Z Hillclimbing Video

[jmark]

John, How about some videos of your winning runs from the Solo Nationals? In car or outside will do.

Bump for John.

Hey, just got back. Actually no vid's of the car at Nationals. There was a group there shooting and the video is 20 bucks. I think I am going to buy it. I do have some video from a local event but not from a good vantage point. If the video from Nationals look ok, I'll post it.

There is lots of great Datsun footage if you know where to look. It has prompted me to run an in car camera in the roadster. Here are a few clips.

The Z in front of me (until the very end, where I pass him) is none other than Hector Cademartori, the artist who painted the Zeal painting a couple years ago.

Not only is Hector a great artist he is a tallented driver too, and has raced his Z successfully for many years!

Holy CRAAP that's a fast B/SP Z car! The Bimmer is AMAZING too.

Can anyone tell us more about these events? Length of course, classes in which the cars compete, number of races per year in the series. Are they covered by local or national TV

We have similar series in the US. In the northwest we have the NHA (northwest hillclimb association) and I believe they have a similar organization in the northeast and possibly southeast. In the NHA Datsun Z cars have taken king of the hill honors at a number of events.
