Hello all! I have been Vintage racing a few years and just purchased a E- production 1972 240Z.

I'm in the process of converting to C-Production. Sure would love to talk with folks racing a 240.

I love the car so far -I just have a ton of questions!

look forward to hearing from you all.

Steve,

Congrats on the purchase of your race car. I don't have answers for you as far as converting your car to C production, but there are certainly many who will share advice.

I thought I'd share that I just got back from the Historic's at Laguna Seca. There were two Z's there this year. One was a 73 240, and the other was a 76 or so 280. Neither one ran in the front of the pack, but it was thrilling to see them there.

Very few Datsun's have raced at the Historic's over the years, you should apply to run there after you get your car sorted out.

I am an old Roadster fanatic, having owned several Datsun Roadsters over the years, and currently have a 67.5 2000 that I have owned for over 20 years. I was also thrilled to see two Datsun 2000 roadsters at Monterey this year. I still have a grin plastered on my face from ear to ear from two days at the track watching all of the fantastic race cars run. In one race, there were around 10 250 Ferrari's, at least 6 of them GTO's. Nothing like having $200,000,000 worth of race cars on the track at the same time!

Anyway, congrats and welcome to the club. I am a real new Z owner as well.

Z GreeK, Thanks for the reply!

I have always wanted to make to the Historic's! I watch and AMLS race there in 2000 and fell in love with Laguna Seca!

I have a Vintage Capri that raced there back in the day and have always dreamed of racing there.

I have a lot of sorting to do since I've raced a Z so we'll see!

I have a line on a roadster ultra-close ratio 5spd- I've heard they are the bomb for racing!

Thanks again!
