A car club by any other name is just a group of enthusiasts getting together to celebrate their gains, reach out for support, gather advice and inspiration, and ultimately find a reason to connect.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Mazda clubs, specifically Nator Clubs, there is a LOT more to it than just the benefit to you as a single person. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recently sent Kim out to the Epic Nator Meet in Robbinsville, NC, to ride the trail of the dragon, reach out to the Mazda community, and just generally bring her personality to ignite the shenanigans at the event. If you\u2019ve ever had the \u201cpleasure\u201d of meeting or hanging out with Kim, you know what we\u2019re talking about.<\/strong> You never know what will be said, how loud it will get, or how late into the night the event will go\u2026 especially if there\u2019s a campfire. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She came back with some good info, great shots, and some awesome stories that reignited our LOVE of the NATOR MAZDASPEED CLUB and the Mazda community as a whole! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the moment she started to plan her drive from Richmond, VA, she was able to connect with a fellow West Coast transplant, and make the drive in her rental following the Mazdaspeed booty. Stopping for coffee, food, and to refuel it was an awesome drive all the way to Robbinsville, NC. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pulling in, the hotel parking lot was already full of Mazda\u2019s, and what a sight for sore eyes it was!<\/strong> Good friends from Canada, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Maryland, and so many other places! For those who had come in during the week, running the Tail of the Dragon had still not gotten old, and Mazdaspeeds were coming back from mid-day runs for dinner.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nights filled with good friends, talk of cars, and connecting to just catch up were the basis of the meet, and hopping from one car to the next to get feedback and different set-ups and parts was awesome! No need to drive the Dragon in a rental when there are so many built Mazdas around! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We got reports of the spirit of the Nator Mazda community still being alive! With part swaps and repairs in the parking lot – all hands on deck, pickups on trailers for those with bigger issues, and unfortunately we saw the spirit of Nator in having one another\u2019s backs as people as well!<\/strong> From fender benders to a hospital run to keep our squad safe and healthy! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is nothing, and we mean it, absolutely nothing better than seeing what the Mazdaspeed Nator club is capable of when it comes to supporting one another, donating to a cause or raffle, and just genuinely having a great time! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep an eye out, as we will be sharing about our trip to the Mazda Takeover Event in Idaho very soon, and hosting our own Mazda Showdown, event at the end of summer. There is very little that tops the feeling of being connected to a core group of Mazda enthusiasts, and from West Coast to East Coast, we do our best to stay connected and keep the spirit of the Mazda Community running deep! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until next time, stay safe, stay fast, and stay happy my friends!<\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n
