Our Motto and Hashtag: #ZOwnersUnite
Drive Your Z On The Track
Z Club of America provides you the opportunity to drive your street, modified or race-prepared Z on a real race track with guidance from experienced racing instructors.
The biggest variable in a Z’s performance is the driver.
Learn how the vehicle dynamics of your Z work when accelerating, braking and cornering. Discover the racing line and why it’s the fastest way around a track. Appreciate the critical importance of safety rules to protect you and your car.
The driving skills you’ll develop will help you get the most of out of your Z, whether driving high speed on the race track as well as the quiet streets of your neighborhood.
Put Your Z in a Car Show
Enter your Z into a Z Club of America car show or coffee and car event near you. It is the best social connection for learning tips, tricks and fixes specifically for your car from fellow Z enthusiasts.
Z cars in any condition or undergoing renovations are welcome to participate. These events are designed for fun community gatherings and shared experiences with other Z owners.
Z Cruise Events
The classic, leisurely Sunday drive is alive, well and growing in popularity. “Cars & Coffee” are everywhere and are a great way to start the day. “Pop Up Cruises” are how the Z community gets from point A to point B along a scenic route, usually ending with a meetup, a meal or a visit to a special location. Z Club of America helps you find cruise events near you.
Z Rally Events
Rally is etched deeply into Z heritage as one of the first performance tests undertaken. Rally takes place on public or private roads with modified production or specially built road-legal cars.
It is a point-to-point format in which participants and their co-drivers drive between set check points or stages leaving at regular intervals from one or more start points. Rallies may be won by pure speed within the stages or alternatively by driving to a predetermined ideal journey time within the stages.
Z Autocross Events
Autocross is how your test your driving skills by competing against yourself. One at a time, Z owners navigate a temporary course marked by traffic cones on a open pavement. It’s a timed event focused on smooth handling as you challenge your technique.
Z Club of America helps connect your street, modified or race-prepared Z to autocross track events where you’ll find like-minded Z owners who want to push themselves in a safe, organized space.
