Good Morning People's...

Last night I had a great time at both Towers and Flanigans...

Wes, that same blk 6 series bimmer wanted to race me on I-75 but I was going 50mph waiting for Edwin to catch up...

Then you were Psycho on Pines zig zaging through traffic, and there's no way I was going to be a part of that, due to the fact that I know that there are cops flooded on that street, especially during that time. But it was a miracle that there were none out there..But still I couldn't take the risk...

But then when we were at the light side by side, you didn't try me, LOL!!! Well we know why, hehe...But I was surprised how you kept up with Gabe...but after 3rd and 4th is when his car is good...

Wes at Flanigans we had to split up for a reason...plus my cousin Adrey with the GTR was at the bar and he told me that there was one high top table available right next to him, so I had to grab it for both me, Amy, Gabe/Alice, and Edwin...OMG we have a blast at the table...Patron shots FTW...We closed down Flanigans last night, LOL!!!I haven't laughed so hard in a while...Plus it was awesome watching the Heat spank on them Hawks last night...

I won't be at the meet tonight...I'll be up in Boynton with Amy...Have fun guys...

Hey Wes, "You never had me , you never had your car. Ask any racer any true racer; it don't matter if you win by one foot or one mile, winning is winning".

Well I just bought my V2 spoiler. One thing left before paint, and that is a rear diffuser.

for a "stock" G37 to beat a supercharged 350z on first and second gear and still fighting on 3rd gear on Pines Blvd, i think you guys should give props to my dad.

3rd gear is going 70+ mph and gabe should've been ahead of my dad by at least 30mph with that supercharger kicking in.

gabe's z is supercharged and lighter, my dads G37 is stock

when i was still driving the white 350z and milton was in his AMG, we did a launch from a redlight and i didn't even have a chance on 1st gear and by the time i was on 2nd gear, milton was at least 8 cars ahead of me. same thing should apply with my dad and gabe.

last night should have been a no match instead of a decent match

Wes's car was very quick for sure. He took me at the light and I was very impressed. Those 3.7 HR motors make very good power. I think they run a higher compression than the DE 11.1CR to 10.3CR bigger stroke and higher compression makes us even down low. Vortech's drive like NA cars with just more power up top. I don't hit max boost till about 5000 RPM's.

This is why I keep telling Wes to get TT. That car would be a complete animal.

As far as weight goes with my Fat *** out of the car my Z is lighter, but when I'm in it I think Wes's car is lighter than mine. I need P90X.

I almost forgot the G37 has a 3.7 final drive and an LSD. I have an open differential with a 3.5 FD. Gearing can make a big difference.

Good morning friends, very sad incident last night with our friend Jean and his Z, but at least he is ok and the damages can be fixed.
I had a blast last night, it was nice seeing all of us there and also meeting some new friends, I truly hope we can all get together again sometime soon!!
Good times!
Miguel thanks for the heads up on the canards...LOL I never would have noticed!

You're right Mr. Gabe. When I heard that jet engine, it scared the heck out of me. Thumbs up Gabe!!

It's really too bad we don't have hills or twisties around here, lol.

We need to have an out of town trip on a weekend. Maybe to Orlando and stay there for a night or two, and have a meet there with Ian and friends.
Have dinner @ Kobe and drink Saki.

We need a road trip.

How are you Jean? I did not even know that you had an accident last night. I just saw you with a cane, and that was what concerned me, but you didn't mention you getting hit in the rear.
