I actually met Jake a few weeks ago when he showed me how to change out pads and rotors. I've never done more to a car than to change oil, so I don't have the mechanical background to work on my car, but it was fun to learn. I'll probably try to do more of the small maintenance/replacement items in the future. I'm an engineer, so it's not like I have no skills, just short on experience.
Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself and say 'hi'. I'm in Frisco and work in Denton (when I go into the office). By reading the earlier posts, I may be one of the older ones that is on this site in the DFW area. I have an '06 silver alloy roadster. No mods as of yet. If I get the 'mod bug' it will more than likely stay under the hood. See you on the road.

Picture submitted to WFAA of a Z with the back hatch glass shattered by hail in Keller. Makes me very sad.

hmmm...screens go out, freaks out while on docking station, battery dies (with the power cord still in them)...motherboards crap out..networking conflicts with cable vs wireless (doesnt know what to use)...etc..
