Anyone here?

saw a long line of z's climbing the diablo Mountain....in front, and in the rear...Man, it took me hella long to find this NorCal forum...woot, im home....

also saw, Brickyard, 5 houses up from me, and a CS around the block...

btw, 8/9 - got into a friendly 3rd gear battle with a 02-03 convertible silver M3. Driver - mid 40's balding, Passenger - also in the 40's, with a Camcorder.....after the Davis Bend toward Sacto..I was headed to Thunder Valley. He caught up to me while flow of traffic was going around 50-60mph, then M3 started blasting in third, then slowing down,...In all honestsy, I know Mr. M3 was surprised when I was side by side from 40-90mph...but he did slowly inch away...the RUSH was illy...no doubt. Hanging with a M3 Bimmer, in our Z's. He then exited on (5) and gave a thumbs up for the adrenaline rush...I was smiling all the way to the Casino...like I had already won something... =) Hanging with an M3, made me realize that its a waste of time when other rides lesser of the Z's trys to front...I just smile, and watch them fart away....Peas out yall...!!

Default Saw 3 Zs today

Lemans sunset on 237 at lunch time, an indian person with another guy, driving way slow (maybe under 1200 miles, had no license plate). Rolled my window and gave him a thumbs up sign.

Then in the evening, saw an asian girl in new CS (no license plate either) on Maude turning to wolfe in sunnyvale.

Then on Main St. in miliptas, saw another girl in CS. I waved but no response. We need to get some Z girls to join the next meet.

Saw a PPW entering 80E near the Ashby exit merge at 4:42pm, believe it was an Asian dude with a shaved head and a passenger. If you're here, it was me in the black SC400 that honked at you.

Saw a CS this morning at 7:20am exiting via the Hilltop Drive exit entering 80W. Believe it was an Iranian guy with a passenger. Gave the thumbsup and got a hand wave acknowledgement in reply.

Yo mgl (Michelle is your name, right? If not, sorry )

Do you ever get pulled over for not having a front plate on your Z? The police in SF are really stringent on enforcing front plates, so I was just wondering. I have mine on my dash, but as we all know that does not suffice the po-po.

Watch, now that you said that, you'll probably get pulled over three times today for a no front plate violation.

But it is funny though... when I was driving my slightly modded Civ, I would get pulled over like crazy. I drive my SC400 without a front plate and don't get pulled over. The Z, well, I am wondering if it is a matter of time.

Thinking of a clip-on, clip-off front plate holder that affixes to the grill... on my next trip to Home Depot I shall see what I can put together...

well no problems yet.....
but then again i just put on my rear plate yesterday.
the sf cops are so far ok... i had a modded eclipse and never gotten pulled over in sf. just so you guys/gals know, there's a cop in millbrae (young asian guy) who is the worst cop ever. he'll pull you over for everything. i got pulled over by him numerous times, just not in my z yet. so if you are ever in millbrae, drive slow and watch out for him.
