SpeedyZX · 07-31-2010, 04:25 PM

Here's some of my favorite pictures from the car show today at ZCON 2010. I will break this up into a couple of posts. I will have a writeup later next week on my website and post link on the 300zxforums... enjoy...

Smurf blue TT:

The infamous Yugo Bernie's beautiful TT:

NissanguyZ32s TT. *sniff sniff*. I wish my TT were here at the show. Very nice TT. Tried to find you to say what's up.

SpeedyZX · 07-31-2010, 04:29 PM

The Z1 cutaway of a Z32 engine. Very very cool:

My future wife and fellow Californian ;-)

Z1 Motorports' awesome vert:

An old Datsun fire engine. Were firefighters that small before? LOL

SpeedyZX · 07-31-2010, 04:32 PM

Here's a couple of pics that I snapped at Bunganut:

Gou Gou Gou!!!!!

How about some Daisy Duke?

3rd highlight of my trip to Tennesse was Glenn and my visit to Cooters (Dukes of Hazzard Museum).

johnathanbarnes · 07-31-2010, 06:06 PM

CullPearlYellowTT · 07-31-2010, 06:47 PM

jschrauwen · 07-31-2010, 07:03 PM

Many thanks for the pics!

FlawleZ · 07-31-2010, 10:44 PM

Lots of familiar faces. Wish I could have gone this year.

**TnkrsToyCo** · 08-01-2010, 12:22 AM

Nice pictures Joe. You fly back or drive. You've got to come to Branson one of these days.

SpeedyZX · 08-01-2010, 06:26 AM

I flew out here with my friend Glenn. I wouldn't even think of trying to drive my TT here. Yeah, visiting you guys out there sounds like fun. I thought you guys woulda been here.

Not in the cards this year. Been tied up in hearings and crap on a federal case I've been working on. Still a long battle to go.

cid424 · 08-01-2010, 09:03 AM

Really cool pics looks like a great time wish I could made it..Next year I'm there...

**canyoncarver** · 08-01-2010, 09:34 AM

Nice pics. That cutaway clips looks pretty cool.

I wouldn't mind seeing more of the Branson folk at the other events - ZDayZ, ZCon and Z Nationals. Kudos to Steve and Chris for making the trek though. Hope you guys can make it to Nationals again this year.

Just had a quick peak at your site - very nice!!! Seems it's been a bit dormant for almost 5 years??

Joe's been a little dormant for a bit, you probably don't know John, but he is the most picture whorin person nearly in the history of 3zc. Great subjects and fantastic pictures ever.

Probably won't make many if any events/shows this fall John. As mentioned above I'm waist deep in a federal case that is taking near all my time and I start back to school the 23rd of August. Have hearings almost every week and a 3 day trial coming in October (was continued from July 21st). It's a million $ + case and I need to devote all the time I can to it.

jschrauwen · 08-01-2010, 12:22 PM

Thanks Steve. I love a lot of Joe's articles he's chronicled.
You'll be missed. Maybe Chris will bring Goldie again.
Good luck with the case!!!

SpeedyZX · 08-01-2010, 12:38 PM

I am definitely doing my best to find time in my busy schedule. I will update my site this week as it hasn't been touched in a long time. I really miss doing Z events and other Z related activities. Keep your eyes peeled though, I've got some surprise mods in store for my Z in the near future. ;-) well, I'm on the plane now and we are about to depart. I can't wait to get home, lug all of the shirts, hats, and other souvenirs from ZCON to my place and then do a backwards somersault with a full sideways twist into my bed.

Wave when you fly over Joe. Need to make a trip out your way too. Maybe next summer, 40th HS reunion coming up.

John, at least I am driving my Silver 2+2 today.

Yoh da man!!!! lol
Was it your vert that packed it in at BZF and that's why the 2+2 is out?
And don't tell me it's your grocery/haulin' vehicle.

Joe - Look forward to your re-engagement to your site - bookmarked.

mkspriggs · 08-01-2010, 03:44 PM

isnt that the vert that has like 1060hp?very nice cars, and that cutaway is awesome

SpeedyZX · 08-01-2010, 07:42 PM

Finally got home... now it's finally hitting me.... ZCON withdrawal. Anyone have a cure? I'm just gonna sleep now....

turtleboy · 08-01-2010, 09:19 PM

Nice pics Speedy, thanks for sharing.

Redline_zx · 08-02-2010, 03:05 PM

Looks good.
Due to z breaking on the freeway, I only made it to last 40 min. of Sundays track event

SpeedyZX · 08-04-2010, 11:04 AM

Good thing ZCON was last week. I don't know if we could have made it through all of the festivities if this week's 100+ degree weather in Nashville was there last week. I'm glad to be be back in San Francisco with 62 degree weather and a cooling blanket of fog. ;-)

Twindragon · 08-04-2010, 11:14 AM

That cut away front end is badass!

Pawkaveli · 08-05-2010, 12:21 AM

I can't even begin to describe the front cutaway. Not only is it a good idea, but it is one of the most amazing things I've seen in my life. Stunning is a term that could never do it justice.

**TnkrsToyCo** · 08-05-2010, 08:48 AM

Spencer, did you get to go to Zcon?

SpeedyZX · 08-11-2010, 02:35 PM

I just posted a writeup for my ZCON experiences on my homepage. I've finally updated my homepage after a 5+ year hiatus. I've got 5 new writeups so just look for the flashing "Newest Post" links...

Always the greatest write ups and adventures.
