Default I'm FINALLY ready for Skyline Drive...

... and Watkins Glen too.

Thanks to Dave and Kevin at F:T for putting my car back together after my unfortunate run-in with construction on 495 in MD More thanks to Dave and F:T for guiding me through the darkest days of my mod addiction

My Z has been a work in progress since the I bought in August of 2004. Many of you local Z and G owners don't know me because I don't post here very much and I just can't seem to make it to many meets, but I wanted to post a couple photos of my car as it sits ready to attack Skyline Drive, Watkins Glen (late October) and VIR (late November):

There are a few other photos in that album. Harnesses are going in this week and I just ordered replacement rotors for my old and busted OEM Brembos.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in 2 weeks!!

Saw your car at F:T the other week and checked out the roll bar, very nice and not too intrusive. Kevin said your car is rock solid and corners like its on rails. Enjoy the track time

Hey Cass - thanks for the comments! I somehow missed your car while I was in and out of F:T - are you going to make it to Skyline this weekend?

I peeped into the window of your car and I thought to myself, "HMm! I guy who knows what he's doing... how rare"

Your cage looks dope, I'm going for a full cage for next season. Cya @ VIR sometime.

Thanks Abui! I'd like to claim credit for "knowing what I'm doing", but I've just managed to learn from other people around me that know more.

I'm planning to keep the Z street legal for 3-4 more years and then slowly transition it into a full-time HPDE car and eventually move into Time Attack.

Looks like I'll see you in the morning in Tysons!
