NC/SC Chapter of Battalion30five.
We are a passionate community uniting Nissan GT-R and Skyline owners across North and South Carolina.
Our mission is to foster friendship and camaraderie through a shared love for these iconic cars. Whether it’s cruising on scenic mountain drives, competing in drag racing, roll racing, track days, autocross, rallying on the open road, showcasing our rides at car shows, cars and coffee, or local meets, we celebrate every moment together.
From hard parking to high-speed thrills, we connect through lively chats—both online and in person—sharing stories, tips, and experiences from an owner’s perspective.
We’re dedicated to building a tight-knit group that thrives on our community, our connections, and the roar of our engines.
We are your people, Welcome Home!
Best Regards; the Leadership Team
Luke Hetrick, Matt Smith, Christopher Currin, Renato Sanchez, Devashaun Hamilton, Tommy Conner, Caleb Treece, and Kris Parker.
