Happens every year....my car left BZF08 on a trailer, Steve's got it @ BZF10.....its inevitable.....but yea...I just never got into the car club thing....it always ends up being some kind of dick swinging power struggle of who's the 'alpha', who's 'playing favorites' with shows, and so on....I just prefer to be the rogue and enjoy....

I was closely tied to a Z Club then felt the need to part ways with them a few years back. I am now officially a G.D.I. -God Damn Independent- and enjoying the hell out of it.

Me neither. The local Z club wants $35 to join. They give you a bunch of discounts at places that work on Z's (like I need or want that). Plus a monthly meeting at a restaurant for a dinner (not included in dues). I just don't see the benefit. I went to a few meetings 10 yrs ago, but never joined.

Hmm, we've never had any issues like that with ours. Maybe because we are small.

I might come up to Zcon and sleep in my roof top tent if I can find a place where i can sneak it for free, or a cheap camp ground.

I've found car clubs invaluable for buying selling cars and parts. CZOT does a good job taking your dues and putting those towards track days and group events as well as helping organize get togethers. There's really no drama as far as I can tell and that's how I like it. Austin hosted ZCon just a couple years back so I expect a few of the CZOT officers will be on hand to help and I'm planning on it as well. It's going to be the closest ZCon to Texas for a while so it may be a few years before I go again so im not so bothered about the price hikes.

Will also be at Zdayz as well, hope to see you all there.

ZCOT is exceptional. (Could be the Mad Mike Taylor influence.)

That's probably more along the lines... I'll go over it with you over a beer sometime....I don't see the need to dredge up the past in public.
