Nissan, in conjunction with HIN and NICOclub, presents the 370Z North American Rally across America!
Be among the first to see, touch and experience the 2010 Nissan 370Z in person!
This is an unprecedented 15-city tour to introduce the long-awaited successor to Nissan's legendary heritage car, the Z.
Video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyUzS4GJlCw
Your NICOclub staffers have been invited to drive the 2010 370Z during its tour of the US. You'll get a chance to meet up with us and other enthusiasts, and Nissan will be presenting an interactive enthusiast event at each of the scheduled stops. I'll be driving the Phoenix-to-Houston leg of the tour, so if you're on the way, make sure to meet up with us!
In between there will be smaller tour stops, where you can see the Z in person and meet with the Nissan Corporate staff - This promises to be an event like no other, so check the map, sign up for the updates, and come join us as we blast across the continent in the all-new 370Z!!!

The Official Rally Coordinator (screen name 'Rallymaster') will be passing along more info as it comes available, and I'll expect to see EVERYONE make it out to the events as we criss-cross America!!!

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

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

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.

I can be between both CHI and NYC and NYC and MD... What's going on Greg? I can definitely be available pretty much any day and have an incredibly flexible work schedule... 
I also work RIGHT next to the Nissan Somerset NJ location, in case they plan on bringing this by like they did with the GT-R...

Speaking of which, I've gotten all of 3 address back from the people I emailed regarding this tour. One of which was Greg, which I don't really need. C'mon guys, where are you? Without addresses it means I can't send anything out to you guys to promote the site!!
