Congratulations to the organisers for putting together such a neat event. And also to everybody for being so friendly - certainly helps when you are an out of towner.

My only suggestion is that the day be re-organised slightly so that there is more time for the dual car sprints.

My only dissapointment was that there weren't enough S30s there - we need a better showing next year people!

I firstly like to say thank you to you all for coming along and supporting the event, especially those that came from far and wide, Willyzed = Christchurch, Mad Mike = Sydney, Paul = Rarotonga and all over the North Island. A lot of kms covered by everyone!! So many funny moments, just an amazing weekend! Wonderful to meet everyone and to see all the Zeds!!!

And of course a huge thank you to the rest of the organising crew and helpers, you all rock!!!

Another massive thank you to our sponsors of this event!!! Fabulous prizes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was incredible to see so many different Zeds there on the track and spectators too. Unfortunately I didn't get to see the lineup. Thank you Zilver for the money shot! Image

Awesome to see 4 x 350's, even if my Z wasn't one of them, but at least I had the chance to be co-driver in Dragon's bronze 350. Next year there will be more 350's I hope. Crossing toes.

Saturday's cruise was very cool and thank you to Agrozx for organising that. Great to see all the sights including driving up to Top of the Bruce at Ruapehu, hmmmmm, awesome Zeds shots. Will up load some shortly if the photos are any good.

Full stop, this has been an absolutely fabulous weekend, and hopefully more of you can make it next time.

Big cheers to the organizers for putting together this event
I really enjoyed my self even through it was short lived for my car (ripped the center out of the flex plate) all good now though (still I think I did not bad for a first timer)

Just one gripe what happened to the rest of the drags?????
(the winners paired against each other part)
As this is one of the main reasons I was there!!!


01:00pm - Drags
Short one-on-one blasts down the front straight. Runs will not be timed, but winners will be recorded and paired against each other.

well it was a time thing since I was not controlling the drags if it was to organise you into pairs that you wanted to race..

By the way the only cars you didnt go up against was madmike, Glenn, and I think it was Ultrapulse...but all in all your car hauled arse, next time we'll look @ puttng some order in the drags again it comes down to timing..I made the call to start the Sprints.
