I'm not but there is a couple of Super Touring races in which you may see Dave Jarman if he's got his Nissan Primera repaired?
Dave knows a bit about Datsun Zs

I live about 15 miles from Silverstone and was hoping the would be a Z club thing happening, but as the ain't I won't be taking the Z as I don't fancy leaving it in the punters car park. So I'm just gonna watch the weather and if it looks good I'll flip a coin, heads I go to a local music fest in the Z & tails I go to Silverstone classics in a modern Audi Then again maybe I'll do both, music fest on Saturday and Silverstone on Sunday Let's hope the club has a stand next year 
On a side note, those of you who think Silverstone was the birth place of the Samuri, It wasn't, It was another local village by the name of Croughton. Croughton had a US air force base and plenty of cars got brought over from the states and often they got left behind. It was a great place to pick up a deal on Z's & US muscle. Maybe that's how Spike Anderson got started on z's

Daves' is not ready to race as he's been finishing off another Primera (blue/white) which'll be in the auctions - look out for what it fetches.

Had a great day at Silverstone yesterday. We had 8 early Z's show. Maybe more that I didn't see.

I tried to find the Z Register group on Saturday afternoon, but obviously went the wrong way
Spent most of the morning trying to organise 70 odd GTRs/Skylines.Shame we couldnt meet... we were told max speed of 40mph and no overtaking........ hmmmm, missus got to 110mph and got the ass out at some point
Some cool pics, can I post a link on the GTROC?
There was a silver Z on the parade lap today, but only saw it when the owner was nowhere near it and then we went to a pub for a roast lunch

Where were you mate?
The lad that owns it lives in Wales. Don't you need a vehicle like that in Wales?
Yeah no problem
I want to say his name is Graham but I know I've got that wrong lol. Yeah he spent ages on Saturday trying to find the organiser of the silver car thing. I'm glad he got it sorted
I was in Portugal, weather was pretty good there too
didn't see any Zs though!that explains it - it's an RR hybrid. :lol:The lad that owns it lives in Wales. Don't you need a vehicle like that in Wales?
