Zilvia Meet-Interest/Attendance Poll

With TNord's help, we found an ideal place. http://www.midamericamotorplex.com/ We were thinking of August 15-17, the place is located in Pacific Junction, IA. There's a great road course, a 1/4 mile track, a kart track, and a jet ski lake. It's almost in the center of the US (Location was a big deal for us, considering how many of you guys live in all different parts of the country). We wanted to make this a big meet, and the more of you guys tell us you're interested, the better it will get. Eight months is sufficient for planning. Please let us know if you are interested. We'd like to have a raffle, do bbq, race, and have fun. Post any other ideas you guys might have, we'd like to know what you think.

So, please, choose your option in the poll, and we'll keep you guys updated.

Thanks so much!

no, not really.

I just dont care to drive that far for a 240sx meet. Theres already a bunch of 240sx meets in Socal ..

sorry guys..

isnt there going to be a convention this summer on the east coast?

[crioten]

hell i live in st louis, you bet your a** ill be there.

we should also have skill training and crap like that for moron newbie wanna be autox drivers like me...

[nrcooled]

But I will make it happen only if it's worth it. ::50 road courses seem to be worth it:: My only issue is getting the SR out there. She would be great going out but coming back after flogging her on the track for a few hours is a different beast altogether. Maybe I will trailer it w/ my mom's explorer.

That should come to think of it. I'll be there. (Where's the damn thumbsup smiley when you need it

[HippoSleek]

Sounds like a great idea and I really hope it comes together, but it is a bit far for me.

I don't see 50 road courses? I do see one pretty handsome one though - just bring extra brakes, I see several serious braking zones w/o much cooling space.

Jet Ski lake would a lot of fun.

**edit* - Barcari's "location" rocks*

[silnv]

I am interested but I dont know if I wanna drive that far. Be nice to meet everyone though.

Total Estimated Time: 17 hours, 43 minutes
Total Distance: 1032.75 miles

not too bad... Count me in.

[guidot]

I would be very interested! Me and the woman can make it down there and we can have all kinds of car fun! Update as necessary! I will be there!

You guys kick @$$!!!

oooh bbq's and racing--- 50? wow!! gotta go to this one

[sph33r]

I think the 50 came from their about page where they make the statement

The United States is home to fifty road courses that handle professional NASCAR events as well as clubs; however there are only twenty that cater only to the car clubs, bike clubs, and focus on the recreational aspect. This aspect of non-professional racing is the fastest growing sport in the nation. It is with this in mind that MAM's designers have created Mid-America Motorplex.

But the track looks nice anyway.. I'll probably be interested in showing up.

Yup! You guys were right, of course . I think i got too track-happy to read carefully. But that's okay, I have blonde highlights.

-Irena

Sorry, all!

Edit: Well, now that I eased off the fact that someone made the world's perfect Auto Racing Complex, I read that the jet ski racing won't be open 'till 2004. Not sure that any of you wanted to go do jet ski racing anyway, but yeah...

im with negular.. except that i will be a couple of hours shorter

[DarkRaptor42]

I need to go to a meet but I can drive that far. My car likes to die on me as it is, cant drive her 1000+ miles, race than come back home. Sorry fellas have fun though.

[silnv]

If I were to go am I allowed to bring friends who dont drive Nissan. The reason I ask is I dont wanna drive the whole way by myself that would not be much fun.

[KiDyNomiTe]

its nice to know you guys are settign something up like this, I will definately have my car by then, no major mods, just a few suspension mods, and autocross experience. But you know I'll be there of course pretty close for me.

And to whoever asked about the 240sx meet on the east coast, the convention is going to be in atlanta this year, but that will be in april i think.


O ya and happy new year to you all, never got the chance to say that.

[tnord]

i think non-nissans should be allowed....especially considering i probably won't have my 240 anymore, and the guy i would bring would either have a Datsun1600 roadster or a Spec Miata.

[sykikchimp]

yeah, definately non-nissan guys should be able to come.. It's a ZILVIA meet, not a 240sx meet. anyways, what kind of money would we be talkin'?

[uiuc240]

cool!

I think I can make that happen...then I might just drive back with Mark/Irena so I can go to a wedding in Ft. Collins the following weekend. Hope my new job (that I don't even have yet) won't mind. I guess I'll just tell them during the interview!

I'll have my T28 on by then

[s14vaxlr8]

sounds good to me, im sure we could convoy about 5-7 sr and kat alone from dc metro area

[kandyflip445]

I'm interested in going...if I have a 240 by then. I should though so count me in. Is lodging up to us? Like is there a certain place you have in mind there were everybody can check-in or is it more of a "find your own damn room" thing?

[Tyler Durdan]

Count me in. Eight months to save and finally put it to Tnord (J/K)...gotta love it.

We'll set up lodging as soon as we get enough of you all to definitely be interested.

[Kareem]

I'm there as long as I can actually find a 240 that I want for sale. I'll get my friends to come out and make a roadtrip out of it.

[tnord]

we should have people put down deposits to make sure they attend, and even if they don't, we won't get effed in the butt so bad
