that sounds like a tuff trip. ive done chicago-tulsa, OK in 10hrs drive.

Right? I'd like to go to some of these events, but there's never anything in the Southwest, and even if there was we're so much farther apart that it would still take several hours to get anywhere. :thumbsdown:

I'm sure the Z can handle it.
For me it's more about time wasted going there and back. If i could make it a 5 day thing then it would be more worth it.

I'm almost to 8k already, and I've had the car for 5.5mos. :(

I guess I can't really worry about it. It's my DD.

I made the mistake of buying a house in East California. :shakes head: Hopefully I'll move next year and not have to drive to work at all. :tup:

ricors just stiffen up everything cause it's race car. :icon17: while running junk tires and they crash into light poles, trees, apartment buildings, stair cases, church signs, people's living rooms, other cars, bystanding deer, off a cliff, over the river, through the woods, grandma's house, taffyapples :tup:, and so on.

to those ricers :ugh2:, first they should think about how come the 300+hp WTCC are using 17 wheel instead of 20.

Once you understand the suspension geometry and physics, you are already half success on modding the suspension. :tup:

Totally random question but does anyone else have a high pitched buzz while driving? I noticed it on the cruise this weekend and now I can't ignore it.

Just my exhaust. :p

I'll have a listen on my drive home and see.

Maybe it's that ECU whine people have been talking about? Or a speaker is blown (or close to)?

does that sound like a crt (old tube tv)? if so, you might have the high pitched whine from the ECU.
