Hi ZROC!
If you were at ZDayZ then you know we had some fun with a little photoshoot for ZCCM magazine. If you missed it, or want to see the outcome of that fun photoshoot, take a look at the newest edition (link below).
Thanks to Art Singer for taking these amazing photos, and for always making this magazine a fun and interesting read!
Z ya later…
It’s been a busy couple of months since our first event of the season back in April! May brought us our membership drive and ZDayZ [we had close to 30 members attending this year!]. June has been just as busy a month – we had the Midwest Z Heritage Show in Nashville, IN a couple weeks ago, and the Vintage Grand Prix at MidOhio this past weekend.
Read below for a quick recap on both events!
For the 2nd year in a row, ZROC won the traveling trophy for the best club presence at the show! We had many members, both old and a couple new, show up to show off their cars and have a good time. Click here to see a video recap of the car show… you’ll notice some familiar faces and cars!
Just this past weekend, we went to MidOhio for the annual Vintage Grand Prix. We had at LEAST 22 cars show up, and some of our members even won some nice ribbons! We enjoyed good food, good beer and great times watching some of our ZROC fam racing. Check out ZROC’s own Andy Doll & Lowell Marx in one of their races, as well as the couple of ribbon winners from this weekend.

As always, it’s been a fun season so far. Stay tuned to Facebook and emails for future events this summer. Up next… the Arthritis Foundation Auto Show on July 6 & 7th in Dublin, Ohio!
Z ya next time…
Thank you to all of our great members who joined us for our first kickoff event of the season, the 2018 Heritage Dealers Tour! We had 20+ cars which is a GREAT turnout for our first event of the season. We’re looking forward to seeing you all at the other exciting events coming up this season!
All week, people were worried the weather might not work out for us, but we ended up with an amazing beautiful spring day! The rain didn’t roll in until about 1:30, right about the time we headed out for our last stop.
I’d also like to give a HUGE thank you to our sponsors who took amazing care of us as always and showed us just why we love our sponsors so much. Thanks for having us Georgesville Nissan, Buckeye Nissan, Nissan North & Germain Nissan. Members, make sure you stop in some time and show them some love!
Z you at the next event!
Sorry for the delay ZROC! Time got away from me and it’s been a couple weeks since we had another fun day at Grand Prix Karting! Lots of speeding, bumping, blocking and even a little fender bender/spin out action made this a “track day” to remember. After 3 heats, our podium finishers were Shelby Wofford, Randy Lynn & Brian Bivens. Hopefully everyone had a good time, and if you missed out, be sure to stay tuned here for our next event!
Hi ZROC! We have an updated copy of our schedule of events for this year. We were waiting on some details for events that aren’t being hosted by ZROC, and now those details have been added to our schedule. We’d love to see your faces and cars at some of these events throughout the rest of the year. The Google calendar for our events can sometimes be a little buggy, so please reference the actual event pages on Facebook, or review the list of events linked below. As always, if you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment here or email us at zrocwebsite@gmail.com!
Thanks,
Jess, VP Communications
Good evening ZROC! I apologize for the delay in getting a post up here, it’s been a busy couple of weeks! Two weekends ago, November 4th, we had our end of year luncheon at the Winking Lizard at Crosswoods. We had a GREAT turnout of people – family, really – coming together to reminisce on the past year and the many great times we’ve had so far, as well as the many good times we will continue to have as we finish out 2017 and roll into 2018.
For those of you who couldn’t attend, we briefly talked about the amazing things we’ve done this season [our 1st Charity Car Show, some great drives, etc], as well as discussed some of the future events we’ve got in the works. You also should have received some sort of communication [via email, Facebook or on here!] regarding the end of the season questionnaire. If you haven’t already, please be sure to complete this survey so we can find out what our members think about the club/events and can plan accordingly in the future.

We also announced our 2017 Member of the Year, Jessica Padavana!

Shelby Wofford was kind enough to bring his camera and got some really great pictures of the celebrations of a great season. We also have some member-submitted photos, too! You can check those pictures out here: Event/Club Photos
The year isn’t over just yet, so even though the cars might be going into hibernation, we want to keep the ZROC family together for just a bit longer before 2017 wraps up! Our next [and probably final for 2017] event is Saturday December 2nd for the 2nd Annual COY Christmas Party. If you’ve never been, try to get it on your calendar and join us at the Padavana household for some good food, great drinks and even better people! It’s a great time, I can promise you that much!
Hope to see you all there!
