We are flying this trip but will be heading down to Nashville for the 4th of July and am considering taking the Z. Not sure yet though...might be a little noisy for an 8hr drive. We are used to my old 08 Altima 3.5 as our road trip car. That thing was buttery smooth and quiet. Shame...should've kept it.

:tup: the new Altimas are good looking cars. the 2 door is pretty sporty too...I would drive it.

Everything went on pretty good except there were couple glitches...

such as a gravel roads.. that force us to make a U and detour a bit... :wtf2:

a public road (on google map) turns out to be a private "No Exit" :confused:

Otherwise it was fun and smooth... :tup::tup:

Mr.Ire has GoPro-ed 90% of the cruise, hopefully he will post it up later this week...!!

Some crappy cell-phone pics....

Sam's newly wrapped 40th...!! :yum:

He couldn't go for the cruise for he made it to drop-by and say "Hi & Bye" :icon18:

Looks like a good turnout. Hopefully I can make a cruise this summer.

Well good morning everyone! I'm back from the dead, and still trying to recover from Zdayz. I can't even explain how awesome of an experience it was. You guys really need to put everything on hold and make a way to go next year, because this is my new vacation for the year :)

No dyno yet. Today he will hook me up with the software and loan me a cable, so I can do some datalogging over he next few weeks. If I have any comments, we'll look at doing a few tweaks if necessary. Then will come dyno - hopefully sometime in early June :tup:

Meh... if it happens, it happens. I have to have the car tomorrow and after work today is the only opportunity to pick it up.

I know, just keep your wits about you. :tup:

You can outrun those twisters. Drive your Z in zig-zag patterns... twisters won't be able to keep up.

LunaZ 05-21-2013 09:42 AM

Morning Ziggaz!

hey haboob :tup: didnt want to post at digi's thread cause it's already bad enough his car's all banged up.

but yah, this is when dd's come in real handy. while i would be saddened to see my fit all banged up, honestly, i dont really care. i would get it fixed or just buy another one, or another dd.

but not the same if this happened to my Z. :ugh: and thus, i dont pull her out when i dont have to. kinda hard to do that when one's Z is their dd. :(

Definitely.


Maybe one of these days I'll be able to get me a DD. It's just a bit tougher (maybe just for me) to rely on a cheap, used vehicle to be reliable in the Summer heat out here sitting on the freeways.

I'm perfectly content sleeping in my car in the garage at work if I have to wait out a hail storm. :icon17:
