That car did not look like an 82 to me. I may have this wrong, but that looks like an 84/85 vintage car. What do you guys think?

Ray, Crit is hooking me up with an oil pressure sender. No need to go to the shed, unless you want to try to catch another snake.

Hurry up and get YOUR engaged *** to a meet. I can understand compromise, but she's eating into both Mazda time AND beer time, and this just after you turned 21. Put your foot down

So is mine, but I can't help but try to get some hard numbers. You can always run the FD or Elise otherwise, but we're not trying to take anyone's money. I'm thinking of some nasty, smoky burnouts since I'm looking for tires, then granny-shifting my way to 88 mph (that's the goal)

I can't afford $50 right now. As it is I'm trying to get new springs...soon... Thinking RSR Down springs. It might be possible to talk me into it...but my rear tires need to be swapped out for the fronts. I dunno... It's either this or the autocross a few days before I go to Vermont. Autocrossing is more fun! Smoking starts are involved

Hey, someone finally put up some pictures from the TGPR track day.

http://www.nfz.cc/my350z/05.07.2008_...ay/page_01.htm

The 911 was flat out gorgeous. The guy had just finished restoring it. The miata was cool, pretty much completely stripped.

All in all a pretty good day. 3 cars out there were on their first track days (including mine) and they all fared well. Did more work on the 350Zs than on the others (they were roasting brakes).

You want serious answers or me to restate the obvious of the NOS shots?

Okay, so I've got two questions for the Atlanta locals.

1) Are Donnie, Billy and I the only ones interested in hitting up Commerce for the lowly sum of $20? Sounds like fun.

2) Has anyone noticed the sticky for Zoom-Fest at the top of the SE forum and have any plans on going?

$10 admission, $20 street legal entrant, $30 for a trailer-queen entrant. Collin, call me if you're going so I know to stop by the house on my way out of work. I don't have your wires with me, but I'll stop if you'll be there.

I cannot go to Commerce tonight.

I did see Billy's sticky on Zoom-Fest. Looks interesting. I am thinking of going. I need to look into the details, but it sounds like a Gathering (weak attempt at Highlander humor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kq4SqgxIKM0)

Hey, has anyone heard from Billy lately? I dropped him a PM but have not heard back.

That guy in the trailer looks kind of like you Mike after you haven't shaved for a few days.

Tim are you sure those red buttons aren't wired to Crit's cold start bottle? I think he puts Sea Foam in there and gives it a squirt once in a while to "clean out the carbon" cough, cough.

Sorry Crit I can't make it over to Commerce, the wife has got me baby sitting the house and animals for the weekend while she's off visiting family. I hope it arrives before she gets back.

Ya'll have fun!
