Default 35+ Z and G owners

Gone to a few car shows and feel very old. I know there must be some North Dallas area Z and G owners out there ?????????????

Hey did you buy that Jaguar yet ?

Don't worry...your Z will sell soon enough....it's the Holiday season so you might have to wait for the New Year....But it will fetch a decent price for the condition it is in.

Jason dude.... if your feeling old...then you will need to start getting those ideas out of your head. Your only as old as you feel.
Even though I'm 40 + ....I still skate, snowbrd, and hang with you young fools to make me feel good. ( j/k ) . But really as long as your healthy and having fun....who cares how old you are.

No, the numbers weren't what I was hoping for. I drove the Z all week and re-fell in love with it, so its a keeper until I get another wild hair.

Yes, good to hear from you again, yes that was a lot of fun. My best runs were the group after you left, 118's. Last set was not as good as I was overdriving the car.

S2000 group is putting on the event at Pennington this Sunday, are you going to make it? You would fall into my class "2".

Cool

I going to try, right now the car is getting a new instrument cluster at the dealer. They said only a couple of days but who knows. They have to send the old and new instrument cluster to a special company to set the mileage and then reinstall. It looks like I have to register by tonight so I'll see what the dealer has to say today.

If I dont make it, good luck and I see you at another one sometime.
Scott.
