Chris`I Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 It was the OC stand so that makes sense, another picture I didn't find the stand either as it was in a new bit of exhibition area apparently - mind you considering how many cars there were there the 350z was pretty exclusive actually (more NSX's than 350's) Oh I see, I didnt even know the OC had a stand. Didnt see an 350s on the track either, but I didnt see the last of the Z Clubs sessions so there may have been some on then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choptop Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 those are the same as Kev's old WORKs, in fact I think they might be them, iirc he sold them to an OC member, so could be him Yes they were Kev's old ones. I spoke to the owner on the OC stand. I was interested as they are very similar to the ones I am getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choptop Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 No its a replica, but a damm good one. on a 240Z base its one of the best in the country and it sure pulled some people onto the Z stand At a distance you would not have known. I said to Steve who has put that on our stand! He then enlightened me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choptop Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Went along to this yesterday and had a good time overall between the showers. Choptop I saw your car on the stand and parked just in front of you, but unfortunately we didn't get to meet up. Never mind there's always the August drive out There was plently of trade stands and things to spend your money on, but I resisted. Loads of track action with all sorts taking part - my personal favourite was a 1972 240Z with a Ford 302 cu in V8 inserted into it. I tell you, it certainly pi$$ed of a few Scoobys and Evos. I didn't take many pics but the ones that are worth looking at I'll upload later today. Saw your car too Trev but never met up. Never mind. As you say there is always the Forest of Dean run.

Chris`I Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 For the people who went and either saw it happen or missed it and for those that haven't heard, somebody crashed their NSX quite spectatularly at Japfest, theres some very good pictures which shows what happened http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/to ... 86293&i=40 I feel gutted for whoever owned it seeing the pictures I saw that from down by the S2000 stand. Just saw it come back down from 2 wheels to 4, didnt know it was that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holtehero Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 My mate is looking for one, but wants a more recent model in the right colour. I think its quite an iconic car now and the fact Ayrton Senna helped design it gives it another quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 I think I saw your car Chris - was it on the left as you were facing the cafe? I was one of two GM Zeds parked along "the back row", which was indeed on the left along the fencing (well whats left of it) and to the left of the marquee. Reg OE53***. Which one were you? The other Zeds I saw was the other in the line with me (with cars between) and a group of 3 in the centre part of the stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
