SteveJ Posted July 29, 2022 Author Share #13 Posted July 29, 2022 There was a last-second contest for ZCON to win a ride with Chris Forsberg at the Little Talladega track day today, and I was one of the winners. Chris and Alex Jagger were driving an Altima drift car and an Infiniti car with each taking 3 people at a time. The drift track was pretty abrasive, requiring them to change the rear tires after each lap. My turn was near the end, and they used up the last mounted tires just before my group. However, one of the crew members took some tires to the local Walmart to get them mounted. While we were waiting (and the window to run the drift cars was closing), we were offered a ride in Alex's car with the opportunity to ride with Chris if the tires came back in time. We couldn't turn down the 2-for-1 special. All I can say is "WOW!" That was a blast. Here's the video. If you EVER have the chance to ride with a professional drifter, DO IT! 2 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/67649-zcon-2022-roll-call/?page=2#findComment-643033 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patcon Posted July 31, 2022 Share #16 Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) Don't know that I will be able to go to that one. Not sure Canada will let me in... or is that California?

If you choose the wrong one, you'll be a couple of thousand miles from the convention site. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/67649-zcon-2022-roll-call/?page=2#findComment-643135 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveJ Posted July 31, 2022 Author Share #19 Posted July 31, 2022 The ZCON 2023 website won't be live for a little while.

SteveJ Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share #20 Posted August 1, 2022 And for the folks thinking about flying to California for 2023, I can't remember where the host hotel will be, but I'm betting you'll be better off booking a flight to Ontario International Airport. If the hotel is toward Riverside/San Bernardino, you don't want to fly into LAX and drive across town. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/67649-zcon-2022-roll-call/?page=2#findComment-643152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
