Carlisle import show

[gnosez]

John Coffey was a strong advocate of the wider front stance but it's not allowed in vintage. As to the same all around tire sizes, when I asked Bob Sharp if he could only drive one of the Zs which one would it be, he choose the 260 with the 15 inch wide rears. That's 30 inches of R compound Goodyear to let you hook up quicker coming out of a turn and the ability to throw it harder in the turn knowing it would stick.

who's going for friday vs. saturday vs. sunday..?

From my experience, the typical "big day" is Saturday.

Also when you register, there is a spot for your club affiliation on the registration form. Is there one club that is kinda "hosting" the Z's at the show? Last year, there was a club there (from New England maybe?) that had asked for everyone to put them down for club affiliation, and I believe there are some benefits to all of us to having everyone register with the same organization.

So... After all that, question is... Anyone know if there is a club "hosting" Z's at Carlisle? Who should we list as our club when we register for the show?

Register under ECZN (East Coast Z Nationals). The more people who register the bigger the club tent we get. I'll be there with 5 vendor spaces of almost all Z parts. I'm also bringing my Pantera and 240Z race car to show. I'll be there tonight through Sunday. There's an auto-x on site for those who want to try some racing. Sign up early because it fills up fast! I'll be tied up at my vendor spaces so stop in and say hi!

So any post show reports? I had to leave early because of competing car shows, but I was able to hook up with Sean240Z while there. We figured out that we were both forum members, but that was the only confirmed link I made.

I did also talk a bunch with two owners with white interiors, but didn't figure out if they were forum members or not. Next year we need nametags or something...

"Hello - My Name Is Captain Obvious" Haha! :laugh:
