I take it to the track....

I normally don't get those urges since i enter track events now about every month or so..... actually, starting this weekend and the next two weekends in a row i have an event..

1. TEXAS SCCA 4/27 - 25 entry fee
2. TEXAS SCCA 5/4 - 25 entry fee
http://www.autocross.com/texasregion/

3. Mineral wells drift event 5/10 -40 entry fee
https://my350z.com/forum/meet-ups-events-texas/352622-mineral-wells-tx-drift-event.html

Drifting im a beginner so i just buy the best set of used tires i can find from local tire shops in the DFW area....actually in Grandprairie and Arlington area there are tons of shops that will sell you tires with about 7/32 or better for 30 bucks each.

so i dont spend money on new for drifting....all my wheels are used wheels ive purchased off forums or friends...etc..

AutoX i have a dedicated set with some good street tires. but im looking to go R-compond soon....

Definitely washing the Z.

BTW... just walked outside... a bird pooped on her.. Laaaame.

I love the sound of the Z in a parking garage or when I'm driving through a tunnel. It just sounds phenomenal.

I like cruising with good music playin'.

When I was in high school I had a 88 turbo supra. We'd race at every stop light and stay out past curfew to drag race in the business parks. Its amazing to think about how different my life would be if I had been arrested, killed, or be killed by illegal street racing.

Although I see a lot of younger kids driving the Z just like me (probably the affordability factor). I still feel like the Z is a mature beast that likes to be nourished by a mature driver.

Of course... she still likes to take it in the a$$ every once in a while.

she's so naughty.

Please be safe, and race legal.

Do you drift?

Are you in it for the speed and see how fast you can go on the highway?

Or do you like to take it to the backroads and play in the corners?

Ive had mine for a few years now, when I first got i was so thrilled by the power of the car, i found myself flooring it quite often. Now I dont speed as much and drive normally. Not saying I dont enjoy it, I'm just used to it. Which is why it's getting a new toy soon.

I love winding roads. Sometimes I speed early in the morning. But with the price of gas in California, I will only be driving my Z on weekends.

gas prices + being broke = no fun...

I like taking mountain/back roads. It's all about those curves for me...
