72240z Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Canby is "national"? Idk about that, NW meet is correct to say I think. Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Canby is the largest all Datsun-Nissan meet in North America. Quote Link to comment
FiveSeventyZee Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 still it's mostly pnw with some western Canada and Cali people making the trip. not to say people don't come from afar but probably 95% of the people/cars there are from the 3 areas I just mentioned Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Yep, people come from all over to the Canby weekend. Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm sure some do, 100-ish cars with most people coming from the same region in my opinion is a regional meet. A rotating one with thousands of cars like the z nationals and convention to me is a national meet.Not taking the piss out of the meet, or trying to argue. Its awesome, prob the best regional in the country. I'd love to go sometime if I ever go x country in the z. Quote Link to comment
Radim Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I want to try to make it out in my truck this year, but I still need to get a shit lot done to it motor/drivetrain wise.U-Haul rental is expensive... 1100 for the truck, 400 for the trailer..... Quote Link to comment

Tristin Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I just hotlinked that from a random site... it shows up on my screen. Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Not mine, it may show on yours because its cashed in your browser Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 A lot of guys come here from all over this area, and a bunch come up from mid/northern california, as with all meets, some show up from far off places, but this seems to me to be generally a west/west coast meet/show. In the US hanggliding nationals, we had flyers from all over the world, if you paid the entry fee and showed up, you flew and were ranked, but it was still the US nationals. I am having a hard time believing that southern california doesn't have a big datsun/nissan meet also. Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Socal does have a big meet. But its only regional. Canby is the ONE. Quote Link to comment
Kirden Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Canby is a goal i'm working towards as well, one day all of the NC/GA/SC members are gonna gang the fuck up and go cross country in a datsun conga line. many oics will be taken, many lulz will be had, many break-downs will be fixed beside the road... We should really get this together. I think this would be a total blast and we could just make a huge vacation out of it. I have so many feelers out on parts right now that I just might have a reliable truck before Canby. Just need to source a L18 or L20B that needs a rebuild and I think I will be set for a long journey in time, but I can't afford one of those till middle of next month after buying the 5-speed this week. Stupid bills and budgets... Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 The the ones in socal are international too because some mexicans go. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
