A few of us from Texas are going out Friday morning so we can spend all of Saturday @ Z Nationals and then head back thru San Antonio for Zcon.

Anyone coming across I20 or down I35 thru the DFW metroplex is welcome to join us. We can even put a few of you up for the night on Thursday.

PM me

Excellent! Hopefully some of the guys in LA, MS, and even from the Birmingham area can meet up along the way in.

If my funds weren't so tapped from my motor chronicles I'd join up with you guys. I was hoping a group was coming thru I20. Ya know, if you guys get hungry we have a Hooters :) What time do you think yall leave out? It's 4 hours from Dallas to West Monroe so if you guys stop for lunch let me know!!!!

Great! I know it's 5 hours to Birmingham from here so West Monore is a pretty good rest area. Just PM me when you guys have it all worked out.

I just sold my 96TT to a guy in Birmingham and wanted to hook up with him on Friday. He and his dad are going to put both their Zs in the car show and do the drags. I am thinking they would leave sometime Friday or early Saturday. We will let you know what are schedule is like next week.

We are going to tow the 95 SMZ this time around. If I can find a two car hauler I might pull both ? It looks like 4 of us will be in the SUV for a fast road trip prior to ZCON. We are going to leave some time Friday and then head back Sunday.
