They're everywhere but are anti-social. I don't know why some 370Z guys think they're too good for the rest of us, but they do.

I'll actually give ya that...I've tried talking to 2 370's that showed up to C&C last summer. One was a big headed younger kid that knew nothing about his car that was fully modded out but he bought it "as is". The other one wanted nothing to do with us.

I actually didn't, my wife has been pretty under the weather w/ a major sinus infection so I've been needing to her.

Some of the G guys are getting together for sushi tomorrow night which I won't be making either. Trying to conserve funds right now too...have a big year planned this year for shows/events, and still have a list of mods sitting in my garage I need to install. Waiting for this CRAP that just dumped all over us tonight to GO AWAY.

wtf? how did i miss the meet yesterdya? crap. i was hungover as hell and sore from my bachelor party weekend though! haha

and i need a truck and trailer to take my car to these further away trips. like going to powercruise is making me nervous cause it's 2.5-3 hrs away.. ever since i've been boosted, my comfort level of travelling far from civilization and shops to fix my car is very low, as I had very bad luck when i first got boosted... but i'll risk it.

if my fiancee gets a better job when she moves here, we will be getting some kind of SUV. and my requirement is that it is powerful enough to trailer a car.

What type of problems are you having? I have had hiccups, but I never have legit reliability concerns. I have driven to chicago with mine a few times

Sorry to hear that. You are much more sympathetic to your wife's needs than I am to mine. When mine is sick, I let her be

Sushi?
NEVER will understand the infatuation with sushi. Tried it and did not enjoy it, and I'll eat just about anything. only thing I can think of is that you all want to feel hip and trendy and sushi helps you do that. FWIW, car guys go out for burgers or maybe a fish fry, but not sushi

Take it back !!! The first time I tried sushi, I HATED IT!! Always LOVED fish, but COOKED fish at that. So the first time I tried it, I was like..."how the he// can ANYONE like that sh*t???" ...I have no idea how it happened, but then started with simple rolls like spicy salmon and tuna...and the right mix of soy sauce and wasabi...leads to wanting nigeri and sushimi...and then you just want to try pretty much anything!

THe LAST THING I would do to "act cool" would be to eat sushi. Its EXTREMELY expensive and adds up quick depending on where you go.

sushi is amazing. /end

i'm not having issues anymore with the car, but i had some fuel issues, and then my ball joint thingy on my tranny broke right after an auto-x session 1.5 hours away from my house, had to get towed.. and one time my COG belt snapped.

All these things have been fixed, but it's still a matter of there's just more things to go wrong.. but i'll risk it this time.. should be fine now.

I have driven my Z to BIR for track days most times, yet my trailer has come in handy a few times when my bud wrecked his GT3....so, most times I drive, but you never know when something may happen on track days, so remember the UHaul place up there is not far a way. I also have family up there so its also easier to figure it out. Oh yeah, and if not obvious bring your most common tools with...you'd be amazed at the ish myself and my friends have needed that BIR and Illinois didnt have available in their garage.

Oh yeah, and sushi is good...but much like tattoos and red heads, its not for everyone.

Also disagree, I quite enjoy it. I could see how you might look at it as trendy because to a lot of people that may be so. But to me it is god damn delicious.
