Sure! You can show up if you'd like to hang out with everyone check out all the cars, donate to Toys for Tots, etc.

However, actual event registration and entry into the Poker Run, Timed Run, and charity raffle events are reserved for the Z and G drivers only. We'll also have parking marked off for all the registered cars at both locations, there should be seperate parking elsewhere at both locations for non Z/G cars.

I really don't think putting down our club members will get you anywhere or prove anything with our event. We invited G's because we want to have a good time with everyone, and I don't think this should be used as a chance for G owners to prove anything.

If anything, I'm a bit disapointed that it would be looked at in this manner, and certainly hoped more from this club. I kept an arms length from the whole Z Fest argument because I didn't want to get our club in the middle of the fray, the last thing I want to see is to have it spilling over into our event.

It looks like we have some people here that are just as much to blame for all the ill will as any Z owner. All this nitpicking ends up doing is perpetuating the argument of a non-existant issue.

Again, I really want nothing to do with any sort of Z vs G odds that may have happened in the past. Just please don't feel you can use our event as a platform for it. It's good that you want to help out but not if you're doing it for the wrong reasons.

It would be great if everyone could just come out and enjoy themselves.

Think levity. Did you notice the disclaimer and my other points that were added for levity. Look I wasnt there at Zdays and do not care about what occured there.

lighten up dood. Generals/Coaches/C level Execs/Managers the world over employ these tactics everyday to rally the troops.

Well put and I for one am sorry for anything, any one of our members might have said to discredit you, your club, or this event. Sometimes people just have trouble letting things go and separating reality from personal perspective.


FGC MEMBERS,
I dont want to read another post with the SFL Z club mentioned. The issue is dead and whether you know it or not, there are ALOT of supporters who are trying to help Chuck and the other few members in our club who are trying to participate in these great Z shows. Your immature comments are not only uncalled for, but make the whole club look bad and shy away our supporters, like the Z Club of Florida.

Well said Daniel and Wes. We can all get along and have fun. That is really the true purpose of any car club. If I wanted more headaches I would go into the office more, but I rather enjoy the commradery of the car club scene. There need not be any animosity.

That being said... I am really, really, looking forward to The Run!!!

I personally don't really care about the member differences between the Z's and the G's. It's for a good cause, so if I'm in town I'm in!

(It would be good to meet a few of the local G owners anyway)
