'll want to hit Beebee, pretty much a ghost town but it has a bar/cafe that's very popular.

ok i think i may look into that. yea i figured it would bea pretty long day. amber just mainly wants to see the zoo

My oh my....

***** AAM Competition's 370Z Twin Turbocharger System *****

Nice but it's 10k

Just avoid the interstate. I have made that drive at least 15-20 times in the last year. You have to remember this is corn country so the roads are straight and well boring. Try goggle earth for your best options. Oh and watch out for the HORRIBLE drivers in Omaha. They are seriously bad. It's like a whole town of Johnson county drivers :roflpuke2:.

Fixed :p

don't forget BBQ meet on wednesday.

Said this bunch lately and never end up going, but will without a doubt be going to Fast Fridays this week. If others want to join, we can do the usual meet up at BWW before.

I know this is early notice but I wanted to give you all plenty of notice to join the Heart of America Z Car Club Sunday, November 2nd from 1 to 4 pm at the Armacost Museum in Grandview, MO.

If you're not familiar with "The Armacost", it is a private automobile collection housed in one of the finest facilities in Kansas City. This is not generally open to the public but is open by special arrangement. I have made that arrangement.

The collection includes everything from a Ferrari F40 to a 1919 Rolls Royce to British sports cars to American muscle cars to turn of the 20th century Harley Davidson motor cycles. Personally, my favorite part is the collection of Studebakers. The Armacost family was a Studebaker dealer in Kansas City for decades. Consequently, they have several.

If you have been there before you might think "Been there. Done that. Seen that." The Armacost collection is quite extensive and more than may be housed here. They cars on display constantly changes. You never know what you will see until you get there!


"The Armacost" has set the following guidelines:
1. No one under 16 allowed.
2. A $5 donation/admittance is required. One Hundred percent of the money collected is donated to a local Grandview charity.
3. No food or drink allowed.

Bringing a camera is STRONGLY encouraged.

More info here:
HOVER MOTOR COMPANY: The Armacost Auto Museum in Grandview is a little-known Kansas City treasure


"The Armacost" is located at :
4200 E 135th St. Grandview, MO 64030

I'll provide you with updates and more details later. More info will be made available at Heart of America Z Car Club or Heart of America Z Car Club on Facebook or my Facebook page.. Dan McConnell


This is an open invitation. Please share with your "responsible" friends, car club, organization, etc.

Thanks in advance,

BUMP on tonight's Burn Outs & Burnt Ends. Q39, 1000 West 39th, KC, MO.

^ ima be detailing on my lunch break.....she be looking good!:yum:

Loose lug nuts (50ftlbs of torque instead of 90lbs) has cost me $800 :shakes head:. So with that being said the car is at Nissan currently:mad: Oh and they gave me Versa to drive :facepalm:

uh oh! how'd that happen??

When I was trying to Dip the car, I took the wheels off. I guess I should of put more of my fat azz into reinstalling the wheels:rolleyes:

Thanks to all who attended Burn Outs & Burnt Ends last night. We had a huge turnout... almost 30 people and a parking lot full of cool cars.

For those of you who didn't come to bbq night....

Anyone going to the AutoX and Driving School in Independence this weekend?

Ill be there.

Also, anyone know anyone around here selling racing seats?

Re. racing seats, I don't know of anyone but I'm sure someone this weekend will. I wonder if seats will alter your SCCA Solo class......

Do we have anyone with a Black Z out in the Lee Summit area? Saw a really nice one out there and was wondering if it's a member of our group.

i dunno anyone with a black z in LS.

side note: Our lack of meeting up lately is terrible.... lol. lets change this

^ you missed the bbq and fast fridays last week sir.

yea. house inspection killed the chance of bbq. bachelor party killed ff. i have been slacking on my car events this year

Anyone going to the autoX in Topeka this weekend?

Seen the same one on Friday on Adams Dairy. On a side note, I'm really amazed at how many people have never heard of a Nissan GTR :icon14:. I've meet two different people in the last few days that have never seen or heard of a GTR. They looked as if it was a Ferrari or something:rolleyes:.

its your job to spread the word. heck, i've met a few that have no idea what a 370 is.

way to market, nissan...

The regular Z is hardly in any of their commercials, much less the Nismo's or GT-R's.
