L4D2 ftw!
Looks like the sun is trying to come out.
So I sent a message to the vendor of my 'muffler.' I went to Full Blown yesterday, and they suggested I find out about the warranty. I think I have 2k miles on that muffler. They should send me a new one.

If you guys are interested, I'd like to officially get the Twin Cities Z Club started and chartered. If we do this, we will pay dues, get recognized by Nissan Mag, members get a subscription, and we can use the dues to pay for events and meetings and such.
If you're interested, email me at smoothz at gmail and give me your first and last name, email addy, and cell phone #. I will keep a list of interested members and get started working on setting TCZC to be official.
Thanks!

As I've discussed, we need to get a meeting going very soon. Once we do this and get started, we can approach different dealerships in the area to inform them of our official status. Best of all, I think we can convince a dealership or 2 to host a Z car show or event to bring out potential new customers (and new members for us).
So email me your info if you haven't already. I just spent the last few hours typing up our by-laws and such. My wrists are sore.

I guess no one went to C&C today.
Aaron, how's the rain over in your area? It's been raining all day here.

Hmmm.. trying to decide which car to buy next year.. I love my Z but I've always been a fan of being unique and with the prices of 350s coming down a lot I need something different. Trying to decide between an 05' elise or an 91 NSX, I can find both for around 25K. If I could afford the extra 10K i'd easily get the 97NSX hands down. What re your thoughts.

anyone know anything about mowers?
Hustler Mini Z 19hp kai / 52" deck $6600
or
Scag Tiger Cat 25hp kohler / 52" deck $7400
demo'd the hustler and it is a nice machine, but I have concerns it is underpowered when I get my bag/vac. ease of maintaince on it is a plus, feel/handling is awesome. Cut seems to be good
scag has more power, probably a better deck, but is 800 bucks more....
any other thoughts?
I am only mowing my yard ~1 acre and will be getting a bagging system for either one, but only using it a handful of times a year.

Greg, that movie looks awful. Did you see it at the mall?
Sorry, Aaron. If it was me, I'd go with the Hustler. It sounds cooler, plus I can't justify $800 for a little extra power that will only last maybe 3 months out of the year. I think I'm Jewish....lol
And I agree about the Elise. I've driven one. It's so nimble and could run circles around the NSX.

I don't know about the elise. My buddy's girlfriend has one and its a sweet car but not one I would want to drive every day. He was blowing away a GT3 in the corners at the track last year though. Could be he's a better driver the GT3 would blow by on the straits then he would get over taken in the corners. Nick are you in La Crosse? I'm doing a charity bike ride up there in Aug. We'll have to have some beers.

I'd hate to drive it every day, especially on MN roads.

Most years, I can't mow until May and I don't mow after November.
