Rare Brickyard sighting: around noon, Z was heading west just before El Camino/San Tomas intersection.
Also, around 5:30 pm, CS spotted heading west on Central Expressway just after Bowers intersection.

Saw 2DB's last night in Vacaville/Fairfield heading west on 80 within 60 seconds of each other. 1 was a roadster. Waved but no response from the roadster but got a big wave from the coupe.

Hey David, you don't travel in the HOV lane during your daily commutes, do you? If not.... shoot, I thought my commute sucked

Seems like every Z on I-80 has two occupants...

Nope. And yes it's a long commute. I actually don't mind at all. Especially with my new audio setup. Now that I've got a DVD player maybe I'll start watching movies. Can't be any more dangerous than those guys I see shaving or the women putting on their makeup. LOL

Man, we travel the same freeway at approximately the same time daily, yet I have yet to see you. Come to think of it though, virtually all of my commute Z sightings happen to be those driving in the HOV lane. Always looking for that Brick in the parking lot called I-80

I was cruising in my TL today

Parked SSR at Kubota restaurant in San Jose around noon. I'd never park my Z in that parking lot unless that one special (protected by landscaping) stall was opened.

My flight attendant friend just flew in from Atlanta and she wanted some sushi.
