I'll be there alright - as will quite a few peeps from here I'd imagine.

We need to start a list for the show and shine and also the 1/4 mile site battle - I'll stay outa the way of the FTO's on the site battle for the moment unless you need the Zed on the team.

Show and Shine:
1)

1/4 mile site battle (we need 5 cars):
1) Ms Enzo

FTOZ Ireland 1/4 mile:
1) MYfFTO (350Z)
2) PajEvo (350Z)

Show and shine is where all the FTOs park together in a line as part of the club - just make sure the FTO is clean really - its not about the mods on the car - its just representing the FTO Ireland club - as per - http://www.fto-ireland.com/forum/phpBB2 ... php?t=5838

Dan - You won't be able to do both - you'll have to make a decision as to what you want to do (I think you'd prefer the 1/4 mile tbh).

Unfortunately, the date conflicts with our summer holiday so myself and Mrs. CJ can't attend :(

This really is the best meet opportunity of the year and it kills me not to be in a position to go. I would encourage everyone who can attend to head along, FTO-Ireland made a serious impact the last 2 years, I believe we can do better this year both in terms of track performance and the number of cars on display at the show n' shine.

See here for pics of last years event.

Do your club proud and represent!

CJ

I sure am :-) even had them reworked so they'll fit on my larger diameter center pipe - last year I was running a powerflow 2" system - this yeah it'll be mongoose 2.5" all the way to the back section which is still the powerflow cans.. sadly there's a muffler on the mongoose pipe so it mightn't be as loud..

Guess I'll just have to roll down the window and shout as I drive to make up for it :-)

Just found sebs vid from last year on youtube..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB-rDyR-79g

there were other vids as well - as far as I remember...

If at all possible YOU should show up this is a brilliant event, I've gone twice and enjoyed it tremendeously each time.

Strip it out + use a pair of 16's on the front and your GR Manual might just surprise a few Mivecs. :wink:

Kinda relying on Dave, Russman and Pete to front-up (all have previously done the 1/4 mile in Limerick) - but there are a couple of other Irish Zed owners that may be interested - if not then we may have to borrow an FTO or two. :wink:

Not sure on whether or not I'll be doing the 1/4 mile again this year, depends on which car I have as now are both up for sale! If I have only the black one I doubt I'll do it again to be honest.....

And Seb, I've no real interest in doing the 1/4 mile just yet, bit of a novice. but if you want my car for it Im cool with that? Its not stripped out etc but if you think it might do better be my guest and use the GR in show and shine? I dunno, its a suggestion if nothing more...
