failsaf3: man, you make it sound so um... morbid Scaring away all the potential Initial D wannabes.... No worries, I'll catch you on the next one!!

From the looks so far, I think I'm gonna be driving solo again...
Seriously, this is a true adrenaline rush.... you guys don't know what you're missing out. The stock 350Z is a very capable car!!

Anyone want to meet?

Dave,
I have some new Best Motoring DVDs.....Region 3, and for some reason I can't watch on my (Region Free) DVD player.
I also want to get the Sway Bars if you want to do a last minute mini TECH day at your house.......

Anyone is welcome!!

As far as the meeting place, Just park by the gas station along the street by Big Basin Way/Saratoga Ave and Saratoga Sunnyvale Rd. (Go into Yahoo map and type in Big Basin Way At Saratoga Sunnyvale Rd, Saratoga, CA 95070)

Make sure you shut off your light. We don't want to draw too much attention to ourselves.

Bring a 2-way if you can. I'll pm you guys the channel we'll be on.

Moodie, Was gonna go to GA for work's picnic on Sat, but couldn't get anyone else to go. Anyways, you're welcome to come by my place. I should have everything needed to get the Sway in. Anytime after 11:00am is fine. Just gimme a call to make sure I'm home Anyone else is welcome to come by and help. If you guys don't have my addy or cell and want to come by, pm me.

I keep thinking it's a 76, but for some reason, I couldn't pull it up in the yellow page. It's right at the intersection of Big Basin Way/Saratoga Ave and Saratoga Sunnyvale Rd. You can't miss it.
