Where can I find the agenda for Bowling Green in May? Will there be speakers, presentations, etc. Will there be drag race events, or just the NCM track? Will there be opportunities for shop time and ability to help each other with light work on cars, plenum pulls ect.? I haven't been since 2007 and Auto Masters unfortunately is gone. Looking forward to seeing new and old members!

I am asking again if anyone can RECORD those sessions. I bet that only 1/3rd (at best) of the ZR-1 community attend the Gathering, but all of them would like to see those sessions.

While I completely agree with what your saying and asking, things are not that simple in this day of the internet and social media. As I understand it approvals would be required from both the facilities where the presentations and activities are held and from the individuals giving the presentations. It’s too easy these days for videos to end up on the internet where some of those involved may not want them to be. We will look into it and try to get it done.

Thanks, I sure would appreciate it. Perhaps it could be hosted inside the password only login to ZR-1 Registry?

Another thought is it could be used as marketing material to get more people interested in ZR-1. Unless you have bought the Heart of the Beast book or spoken with a Registry member, the ZR-1 is still an unknown. And by that I mean all of the special work that went into developing the car.

Will there be maintenance opportunities at the Gathering? Shop availability?

Is there a dinner on Saturday night? Or do things wrap up after all the seminars? Trying to decide if I want to stay extra night or make the 3 hour drive home....

Yes, there is a big sit down gala dinner Saturday night. Typically with more speakers and a silent auction. Very worthwhile.

To anybody who hasn't gone yet and is on the fence about it, the gathering is most definitely a worthwhile trip; especially this year. 2018 was my first year going, and not long after I bought my Z. I'm so glad I went. I'm hooked on it all now. It's a blast. :-D
