Default A 'Satellite' Call From The Cemetery

Today, he was just sitting there for an hour or so with the cars driving in and out every few minutes.
Not very stealth in a fly yellow auto parked all by itself!

Ok who in their yellow car was scoping out Nissan today? Was it possibly the yellow 240 who got the original night shots of the Z? Should we expect new pics tonight? Hope I am getting close!

No comment on new pictures, just a call to say hello and comment on the exhaust note. (very close to Fairlady sound)

Boy you do a great job of being vague! So someone in a yellow car was calling you on a sat phone to discuss the exhaust note of all the Z's which were entering/leaving the Nissan compound. And from the description or relayed sound through the phone, you say the sounds we have all heard at the Japanese site are very realistic to our cars. Excellent! If not continue with your riddle! Haha.

He calls, he is watching and listening to the cars. He states that the sound is VERY close to the Fairlady. No sound through the phone except the yellowZ. Hey, at least he called to let me know the cars are still around which make for more opportunities for viewing!

How did this person get your phone number RxO? I must've missed that post of yours.

But then again, you probably would've recieved some anrgy calls "There's no Z's here!!!!!!!!!!!!!", to go along with the "I'm taking pictures of Daytona as we speak!"

Cemetary is ok, but you are facing north. All action will either occur west of or south of that position. Best spot is facing south on Fig, just south of one eighty nine. To your right; where all good Z's sleep, that aren't travelling. Straight ahead; the intersection where all travelling Z's must pass.

I attached a picture of the car in question. Not the original, but a very accurate clone.

With the yellow car it was easier to park on Fig. and watch the cars slow to look at that car. If parked next to "Motorhome Manor"
too much foot traffic would have made viewing difficult as well as parking on the opposite side of the street.
Next time I'm sure he will take something that blends in better.

Default Testing in Arizona

Sport Z magazine indicated that they (Nissan) will be testing the Z in Arizona this month. Maybe we might have some spies out ther. Hope so.
