Ultimate BMW show / Santapod 21-09-08 might be a good place to start. Probably the largest colletion of Zone cars in one place, 116 last year if my memory surves me correct

These things do come together,zoner's put hours of their own time into planning,and three poeple turn up....what is needed is comittment fromthe rank and file,those that put their names on the list and fail to show up at meets, an organizer thinks,'Whow,thats fantastic,got 50 names here',and twoothers show,this is disheartening to say the least...(just like my bloody spacer bar..)

With the southern meets we always bank on a 50% no show. normally works quite well

Yes i totaly agree. I have put my name down and not turned up for a few things in the past. The touble is the lists usually start quite some time before the meet is due but something unpredictable my come up.

Any of the meets can be nationwide, you've just got to turn up lol

No matter where they are taking place, it's always going to be further to travel for some than others
