ZATTACK 2012 Z Car Show, Nashville, TN, April 13-14

The Middle Tennessee Z Club

and

Nissan North America, Inc.

are pleased to announce that

ZATTACK 2012

will be held Friday and Saturday,

April 13 - 14 in the Nashville area.

For those who have not participated in previous ZATTACKs, we promise a fun filled two days for Z car enthusiasts, Nissan fans and gear heads in general. This is also a great opportunity to take in the sights and sounds of Music City USA, Nashville, Tennessee.

The events begin Friday afternoon, April 13 at 2 pm with a group tram tour of the Nissan manufacturing facility in Smyrna, TN, which produces the Altima, Maxima, Xterra, Frontier and Pathfinder. The Nissan Company Store offers a great selection of shirts, caps and other licensed Nissan items at employee prices after the tour. Tours are limited to 50 people, so please register early.

Friday evening the Middle Tennessee Z Club will host a catered BBQ dinner and exclusive private tour at the Lane Motor Museum (http://lanemotormuseum.org/) in Nashville from 6:30 – 9 pm. The museum houses part of the Nissan Heritage Collection, most of which is not normally available for public viewing, in addition to their eclectic collection of 150+ mainly European automobiles, motorcycles and oddities. Space is limited for this private event, so please register early.

The ZATTACK 2012 People’s Choice Z Car Show will be Saturday, April 14 from 8 am to 3 pm in Franklin, TN at the Nissan Americas building, the U.S. corporate headquarters for Nissan North America, Inc. This is a Z only show.

All registered ZATTACK entrants receive a ballot to vote for the award winners. Awards are given for all six generations of Z cars in both Stock and Modified classes, as well as awards for Best in Show, and Diamond in the Rough. Your Z car does not have to be a “show car” to enter. This is more about the people, participating and fun. We will also have raffles for products and services donated by our sponsors.

As part of the event, Nissan will also host an employee open house for their corporate and manufacturing personnel from Franklin headquarters and in Smyrna and Decherd Tennessee, and cruise-in for employees and the public to exhibit their cars which is open to all makes and models. We expect a huge turnout for this, and based on past events, the variety of cars will be fantastic.

In addition, Nissan will have an exhibit of new models, prototypes, show cars and Nissan Heritage Collection vehicles based on availability and corporate approval for public showing.

Spectators are welcome. There is plenty of parking available. The event will be held rain or shine. In the event of rain, we will move the show into the parking garage.

The Nissan Americas building will be open during the event for morning coffee, lunch in the dining room at The Grill, rest room facilities, and the on-site Nissan Company Store will offer a great selection of licensed Nissan and Infiniti merchandise for sale.

In order to give back to the community, we will be collecting cash and non-perishable food donations and the proceeds from designated raffle items will go to the Nissan-sponsored Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee, which fights hunger in 46 counties. Each dollar donated provides 4 meals!

After the show,we will have a few hours of free time, and that evening, those who wish to will meet at the Athletic Club Sports Bar and Grill at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Franklin, which is near the Nissan Americas building for dinner, and to meet up with friends old and new. The Grill offers moderately priced meals in a great atmosphere.

(2) 370Z's (one 40th Anniversary) Registered from Louisiana!!!

Robert_Nash · 01-27-2012, 01:06 PM

That's great.

When I registered about the middle of last week I was told that there were 9 370s registered; I don't know if that included mine or not...anyway; I think the 370s will be pretty well represented in 2012.

Datsun240Z71 · 01-29-2012, 10:53 AM

Nine 370Zs are registered as of today. 6 in Stock Class, 3 in Modified, including both Louisiana entries.

And the event is still 2 1/2 months away!!!!

The Nissan Smyrna plant tour is filling up fast. We are trying to add another group.

Zazupilot · 02-03-2012, 06:50 PM

NOTICE:
THE 2 PM FRIDAY NISSAN SMYRNA PLANT TOUR IS SOLD OUT!

We have added a second tour that begins at 1 PM at the plant.
We will have a group leave from the Embassy Suites in Franklin at noon for the 1 PM tour, or you can meet us at the plant around 12:45. The tours start promptly and on time.

Datsun240Z71 · 02-23-2012, 07:38 AM

We have lined up some great raffles and prizes from our sponsors for the event.

Z1 Motorsports has stepped up as usual (thanks Russell) as a sponsor and is planning to set up a display, and another vendor is bringing a 950 hp GT-R.

Hey guys - We haven't had an update for a while - what's the number of entries to date? Any new news regarding the event?

Datsun240Z71 · 03-26-2012, 08:27 PM

Everything is right on schedule and shaping up very nicely.

We have 80 cars registered (a record for us at this point), and our sponsors have really sent us some really great stuff for raffles and giveaways.

We're placing the t-shirt order next Monday, the event information went out to 7,000 or so Nissan employees over the last week or two, and everything is pretty much done as we get ready for the event.

You'll get an email from us about a week before with a few minor revisions, reminders and updates.

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Friday, April 13!

Don't know where you "heard" that information. We had 82, but two withdrew.

We still expect a number of sign ups between now and the show and walkups day of show.

There are just over 100 people signed up for the tour and dinner at the Lane Museum.

Datsun240Z71 · 04-03-2012, 09:33 AM

We are now at 97 cars entered in the show, which is a new record for ZATTACK.

We'll send out a brief update to the entrants in the next several days.

Thanks to everyone who is coming and to the sponsors and Nissan.

We are ready... the shirts and awards will be ready early next week.

Does the First Tour (2pm) meet at the Embassy Suites in Franklin also?

NEVER MIND - I found it - yes we do meet at the Embassy Suites for 1pm to go to the 2pm tour per the registration information packet I received - unless something changed, the Louisiana Z Crew will be there!!
