Just as I was getting a little better around the track! I had to start picking up the baby and needed rear seats. Thought of every option to make that work in the Z, but couldnt make it happen.

I'll still be on here to keep up with the track news. And I still plan to get on the track with the next car, even if its a sedan.
Exciting reason to sell it, but still so sad!

If anyone is around T-hill this weekend, we will be racing one bada$$ Datsun 240Z in the 24 Hours of Lemons endurance race. Practice day is Friday, and racing is all day Sat and Sun. It is going to be an absolute hoot!

Here is a video of a Geo Metro with a GSXR 1100 motorcycle engine swapped into it. He will be there as usual.

Thanks!

I want an RC51 so badly. The total cost of the car minus all safety items (which includes brakes, wheels, tires, cage, fire gear, safety gear, etc.) has to be $500! Our car is awesome:

That car is awesome! Actually looks pretty fast.

Do you really drive through the night?

I saw some of the z guys that autox at our private events there for the end of The Lemons Race. There is a silver Z (Dan) and an orange Z (BJ). They are good guys - say hi to them. I could not stay after being there all weekend.
