BTW, all entrants choose during registration the class they want their car in...perhaps Kevin should have entered his Z into one for more highly modified cars? "Nissan-Modified" or "Ultra-Modified" are for more heavily modified cars just for this reason (to allow heavier-modified cars to run against other heavily-modified cars)...thus my point about getting familiar with the judging rules. This is the 24th year for this convention running...I volunteered back in '08 to keep them going, last thing I care about is another trophy.



It's disappointing how not a single positive comment has come up about the event in this thread...and how few people on this thread actually were in attendance to have first-hand experience of it.


When was the last time anyone got to meet Bob Sharp (or for that matter - how many 370z guys know who he is to start?)? We organized Nissan corporate to help sponsor our banquet dinners...also arranged Nissan "Employee A Program" discounting on ANY NISSAN for attendees... The Coastal Z Club planned this for the past year - track event, autocross, drive to the Fort, and also secured one heck of a nice resort (the Westin Savannah - normally $300/night...for a whopping $129-$139/night).

While I realize I errored here (and admitted it now a couple times), I'd appreciate it if my integrity wasn't attacked - especially publicly. I don't make a dime to help organize these events and they're a heck of a lot of work. Anyone in a Z club can run for a position...any takers? We can always use the help...Phoenix next year and two others after already on the horizon.
