Default Enjoyed my Z yesterday.

Jumped in for a short trip to pickup concert tickets, had to go to another city within the stated. On the way out I saw a couple of Z-drivers and other Sports Car driver looking at me looking at them.

The usual Mustanger that got to pull up and race their engine, admirable looks from the women and older men thinking man I remember when. Anyway just a nice typical day out driving the Z.

On the expressway I zoomed by a Mercedes I guess the exhaust of the 350Z sounds racy or threatening. Anyway all the way home we zipped and zigg zagged through traffic with 330ci, Honda Prelude, something else ?? following behind. I don't know why that happened and we are not talking C, CLK, SLK Sport Class but Sclass 500 that big sucker could corner and hang in there. I guess all Benzs are sports cars.

Anyway it was nice to know that the Z ran in such good company. I really didn't raise my engine I just pasted them, must have struck a note.

They don't respond that way to my 2000 Infiniti.

Z as stress relief. I've yet to have a bad enough day at work that a "spirited" drive home couldn't cheer me up.

I washed my Z squeaky clean yesterday and had a dump truck full of mud pull out in front of me on the freeway today and muck it all up. After that I floored it and reminded my self how fun the Z is.

I was able to take her out yesterday thanks to some clear weather without snow for a change. After work I just cruised around for about 2 hours, went down the interstate for about half an hour just listening to her hum with the radio off. Can't wait for summer!
