The folks over at Car and Driver just featured this wicked 280zx powered Datsun 510 in their “LeMons Good/Bad Idea of the Week” article. Check out the story on “Team Dirty Sanchez”(yeah, I know, but it’s LeMons!) and more pics HERE. Thanks to zcarblog reader Clark G. for the heads up!

We need you to sign a petition. Please take the time to read it. Why?
In short, a company called AMS from Canada has been buying products from small companies here and sending them to China for copying. They are robbing these companies of their hard work, designs, R&D costs, and hurting the community by selling cheap imitations. What can you do? Sign the petition. Boycott AMS parts and do not support their practices.

We had a great time driving at Thunderhill Raceway yesterday with CityTech. Rob drove the ZCG 370z, Allen with his Vortech’d Z33, Ken in his ’11 WRX, Glynn in his sweet ’96 911 Carrera, Scott drove his newly acquired Z33 race car, and I had my Z33.


The weather was very wet with light to heavy rain and varying surface conditions. Some of you might be thinking that it is miserable to drive on a race track in the rain…not the case! It is just as exhilarating as a dry track day and it gives you the opportunity to really improve car control and explore limits of adhesion.

Everyone was having a fantastic time and there were close to 12 Nissans on track! You know you are hardcore when you run your DATSUN at a rainy track day…Dean and Dave S were mixing it up old-school style and…Datsuns are Driven!

 


We will definitely be running more track days with CityTech. Patrick puts on a great event with LOTS of track time and something you won’t find with other groups: free on track photos! Dito from gotbluemilk.com took some sensational shots of all the Nissans together, enjoy!
