CC is a bonus on loooooong road trips, but I rarely use it these days. Too much traffic and construction usually hinders me from keeping on CC too long.

Blose sucks. I've had 2 Z's and never liked the factory system. Someday I'll get something good in the Z33.

Yeah, I saw that just a few minutes ago and was researching his link. Was the AAM really loud? I'm hoping it's not too loud.

Has anyone here run their car at BIR (large track) or MAM?
I'm curious what kind of lap times folks are running with a 350, modded or stock. Mostly I want to compare it to my times on the bike and see how the car stacks up.
Thanks.

I'm going to BIR on June 11th so I'll let you know what the times look like. I think maybe a few others are going as well.

P.S. Nice to have you aboard!

Yea I thought so, looks nice but the money/looks out weights the benefit's. I want it, but just can't justify spending the money.I have read every post (ever made) about it on here and Tech. It does help and it looks cooler then ****, but I will pass the second time around.
