[Loki]

Hmm, closest to me would by NYC....bleh. I'll try to show up, but no promises.

[dickie]

[S13FX]

WOOT WOOT,

[Jables]

Awesome... I really wanna see this thing in person..

[MastaYu]

[MagikDragon]

This event is gonna be awesome, the 370Z stops in NYC at the Heisman Awards. Freakin Sweet!

[dusred]

You comming through St George by any chance?

edit-

WTF? You are totally missing the North West of the US. You must hate us.

Oh well. I guess I could drive to Vegas.

[Razi]

Can't wait till you guys come to LA!
Maybe I should hold up a big Nico sign.

[AZhitman]

Definitely come to Vegas!

Also, please help us get the word out by linking this thread on your local forums (and any other forums you're a part of), Nissan or otherwise.

shion, i think you will have to make the trip to houston on that one

I know but it would be so easy for them to make a stop here since it is only a slight diversion, we are not that far out of the way.

[dickie]

if its traveling a preset route i dont see if it could.

in reality im sure there will have to be at least a pit stop but i have no idea how they determine that aside from the gas needle pointing to E. Austin traffic can be a total ***** though and it DOES need to be in Dallas by the next day.

[AZhitman]

There's a possibility.... I'm driving that leg of the tour, so let me see what the itinerary looks like.

[Loki]

How many legs are being NICO driven? Cause I notice that going from NYC to Chicago will take the Z right through my backyard. I'd love to see the car without traveling way out to NYC.

[AZhitman]

Almost all of them.

There'll be some intermediate stops, which I'll be posting up soon.

We'll also be keeping you guys updated from the road in real-time.

[Loki]

Nice. Definitely stop up in Scranton

[gammer_ghn]

LA is where its happening. Greg will you be at the La auto show by the Nissans? if so afterwards im taking your *** down to my neck of the woods for some good hooka great food and ill provide the drinks!

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Yay! It's coming to AZ!

[Marenta]

Aww.. I'd love to drive a leg of it.. from Chi-town to somewhere in Kentucky.. Who knows.. too bad I'm not staff..

[NSR_s30]

Wish it actually stopped in Ohio, instead of just passing through.

[crunchy peanutbutter]

Will you be giving ride alongs?

[AZhitman]

...there WILL be some interim stops along the route...

Those are in the process of being planned at this time.

[frapjap]

New England stops?

[AZhitman]

...there WILL be some interim stops along the route...

Those are in the process of being planned at this time.

Check the map - If you guys see an opportunity to gather a TON of people, we'll make sure we STOP there!

[dusred]

A "TON" of people. So that means if each person weighed around 150lbs that would be about 13 people. . .

Sorry, the Politics forum is getting to me a bit.

I think I'll be able to make it to the stop in Vegas and if not there the one in Phoenix. We'll have to see what the schedule is like.

[Ghostdrifter88]

Guys, please welcome Matt, formerly of My350Z, current owner of MyGTR and NAGTROC... Matt has the first R35 in NC and is a huge Nissan freak.

He'll be spearheading the event as the 370Z Rally rolls through NC, so for those of you local to him, he's your guy!

Good to see you Matt!

[PapaSmurf2k3]

[RCG_Savage]

Damn both cities are 4 hours away from me, why couldn't they have stopped in SA instead

[NISTECH]

Just caught this thread.
I guess I can make one of these stops, the day I have to work, while I am working I will walk out front look at it, then go back in the shop.

Greg are you going to be along for the trip up to my dealer or only on the leg your driving?
I can cut out for a couple hours and we can grab a bite to eat if your up to it.

[brandonlgilbert]

Aww no stops anywhere close to me Sounds like lots of fun though.

[MC@MYGTR]
