Only hitch was the battery was dead. I've always let my cars sit in the garage over the winter and they've started right up but this Z wouldn't even crank over. Guess it's time for a trickle charger.
Glad you got your first taste of Spring in the Z this year

:doh: I know for storage of any duration, there are a lot of people (especially Mr. Kenchan ) who recommend a battery tender over a trickle charger. My understanding of the differences is the battery tender will stop charging when the battery is full (and restart when charge drops) while the trickle charger just continuously provides a small charge.

I'm off today, so the Z will get a full bath before a full weekend -

Houston Coffee and Cars tomorrow morning followed by a car show, and then The Woodlands Cars Cars and Coffee followed by a car show!

Next weekend is Nismo Fiesta in San Antonio! double

The Mecum auction is also going on here this weekend and I'm going to try and pass by there too!

After that, ten days at the Boardwalk Villas at Walt Disney World, followed by the build up to the Indy 500.

This is my favorite time of year (for now)

Have a great weekend guys!
Sounds like a great couple of weeks Mr. Gurney!

Good day except for getting popped by a state trooper on the way home. Oh well. There's my annual ticket. Time for a summer of cruise control... at least in PA.

Morning sir

Austin is right on the edge of the hill country so we don't have far to go for some decent twisties

Roads are located primarily based on the topography of the land. There are always exceptions, but generally speaking, any flat city is going to have square intersections. Lubbock is a good example in Texas.
