Sharpsite Racing Bonus for the AJCS Week-end
Hello Z friends! I'm happy to let you all know of a very special event that had been added to our "All Japanese Classic Car Weekend" July 17-19. In addition to the Friday evening social, Saturday Car Show and Saturday evening dinner, we will kick off our Sunday morning road rally from SHARPSITE RACING!Dr. Allan Robbins is a huge vintage racing enthusiast, specifically with Datsuns. He owns Sharpsite Racing which participates in vintage racing events around the country. He also is owner of several original Datsun race cars, true Datsun racing history. Among them; * Car #0006, the first Z car to leave the factory. Most of you know the story, this is the car that was sent to North America in October of 1969 to make the rounds on the car show circuit and for press previews. After a model sat on the roof at the Toronto Auto Show and dented it, Datsun gave the car to Bob Sharp Racing and he campaigned it to SCCA championships for many years with himself and later Jim Fitzgerald who also raced additional Z's. Dr. Robbins owns this historic car in his collection. More info here: http://www2.zhome.com:81/History/sharp.htm *The Datsun 240Z IMSA GTU championship car driven to victory lane by Sam Posey. *The Electamotive 280ZX driven by Don Devendorf. *Several other vintage Zs 510s, 610s and roadsters in full race trim. Our Sunday, July 19 Road Rally will start from Sharpsite Racing's Shop!This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for any Datsun/Racing/History enthusiast to check out these historic cars all under one roof at the same time!
We will gather for breakfast Sunday morning, take a short drive to Sharpsite Racing and learn about the cars and their history. Doc Robbins and his staff will be happy to answer any questions you may have. We will then depart on a scenic road rally along the lakeshore to a lunch stop. The entire weekend's events are sure to be the highlight of the driving season! We hope you can join us!John Taddonio "zcarnut" 70,78,87,03 Z-Cars President, Z Car Club of Rochester NY

I suppose it's good newz that there's no Z-Cars to be found here. Should you happen to have a sighting & photo of a 2-Far-g0ne 240 then this would be a fine magaZine to send it to. Besides, we've got to get them speaking more Japanese don't we ;-)
