On the other hand just signed up with Chin to do VIR May 27/28 with the Type-R.
That part of me hasn't stopped :)

Wednesday night I did a SCCA Track night, but this time I did work/drive, which means I get one session for 50 dollars. It was suppose to be a shakedown, but it decided to rain. I took the 3rd session to run, but before that I went did parade laps and decided, I would do the session. By the time I got out, track was wet and no rain. Funny, slow starter, so I let cars pass. I got a blue flag for Cayman GT4. I said ok. Interesting is that it did not run away. And by the end of the session, I got a wave by them,. Spent the time feeling the car. Here is the video of best lap

Sunday was a good day, Car came back shiny side up and I went as fast as I could on this day. Best was a 1:38:10. Got in about 44 laps total. Biggest thing is just to have fun and take what time I can get. Because I have done a lot of laps here. The session I got my best time in I averaged 1.40.13 for the session. What really surprised me, was the number of cars. The group I ran with last year limited it to 25 cars per run group (maybe why there not there anymore). I do not know the count, but that was lots of cars. Also, in running yellow (intermediate) passing was allowed anywhere on track. Also vs last year group I ran with, this group, the drivers seem better/more experienced. But in the end I had fun and that is what it is all about.

Other news, I found a shop in knoxville, that will do the following on the Z.
Head gaskets
timing belt
water pump
coolant flush
oil change
For about 4600.00, which is great.

So that means when I put it back up for sale, someone is going to get a nice package.

Because along with that...
Last year - new transmission / clutch / battery / power steering

so keep tune....

That’s the way to treat the Z (or any other vehicle for that matter). Take care, drive it as the engineers intended, and take more care.

Good stuff!

Awesome build! Whoever is going to buy your car is getting a solid machine!
