Recap for Zdayz 2010!
Another Zdayz has passed and schedules have resumed back to normal at Injected Performance. After an ambitious showing last year, our goal for this year was to interact with as much of the community as possible, with informal events and a humble presence. It would not have been complete without a ridiculous display of raw horsepower, and Hal successfully fulfilled that requirement by winning this year’s “Top Dawg” award for the fastest forced induction car on the rented airstrip nearby.
Much of the weekend was spent around our cornhole game setup and showing off some products under our sales tents. Complimenting the hospitality was a grill, some free food and drinks, and much needed shade and shelter for the warm and rainy conditions. We decided to post up bright and early where the car show was setting up, which placed us at the center of attention for much of Saturday’s activity.
Although cornhole is not as popular across the east coast as we had originally anticipated, enough skilled players showed up for us to award some board sets to a few talented teams. These boards have now made their way back to Z-enthusiasts from North Carolina and Alabama, where we hope they provide much backyard enjoyment this summer.
All in all, Zdayz is a great weekend to relax, enjoy some of the best roads in the country, and meet all of the fellow enthusiasts that you often post on forums with on a daily basis. We are always proud to be a partner sponsor of the Zdayz event, and are already looking forward to Zdayz 2011! Be sure to check out our good friend Patrick’s official coverage at his Smugmug site!
Zdayz 2010 Cornhole Tournament!
We are excited to announce that we will be hosting the first Zdayz Cornhole Tournament! This lawn game is a popular staple of tailgating, cookouts, and general relaxation on a beautiful spring afternoon. Equipped with eight Zdayz-themed cornhole boards, some food, drinks, and good spirits, we promise an enjoyable time to be had by all.
On Friday, May 21st, from 1:00pm to 5:00pm on the baseball field of Fontana Village (weather permitting), you will be able to kick back with the staff of Injected Performance, enjoy a beverage or few (BYOB - soft drinks will be provided), and unleash your inner competitive spirit. Sign-ups will be available throughout the afternoon for a tournament to determine the Zdayz champions.
The official tournament will begin at 4:00pm and will follow a bracket or round-robin style, depending on turnout. The winning team will be able to take home their choice of board sets, which are hand-crafted and meet all regulation sizing. There is no entry fee for this tournament, and you may have all of the practice you can handle in the afternoon leading up to the tournament. Just bring yourself, a partner, and your best beanbag tossing skills!
Injected Performance Dyno Shootout at ZdayZ 2009
Injected Performance is proud to announce the official ZdayZ 2009 Dyno Shootout!
We will be bringing our Dyno Dynamics to Fontana Village for the weekend of ZdayZ, May 28-31st, 2009. We all know that there are infinitely many variables that determine your exact dyno results. Whether it be altitude, temperature, the brand of dyno, or just the time of the year - everyone is always trying to compare results from varying conditions. We wanted to provide yet another attraction to the ZdayZ festivities this year:
FREE DYNO PULLS!
On both Friday and Saturday of ZdayZ weekend, we will offer free dyno runs for registered attendees of ZdayZ 2009. Participants will have the opportunity to compete for trophies for the highest horsepower - both forced induction and naturally aspirated. Many other “honorable mention” trophies will be announced later
How can you receive a free dyno session at ZdayZ this year?
Simply send us an email (through this blog) with your name, contact info (email and cell phone, preferably), the year and model of your car, and a detailed list of applicable engine modifications currently done. A few pictures, if available, would be helpful as well for us to recognize you at Fontana Village. As we receive requests, we will try our best to accommodate everyone. A time slot will be provided to you as we come closer to finalizing the schedule.
LOCATION: The dyno will be available in front of the General Store at Fontana Village on select times on Friday and Saturday. Those who have signed up for a dyno session in advance will have an assigned time slot. If extra time is available, walk up sessions may be provided.
TIMES: There will be four sessions of dyno pulls. We will schedule as many as we can to a particular time slot so that you know when you should be readily available in the area for your dyno runs. Friday and Saturday will have two sessions each:
Friday, May 29th:
11:00am to 1:30pm (EST)
2:00pm to 5:00pm
Saturday, May 30th:
10:00am to 12:00pm
12:30pm to 3:00pm - High Horsepower Shootout
COST: All participants are eligible for a free dyno session consisting of 2-3 runs. A printout of your results will be provided at no extra charge. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we can only accommodate a certain amount of dyno sessions.
OTHER INFO:
- Nissan Z and G cars (2WD only) have first priority.
- Trophies for highest horsepower (naturally aspirated and forced induction)
- Other honorable mention trophies
- Trophies will be awarded after Saturday’s session
- You will sign a waiver at ZdayZ acknowledging that your car is in optimal running condition to be used on the dyno. In an effort to offer as many free dyno sessions as possible, no tuning will be done.
- Please email us to request a spot and include the information described above. I cannot guarantee that we will accommodate everyone into one of the dyno sessions, although we will try our best.
