go to Doug at Awesome Z.. he worked on "some" TT cars.
It's going to be up and running safely in no time.

I can imagine that on video is "quieter" but the tone is that one.

Yeah... Think I will once the fund acct recoups. LOL

If I have too... I'll gladly drive your car a couple laps at TWS so you can hear it from the outside. LOL!!!

Honestly you were the ONLY car we could hear around the entire track. It sounds great at full throttle. Almost F1ish. Now don't go thinking you're Jackie Steward!



Oh... For those that may care... I took home "Best 350Z/Z33 of Show!"

you sure deserve the prize. your car looks great.
I know I'm not Sir Jackie... but considering how many asses I kicked I was closer to Jackie Chan :ico n39:

when you'll come to TWS, ask for mthreat (pm him) as instructor... he can show you a really fast way around that track on a Z.

There was reasoning we lined up like that.

BTW: Troy was asking about lap times on HPD.
