News & Updates:

5.05.08  Hocking Hill Tour- Note from Gregg Eggleston.

4.24.08  Hocking Hill Tour- Saturday, May 10th at 10:00 A.M.

As Big Ezzzzze says, "if you don't go on this drive, turn in your keys!" The Hocking Hills tour has always been one of those events that everybody talks about.  Lots of cars and plenty of twisty roads that will clean off the top of those shock.  Pack a lunch for the stop at Conkle's Hallow., 

We're meeting at Taylor Nissan,  Memorial Drive or RT.33, on the north side of Lancaster, at 10:00 A.M. We'll hang there for a bit and then saddle up and head south to Conkle's Hallow.  Likely there will be a rendezvous at a convenient spot in Lancaster for those who want to refresh and rehash before heading back to C Town.  We're makin' a day of it. 

Bring your radio and call if you lost...614-570-9268,for Jim Corbett since my lack of directions, (we've been doing this for how long?) obviously cause you to be confused. Just get there and you can follow the guy in front, keep up now! Personal Radio are always welcome on ZROC channel 5.1

4.19.08  Heritage Tour was a big turnout.

Thanks to all who braved the last bit of inclement weather to show at the local Nissan Dealers and let those folks know we're here.  For the next month the sales guys will at least remember to tell their prospects that there a Z club.  Special thanks to Larry Denny's crew for putting together the makings for lunch. 

03.11.08  Events update from Gregg Eggleston.

I guess March came in like a lion and will hopefully go out with a Z on the road, 85 mph and sunny!
A little closer to home, but still in the bible belt, myself and a few other ZROC members will be traveling to Z ATTACK 7 sponsored by Middle Tennessee Z Club April 11-13.  This will be the third year a couple of us have traveled to this event and it is definitely a great time.  The party starts Friday night at Crawford Z and usually ends up honky tonk-in in downtown Nashville!  Visit  ZAttack7 and check out the entire weekend's activities and registration.  This is a great club who always go all out to make us "Yankees" feel welcome!

Here is a link to the video from last year's show. Enjoy! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=645167390767198468&hl=en

Much closer to home for those who couldn't fit a road trip into their schedule, be sure to join us on April 19th for the annual HERITAGE TOUR--RAIN OR SHINE!  We will all meet at Germain Nissan in Gahanna at 10 AM.  This will be a chance to meet the team players for each Nissan dealership (sales, service and parts) and catch up on all the latest from your fellow Z buddies.   

By the time May rolls around if you aren't ready for a road trip, like Big Easy says, "Light the fires, kick the tires and get ready for the Big Easzzz's Hocking Hills tour on May 10th, an exhilarating trip through southern Ohio back roads with heart stopping turns and roller-coaster thrills.  After a heart pounding afternoon flying by the seat of your pants, we stop for a late lunch and a couple cold ones while sharing some laughs and rewinding the day’s drive.  Those of us who have are reservations for Fontana Village May 16-18; find this event to be a great tune-up for the “BITE OF THE DRAGON”.  Check out www.ZDAYZ.com   

If you are planning on attending the Midwest Z Heritage Fest in Chicago June 6-8, be sure to check out their web site www.windycityzclub.com  for the latest details on reservations, activities and registration form.  This will be a premier club event for the year.  We'd love to have a huge club showing (25+cars, maybe?) at this event!

FINAL DRIVING EVENT FOR THE SEASON!!! 

October 14, 2007 (Sunday!) ZROC will wrap up another great season with Bob's Westward Cruize to Indian Lake, with a midway stop at Ohio Caverns. Meet at 10:00 AM at Woody's BBQ, St Rts 33/42, same as the last 2 years. Bob & Karen Krochefsky

know these roads like the back of their hands (of course we all know that Koki is actually navigating!) and every year finds us in unexplored territory. We will stop in at Ohio Caverns, and those who wish can take the tour of the best caverns in Ohio (charge for admission) and those who might be a bit sqeamish about going underground can hang out for some extra socializing. I do highly recommend the tour but that is your call. We will proceed from there to Indian Lake, where hopefully it will be nice enough to sit on the veranda for some lunch and refreshing beverages. We have had over 20 cars on some of our events this year, and I would love to see that number blown away for the final cruize. I am posting this up on the various Z forums as last year we had several people come from Cincinnati and they were all very impressed with "how we roll". So mark your calendars now (in ink!!) and join the best damn Z Club in the country for a fun afternoon.

E-mail or call Steve Padavana with any questions, numbers are on this web site.
