Well, this sounds interesting Ross....

Shouldn't keep many folks away but that is the same weekend as the Tail of the Dragon event (ZDayZ) now in its' 7th year. Last year there were over 200 folks for the 4 day event.

We'll make sure and post this on the NE Z club forum.

I assume that Zs will be the marque car of the kit/replica car show.....

Thanks, G-nose.
(Nice to know you monitor this site. Feel free to roam around )

Hi, guys (also girls if there are any reading):

This looks like something Kathy and I would like to do. Let's see, it is
May 22/23 in Carlisle, so obviously it is a different Nationals from the
ZCCA event in Nashville. Why two different "Z Nationals?" Is one
superior to the other? Is one the "real" Nationals?
~Rick~

Well my car not being Nissan powered is no good for this event. Rick the National Z Convention is the one in Nashville. Z Nationals I believe is EZCA event in the north east. Tail of the Dragon event (ZDayZ) is another great event and hope to make that one day.

I am assuming this is part of the Carlisle Import and Replicar weekend event?...which my Dad and I have wanted to check out for a number of years. I believe a boatload of vintage British sportscars are usually there.

Can't wait to hear more details.

Well it would be nice if others would join me there. Now this isn't the Nationals in Tennesse of course, so a little confused with the title. This is the Import Kit car show as far as I know. I've been to this many times, as well as other shows there. ( I have to find the place that had the best ribs ever if anyone wants to join) So I'm in as far as it looks. Now unlike the other show going on at the same time, you will see all kinds of other imports, don't mind the Feiro's, they are considered kit cars by some, and to me makes a very interesting show. Plus I'll see plenty of Z's at the Nationals. Here's some pics from the show 2 years ago......

P.S. EVIL Z this is just up your alley, of course your car is eligible.

Never heard Japanese cars referred to as Asian...

Asian: yes. Mainland: no. Arigato gozaimasu.
~Rick~

This looks like a fun event, and only about a day's drive away. Hope I can make it this year.

Frank

Yeah, me too, and maybe I can find out who that imposter is who has the
license plate advertising his butterscotch Z as the first one.

Yea Rick I'd thought you'd get a kick out of that. Evilz, you would be considered "Kit Car" If I'm correct that includes you. Like I said, if Feiros are allowed...........................I don't think the rules are communist, so as long as it's an import or some kind of kit or modified import. By the way Evil, I just more money down on my 350 rebuild, but still thousands away, so some day....most likely the s130 I have,and it's going to be around 400-450 horse. maybe more.
