Hubby and I might be at the main race on Saturday. Is anyone down for dinner with Zoren on Thursday or Friday night?

Morbid370Z 09-07-2015 10:13 AM

Depending on the time I could be available. Would just need to wake up early. 7 to 7:30 is best for my sleep schedule.

Bump, who else is in for this Sunday's Cars & Coffee:)?

I've got our Austin370Z business cards in if anyone would like some to keep & give away, I'll try to remember to bring these

So, it looks like we should just meet up with the Doran racing crew for dinner on Thursday so more people can join in. I'm waiting for the details on where and time from Chris.

I'll do my best to make it, JARblue is in, Zoren should be in town for it as well.

Depends on the time, just let me know!

If you can't attend the Nissan Car Corral this year, please consider attending the Cupcake Meet 24 held at COTA on Halloween. You will get 2 parade laps with a passenger, speed limit 80mph, parking in vendor area, and helping a charity for $60!!! That is a steal for two laps at COTA.

All details on CCM 24 can be found here:

Hey everyone! I'm moving to Austin next week, relocating from Orlando Fl and having to leave my big group of Central Florida Z Club friends. I will be completely new to the area but have heard great things about Austin and I hope to meet you guys and make new friends as well as learn all the good shops in town as I immediately have some fenders I need to get on :) I hope to meet some great people to fill the shoes of the Z friends I'm leaving in FL. If anyone can give me some ideas of the events in town my number is 352-598-0109- Zach

You poor thing.

Capital Z of Texas club meets once a month and organizes some cruises and car shows every now and then. It's mostly older gents with older model Zs.

Centex VQ is around but it's comprised of mainly G35s, G37s, and 350Zs. Maybe a few 370Zs by now. They are a crowd of say....20-40 yr olds maybe? Host some bbqs, maybe a tech day every now and then but usually just doing cars and coffee and the occasional cruise.

There is a new VQ of Austin club. Not sure about this one or if Centex VQ merged with them.

You'll want the Z Clinic in North Austin saved in your phone book as well as Soul Speed in South Austin if you are lowered.

My understanding (given to me last night at the dinner) was that the Centex VQ was having trouble getting anyone to show up to meets so a few of them created the VQ of Austin club as a spin off.

Kaden44 09-18-2015 02:09 PM

Why poor thing, I've heard great things about Austin? Do you all usually post here in the forum of things that are happening or is there a Facebook page for Austin370's? The central florida club did everything through FB and we were always getting together. I noticed when I was in Austin a few weeks ago that there were not many modified and lowered cars. I hope mine will be ok out there as I am fairly low. Sorry this pic is so large lol

The scene is actually pretty quiet in town other than the groups that Tracie mentioned. She tried many times to coordinate meets and/or dinner on this forum with limited success. She eventually just gave up. There is no Austin FB page.

I have a garage, some tools, and a bit of knowledge working on the Z. I am happy to help with basic maintenance or troubleshooting as able :tiphat:

Makes sense. I kind of figured it stemmed from CVQ's newest members.

Austin just doesn't have a big group like CFZ. I'll post things in here from time to time but it's like pulling teeth to get a group together. A lot of Austin Z owners aren't even on the forum.

Since you'll be here in time, check out this event at COTA.

Cupcake Meet 24: Parade Lap |

Kaden44 09-18-2015 02:18 PM

Oh wow! Well I would definitely be interested in helping to organize events and even create and run as admin a FB page. I was close with Matt DiPalo the admin for the CFZC and helped with a lot of the events. I understand it may be a quiet scene in Austin but would be nice to at least get some people together for fun events.....outside of the car world :) We actually do Thursday Z meets where we go play pool, dinner, bowling..... and more, so just would be nice to establish something fun like that out in Austin.
