I am going to look at a z that will be mainly a parts car. I am eventually going to put the motor in my 86 in the spring. I know that moffit went ice racing last year. I was wondering where it takes place in relation to rochester. I was thinking that this car could be a fun car for ice racing. It has some rust issues and the rack leaks but I could get it for a couple hundred dollars. Anyone ever done it or know where it takes place. Does the car have to be registered, what classes. the car is a 85 300zx n/a auto 3 liter v6. Just curious.

Dave (and others) went two years ago… last year sucked for ice, and there was only one sanctioned event in all of NY that I know of. Anyway, the sites to check are:
Central New York Ice Racing Association Inc.

Oh, and don’t assume that they will let you run in a leaking rustbucket. People show up in nice cars and they may not want to be on the ice with someone who seems to not care if they hit anything.

Depends on the organization that you run with. For street cars I think one of them runs both studded and studless classes, and the other runs just studless. The “real” ice racing cars use crazy tires with screws sticking out of them 😛

I know, I haven’t looked at the car yet but I don’t think that it is a total pile. The rack is easily a 600 job if you don’t do it and the timing belt should be changed which is 400 at a shop. That is a lot to spend on a 85 car. Who needs power steering anyways.

I remember Dave saying there were pretty explicit rules about how bad of shape your car was in. No big rust spots was the one thing I remember. I’ll nudge him about this thread to see what he says.
