fail post -
Mike, I was only there for a little bit from about 9:00 - 10:00 or so...I saw a few Z's on the back row, but not yours...Did you drive or park inside ?.....I was parked way out behind the other business'....But always enjoy seeing some nice rides out there.

I like to shop and get ideas for my next car....I'm thinking Lotus, Vette, or Porsche for the next Track car....only if I win the Lotto tho !

Skrilla, did you just get Dis'd ?

JaE35z, I think I saw a VQ engine on CL with like 65k....not sure if it was a Manual or Auto for the trans...but the Motor was in good shape.

Upgrade to HR!

Thanks Chris. I'll probably powder coat the wheels in the future. I really like the oem sport wheels.

I didn't know you upgraded to 06+ headlights as well! Car is looking good, racecar status with the decal and all

Q, I got those headlights from the "Eric" that works at Wheel Solutions in Carrollton....he was selling his Z a couple years ago & I swapped them out....not long after I got your tailights. .....And I am Racecar status from now on !

You need to come out this next year and hang with us whether you drive or ride along...you will have a blast.

Chris...I thought you have a Harness bar already ?

------

Pat....I'm afraid I'll strip my threads out like you did if I get your Harness Bar !

R U driving in the Charity event at ECR ?

I got my gifts & food today for it.....I can't wait !

Scott will be there and all of us Z's.

We should set up a site or page to do the Cresson 2 day event in the spring ! That would be so fun with like 5-10 Z's out there !

Never had a harness bar. Most harness bars won't fit, either, because of my useless nitrous bottle being in the way.

Is it uncomfortable DD'ing with a harness? Doesn't look comfortable and seems like a hassle for DD.

The 4 point, no, not at all but the straps on the six point are a lot wider so we will see. Almost seems like it would be more comfortable if i put my sparco seat back in with these harnesses lol
