Hang out with other car clubs?

Just had my monthly Z car meet last week. Lots of fun as usual, and for the 3rd month in a row, at least one member has shown up with a 350Z! There are at least 5 350Z's in my club that I know of already!!!!

 

Anyways on with my topic. At the end of the week, I attended another monthly meeting that I try to attend.. Toronto Supra Club. They are about 50 cars.. from mild to wild MKII's to mild and wild MKIV's!! I'm not a paid member.. I just hang out with my best friend that happens to own a nicely modded 82 MKII (see my video) I attend their shows, BBQ's, cruises and drag events...A wolf among sheep if you will. flamedevil.gif Anyways.. I enjoy hanging with these guys, and they definately respect Z's and don't mind me attending their events. They are a cool group, and they are slowly trying to convince me on the benifits to adding a supra to my stable of Z's...though I have better luck at converting their members to adding Z's to their stables. (really)..I'm a very honest convincing enthusiastic Z owner tongue.gif (their words)

I like the supras in their own way, and there is a ton of mods for them. (I'll never buy one tho..)more Z's yes.. :D

I'm trying to get the two clubs together for some track events. road and drag events. Not as a competitive thing..just fun. My Z club is much older, larger, better organized, and some of their executive have attended our meetings to get ideas on how to build and run a car club. Someday we'll get it together.

 

Anybody else attend other car clubs? Anyone do "multi-club" events? So far I like the idea.. I can get my turbo/speed fixes twice as much per month...hmm maybe I should join a few more clubs? hehe.. No ricer clubs for me thou..I still have more HP than stereo wattage bonk.gif

 

No more club events till after new year..It'll be Z's on the internet only till then! Thank heaven for this site! 2thumbs.gif

I used to go to a local VW club when I worked for the VW dealership. Their cars are very simple (older Beetles and vans, etc) although they have some good custom touches. Most of the guys have bigger motors and the like--parts are cheap for them too. One guy, Rick Zavala, owns a Beetle known as "The Burglar," which was built by Gene Berg (Berg Transmissions) that used to drag race in the 1970's I believe. I think he said the car does 11's or 12's in the quarter.

 

I would be plenty scared to do more then 75 mph in an older Beetle eek2.gif

 

Good topic, BTW smile.gif
