provided Phlash does not back out at the last minute..., I will also be attending this one. I need to get some track, and it will be a while if I miss this one.

Guys - I may have mislead you. It is $99 for the day if you own a Z or a G35, you have to add $30 for another type of Nissan or add $50 for any other car.

So for an RX8 you would have to pay $149 for the day at LTGP.

Sorry about that.

Why do you guys think I hang out with you instead of Z guys, most of them are the Mod type and spend way more money on their car than mine, and have no idea how to drive it, nor do they know how to tune what they installed.
Oh I don't know about that. I own an 8 but I will be driving the Z at TGPR. There are a couple of other guys that are attending that are VERY good drivers and there cars are well set up. Yeah, I am sure some of the people attending will know only how to go fast in a straight line, but not all of them.

Here is a couple of pictures of it.

I look forward to seeing all of you guys.

How much for an RX-8 with a Nissan sticker on it?

How about a 350Z with a V8 conversion and a Mustang lookalike body kit?

Hmmm, 150 and a day off work is a little different than 99 and a day off work. I may still do it, if the boss says it is ok. Might have to work a little overtime between now and March 1.

Not sure if you should let the guys on this forum know the secrets of how much faster a Z is than an 8.

Gosh - the flamming going on - and I am not the one who made up the rules on the cost. Maybe you guys should trade up for a Z than you could save $50!

Also, I talked to the guys running the event - this year they already have more people signed up than they had people show up last year. Looks like this is going to be a full event.

Fair enough, I'm out. Even though I would have been driving a Nissan coming to RX-8 boards and calling a Z an "upgrade" will probably make the event a tough sale... especially with the other options available around the same time frame.

Note: I drove a Nismo Z and an RX-8 on the day I decided on an RX-8

I may still go, I don't give a flip who drives what. Track is track, no matter what you drive.

Sorry - I don't know you, but those that do know me on the board - I love the 8's. I was just having a little fun. Now if you had an ugly gold mustang - that would be different

Fair enough, my mistake. Sarcasm is really hard to grasp over forums.

So I guess mark one up for me making an **** of myself... I'm sure I'll rack up enough of those points as time goes on.

I had hoped to have my 240SX ready and was actually planning around this event, my friend had planned to bring his (track ready) Mustang as well. But it sounds like you guys have enough Z's showing up that you don't need others to help float the base costs for the track. Hope you guys have a blast, maybe we'll see you at another event at some point.
