I’ll probably sign up for that. Just did last week’s event, had a blast!

Agreed, these events are awesome. They really spend some time picking out the twistiest and most scenic way to get us all from A to B. I'm bummed now when I go to a regular old car show that doesn't end with all the cars driving great roads for a couple hours afterwards.

There were some amazing cars at the last Tokyo Calling. Let's get bay area roadsters out to this en masse.

John, I was right behind you for a while after we left Petaluma at the July BCR. What a fun day.

Friendly reminder to register your roadster for the 9/24 rally!

[Alvin]

We are just over two weeks away from the Tokyo Calling Rally. Get those registrations in, and spread the word to fellow Japanese car owners!

[funkaholik]

For those of you waiting to register, they are over 70% full now. Don't wait any longer...

Wonderful driving day at Tokyo Calling!


So many roadsters!



It was great seeing Pat, Edmark, Mike Young, Ian, Erik. There were even more roadsters that I did not get a chance to speak with. These BCR rally events go by so quickly...but the memories last.

I led a group of 9 Z cars, full report soon!

If you'want to experience the Northern California coast and great driving roads, sign up for the next BCR rally. I promise you will love it.

Wonderful driving day at Tokyo Calling!

I want a poster of Mike's car to replace my Farrah Fawcett poster...

[funkaholik]

We could photoshop Farrah on top of Mike’s car. Idea for the 2023 roadster calendar?

I led a group of Z cars from the shop. We drove up through San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge


Breakfast Club Rally (BCR) events always have a pre-rally social hour to admire the cars, and this was an All-Japanese event so there was some serious J-Tin. Like Tom's genuine Nissan Fairlady Z432:



Of course, my roadster radar is always ON and I was happy to see so many in attendance:


Our friend Erik and his R16-stroker powered SPL. We dyno tuned it recently and it rips, you can see that report here: http://www.zcarblog.com/2022/08/29/perf ... dster.html

Ian's '67 2000 on the move:




Mike Young's '67 2000:





Andy's '69 SPL


The only RHD Fairlady 2000 (High windshield):



Edmark's '69 SRL:


You can see more of Ed's L20b-powered roadster here: viewtopic.php?p=328591#p328591

It was a great driving day, video and more photos in my report:

I highly recommend the BCR events, they are top notch. Sign up for the next one!
