Thanks.

As Zgirl said, later As for the article, I'm kinda surprised mine is still up after so long! Then again, the new ones will be there OH so soon. And my main one will be in the magazine itself very soon.

Do we have to wait for the print magazine for performance measures? (Dyno, 1/4 mile, skid pad, slalom, etc.)

Also, I only ordered my subscription to your mag like a week ago. Does that mean I will or will not get the next issue with the Z article?

Thanks.

I met Dave at Blackhawk in Danville at the Z unveiling. He was pulling triple duty in the parking lot. Very nice guy.

Just one thing....something about Sport Z Editor and Junior Member that seems to clash. Can't we make him an honorary Charter Member?

You have just become so famous that they have to keep your articles up...or did you not read the fine print in your contract.
Enjoy the visibility as long as possible Ryan. 15 minutes of fame and all.

Why does that not sound like a friendly reply?
Perhaps I'm reading into it too much?

Well, the article is apparent enough.

How about the video? I don't see a hyperlink.

Nice article. Little disappointed in the qtr time though -- 14.1. I wonder if they just used the C&D time?

They did and they credited them with it as well. For the article Carl did not have a chance to quarter mile the car...many didn't in fact. They had to go with the number that they currently had.

On SportZ's main page is a link to 350ZForum.com and ZDriver.com

I know on our site we have the link right at the top of the main page in two versions. Just single-click to start a Zip download. I don't know how ZDriver's is.

Well, the video was long, had nice engine sounds, and I guess I shouldn't complain about a FREE download, but...

Why would he spend so long in the car talking about insignificant items like storage areas and the sound the turn signals make, and not mention how the car felt and handled? I kept waiting and waiting... and it never came. What a letdown!

Oh well, any info is better than nothing!

Well, a few things

1) Every other magazine under the sun will go into that and some already have. He went over a lot of the annoyances that prior Z owners had, explained what was new and better and went over his "impressions" driving the car were. That was the intent of the video.

2) He did mention it a little in the video but he didn't harp on it. The article goes into it in much more detail. Did you read it?

If you want more detail, drop me an email
