Thanks! '03 Track on Nismo suspension. Other mods include Nismo exhaust, v1 lip (too bad I couldn't get my v1 rear and Nismo sides on in time for the meet; they're in for paint right now), Bat's tail overlays, 35% tint, H&R & Eibach spacers on the Track rims, IS300 antenna, shaved rear wiper, Courtesy chrome Z front emblem, Kinetix v4 plenum, Popcharger, IMR ground kit, CNR crank pulley and probably a few things I'm forgetting... Had a couple fresh caots of Zaino Z2 and a healthy slathering of Z8 Grand Finale spray on her (sorry we couldn't make the photo shoot). Name's Steve, BTW.

All the cars looked great; the black G35c was super clean, Redline always looks good and PPW is actually growing on me; I never thought white to be a color worthy of a sports car, but the white Zs looked great!

""I'm missing two. Who were the other two? I really like the camaraderie that seems to go along with these cars. I can't remember names (never could, but now I have an excuse, age) but the '03 silver was great with the new stereo.""

What? I have a much better legal excuse than that! Mine is called "brain" damage. I even showed ya where T.L.C. is located there in Galveston. I had to live there 4 months to finish my rehabilitation due to my lil fender bender.

Oh, FYI, my 5 year anniversary is this week. June 8th, 2001. Darn Tropical Storm Allison.

I believe I saw you Sat. {gold wheels right}, if so jesus your car is beautiful. I was in the silver Z {carbon hood}, I almost ran into the guy in front of me watching you in my mirror. Back on subject, yes a remeet in the near future would be great. I'll admit Sunday was extremely crowded in Gal., but anywhere is fine with me.

Well, we were not far from the ferry area, however, some truck had just smashed into the back of an SUV (I think). That caused a massive amount of traffic back there. We were not able to take any photos in that area.

Ewwww..... I'm not a seafood kinda guy. Even though I can't taste food any longer. I can still "sense" what type of food it is. As T.L.C. there in Galveston. They will explain it to ya.

We should plan this some Saturday evening. Maybe head down to Galveston around noon and take some of the back roads there on the island where we could have some FUN!!!

A dinner meet down in Galveston would be a great idea. We just need to come up with a date so we could past it in MY350Z & G35Driver.

Well, if you are wishing for people to dead to Galveston during the week, that really might not happen. I arrive at my office around 5:40AM Monday thru Friday.

Yah, Galveston is fine, but only on week-end mornings (like we TRIED to do originally). And, even then, it's hot as hell this time of year. Night-time is NOT the right-time for cruises, less safe and BTW, you can't see too good.

As I told Stephen at the cruise to the Mosquito yesterday, I would be more interested in a curvy, hilly drive to the Huntsville area or maybe even better, a cruise up to the Brenham area. There are places to eat (I'm thinkin') and lots of fun up and down little hills and curves (that's what SHE said). Either way, it's summer now and awful hot and I hate waiting 'till October and even then it can be right warm, as they say.

I vaguely recall one of our local posters writing about a Huntsville cruise of a couple of years ago. Maybe he could chime in with a suggestion. Worse comes to worse, I could reconnoiter (my two-bit word for the day) the Brenham drive and possibly come up with an interesting route with food. But, I'm a newbie at that sort of thing. Any experienced cruisers out there?

I had already checked it out. Awesome, even if that word is over used. I could never do that, but there are lots of things I would never do. Would you be interested in anything so simple and non-competitive as, "just a cruise"?

Have I said I don't like jokestrap? It is very depressing that it is no longer safe or possible for my to road course race vehicles any longer. NEVER have a "slight" little car wreck causing you to have brain damage from it.

Here are some of the cars I "use" to run in. WHAAAAAA!!!!!
