Are you referring to the 2007 ZCCA National Convention in Daytona?

Hey, that's around the time of year we take our semi-annual jaunt to visit the Parents/In-Laws/Take the kids to Disney...it's possible I can make this.

We'll see - awaiting details.

The pieces are begining to fall into place in our hastily assembled plan. We think we can get 100 cars under 50,000 square feet of roof along with a great deal of outside space to work with. Here is the first parking plan.

The building overlooks a lake, providing a real nice setting for having your car photographed and an arrangement has been made with a photographer to shoot cars and make prints on location. I am going up to Tampa this morning to talk to a guy about bringing his dyno to the event. Our dealer / sponsor, Reed Motors, will be asked to set up a display of current Nissan vehicles - especially their "Bottom Line" sales campaign. Their will be exhibits for cleaning and polishing, "clear-bra" protection applications, and Datsun / Nissan apparel for the fashion minded. Several seminars are planned for topics concerning car show judging and club sponsorship activities.

More news from the developing event plan. On-line registration is now open at www.flza.com and we are moving forward with that software.

Ellis AutoworkZ of Tampa www.ellisautoworkz.com will be conducting a Dyno exhibition with their new Dyno Dynamics http://www.dyno.com.au/ I watched the machine in action last Saturday. It provides a color printout in graph form of horsepower, torque and fuel / air ratio.

My wife has concluded that Thomas(not quite two-but really enjoyed the National Aquarium) is ready for Sea World, so driving down in his roadster is out.:(
