This year's car show will be held at Nissan North America's new facility in Franklin, TN which opened in 2008. The ZCCA Judged Car Show will be limited to the first 125 registered Z's.  However, there also will be People's Choice categories for anyone that would like to enter with their Z.   As this is the 40th Anniversary of the legendary Z car, early Datsun "heritage" vehicles will also be invited to participate in a separate People's Choice category.

Further explanation for the car shows that will be held at the 2010 convention can be found below:

Judged Z Car Show Rules:

• The Z Car Club Association (www.zcca.org) car show rules will be utilized for the judged car show.  If you have not attended a previous Z Car Convention, it is recommended that you read the ZCCA Judging Rules document which will help explain categories and judging criteria. 
• Judging scores are tallied and awards are presented at the closing banquet after the car show.

People's Choice Z Car Show:

• In the People's Choice category, Z's are competing with fellow Z's of the same generation:
  1970 - 1978 - 1st Generation (240z/260z/280z "S30")
  1979 - 1983 - 2nd Generation (280zx "S130")
  1984 - 1989 - 3rd Generation (300zx "Z31")
  1990 - 1996 - 4th Generation (300zx "Z32")
  2003 - 2008 - 5th Generation (350z "Z33")
  2009 - 2010 - 6th Generation (370z "Z34")
• Each registered convention participant receives a voting ballot to tally up their "Choice" for each generation of Z car.  Awards are presented at the closing banquet after the car show.

People's Choice "Heritage" Vehicles Car Show

• In the People's Choice category for "Heritage" vehicles, voting will be by car number.
  
• Awards are presented at the closing banquet after the car show.

Gold Cup & Gold Medallion Car Show

• As is tradition with the ZCCA, those vehicles awarded the ZCCA Gold Cup or ZCCA Gold Medallion at past conventions are not eligible to compete in future events against other "Judged Car Show" entrants.
  
  However, the ZCCA recognizes that bringing a Gold level car to convention should have some benefits.   In 2010, the convention committee has agreed to honor these vehicles with a special award and a "Best Survivor" People's Choice ballot voting. 
• Awards are presented at the closing banquet after the car show.
