Need a couple of Claymores. Just make sure you point them the right way. Where it says, "Face Towards Enemy". Make sure that side is pointed away from the house.

I just have to provide my local UPS driver (a fellow Z enthusiast) with directions through the mine field, so he can bring me my Z parts.

Then let someone else sign for them & put them away

Dillon Aero's on remote towers would work well, along with overhead surveillance.

I hate cutting holes in my car but, the benefit out weighs it in this case. I hope you got all 3. The big one in the middle is the most important one.

I only did the sides. So far my temps have stayed pretty low, even with 10 hours of continuous driving, but I'm also not tracking the car, and at a lot less hp than you. If I start turning things up, I'll add the 3rd.

You may be OK where you live. The problem comes when you have the engine heat soaked, come up on stop and go traffic due to an accident, and then the temp gauge starts climbing while you are sitting there. You will start sweating cause
the gauge won't stop going up. Been there done that many time before in my 1975 280zt. Even had to shut the car off many times.

This is preventative measures on my part, another "just in case". So far I've been fine, but I'd like to keep it that way, and if it starts becoming an issue I'll definitely add the 3rd one. Good to know you've seen this as a problem, that makes me more aware of the possibility!
