ZROC

Just wanted to let everyone know about upcoming events.

Vintage Grand Prix of Mid-Ohio – June 12 – 14

Although this is not a ZROC club event this is a great opportunity to watch over 25 vintage races throughout the weekend and also walk around and take in the vintage car show on Saturday and Sunday.  You can also enter your car in the show if you wish.  You can purchase tickets and find more information at http://www.midohio.com

Indianapolis Raceway Museum Tour – June 27-28

The club is meeting at the Meijer Store located at 1661 Hilliard-Rome Rd., Columbus , Ohio at 7am on Saturday, June 27.  From there we will drive over to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum which is located on the grounds of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.  There is an admission cost to get into the museum (I don’t remember what it is, but I do know that Seniors can get a discount!)  We will also do a tour of the track (you pay for this at the same time you get your museum entrance).  Since it’s about a 3 hour drive over to Indy and by the time that we have completed the museum and track tour a lot of us are staying overnight and driving back home on Sunday June 28th.  If you wish to do the same the hotel which a lot of us are staying at is:

                                                                                                           Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham

                                                                                                           5815 Rockville Rd.

                                                                                                           Indianapolis, IN 46224

You can make reservations by contacting them directly at (317) 247-9703

This should be a very fun trip, if you have not seen the Indianapolis Raceway Museum it’s a really cool place to see.  They just recently underwent a $13.5 million dollar renovation and the drive is worth what you get to see and experience.

Hope to see a lot of you there!

The club is planning a drive to Ravens Glen Winery on Saturday, June 6th.  The meeting point is the McDonalds located at 4435 Executive Parkway, Westerville, Ohio 43081.

Meeting time is 9:00am.  We will drive some great roads to get there and then have lunch.  If you are interested in leading this drive, please contact Ernie Lawson.  Please reply to the event created on our Facebook page if you plan on attending.

Hope to see you there.

On Saturday, May 9th ZROC is having its Annual Dealership Heritage Drive.  We will start at Georgesville Nissan located at 1260 Auto Mall Drive in Columbus, Ohio 43228.  We will meet there at 8:00am.  After spending some time there we will then head over to Buckeye Nissan and finish out the day by heading to Nissan North.  The plan is to arrive at Nissan North about 11:00am for the latter part of their Cars and Coffee event.  Nissan North will be providing lunch to club members.

It’s always a great day and right now it looks like the weather should cooperate as well (fingers crossed).  Hope to see everyone there.

Good Morning Fellow ZROC’ers,

The club’s annual meeting has been set for Saturday, February 21st at the Outback Steakhouse, located at 2020 Polaris Parkway, Columbus, Ohio 43240 from 12p to 2p.

We will be voting on the board positions for 2026, discussing the upcoming driving season and various events on the calendar and just sharing our fellowship.

Spring will only be about 30 days away at that point so pretty sure that everybody will be thinking about getting their Z’s out of winter hibernation.  The annual meeting is also a great time to pay you club dues for 2026.  An event will be posted on the club’s Facebook page so please be sure to respond if you plan on attending.

Hope to see everyone there.  Be safe and stay warm until then.

Just want to put this out there again before the Annual Meeting.  We are taking nominations for board positions so if anyone is interested, or knows someone who might be interested, please let any of the board members know.

Board positions are:

President

Vice-President

Treasurer

Membership

Communications

Dealer Relations

Member At-Large

We have nominations for all positions except the position of Vice President.  This position entails planning the club events for the year, except for the Dealer Drive, and/or recruiting folks to help plan events so if anyone is interested again, please let us know.

We would like to have all nominations, NLT December 15th so that we have time to prepare the slate of officers for presentation to the membership at the Annual Meeting in January.

Wishing everyone a great Thanksgiving and Thanks again for being a ZROC member.

Attached is the latest club newsletter….ENJOY

Hello fellow ZROC’ers,
