It has been and still is recommended to join the main caravan up on Friday, or travel up later that Friday night to get an early jump on activities at Z Fest Saturday morning (registration, clean Z, etc.)

I think it is going to be a great event, I got a message form someone that is coming from North Carolina for it!

Less than 2 weeks left and last day for early registration.

Almost time. New site for Zfest http://www.zfest.net/

OK, the AutoX event has been finalized, originally it was going to be joining a current event in Deland but that was going not to be as much fun having to worry about non Z cars around so we have rented the Ocala Gran Prix track, go here for more info http://www.sfzcc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=872 Due to this change the cost has gone up to 35.00 instead of 25.00, if you are still interested but already sent in your form we can collect the difference at the event.

That is great. They are trying to have an idea of the interest in the AutoX so please go here and vote or post, you don't have to register on the forum. It is going to be on Sunday in Deland about a 30-40 minute drive NE of Orlando. http://www.sfzcc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=821

I revised the form to allow ordering of extra shirts, some pleople asked if they could get shirts for companions. One shirt is included in the price of the registration.

I know there is already another thread on Zfest but it has gottena couple of pages long and I didn't want this info to get burried. The web page is up and registration forms as well so lets start getting them in. Zfest 05 Web Page Zfest 05 Registration Forms Forum Section

OK, the web page is up and registration forms so let start getting them in. http://sfzcc.com/zfest05/ http://www.sfzcc.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=43

I made up a website but I am waiting on OK to release it, but also started a section on our forum that will serve as the official forum for listing info as we get it so I don't have to go to all forums and update just do it on one. http://sfzcc.com/forum/index.php?c=8

We have some big plans this time, including supporting the Special Olympics of Florida, email me and I will get you in touch with the local guys getting things set up. gusm@sfzcc.com We will have a host hotel and I am sure a booth will not be a problem, we had some last time.

I believe there was no limit last year just a slightly higher fee to enter if you waited until a week before the event. Last event we had the following classes for Stock Cars and Modified Cars: 240Z-260Z 70-73 280Z 74-78 280ZX 79-83 300ZX Z31 84-89 300ZX Z32 90-96 350Z Nissan Modified Any year/model Ultra Modified Any year/model Daily Driver Any year/model You guys are killing me with questions, we are 3 months away so still a lot to work out but first we wanted to let everyone know so you can make plans to attend, as more info becomes available I will post and eventually start a Zfest webpage.

Weather during that time of the year is perfect usually in the mid to high 70's during the day and the lows around mid to high 50's and only about 2 inches of rain all month!!

OK, to answer some of the questions: It is still in the planning stages but some of the things we would like to do are: Friday Friday night gathering at event site Saturday Dyno Car Show Swap Meet Tech Sessions Organized Z Cruise Awards and Trophies Sunday Autocross Last year we had about 100 registered Z's and a few others, we are shooting for 150 and are trying to show Florida can set such an event up so maybe we can get the 07 or 08 National Convention so we need everyone's support come on out.
