no worries, plus it was super HOT...i wish if i just saw pictures of the event instead of going there, i was dying. hopefully we will get to you this saturday

Haha, I'm glad I didn't go!

I plan on breaking out the Porter Cable this weekend to give the Z a MUCH needed detail. I've treated the paint poorly over the last year so it's really messed up. Hopefully I have it looking nice for Saturday. :)

I'm going to be in Washington State this coming weekend visiting my Sons so I won't be there for coffee on Saturday. The Z will be up already at AAM anyhow getting the intakes and headlights hopefully installed. I'll either get it back before the open house on the 15th at AAM or I'll pick it up at the open house.

I'll be very interested to see your Z when its all polished up so take some pics on Saturday someone and post them up!

I will take some before and after pictures. If I'm as good as I was back in the day at detailing I will post them. :icon18:

Who wants the big news?

Me!

I got my first call from one of the board sponsors today! THMotorsports (THM) had a post over on my350 that they were looking for 370's for their online magazine. I submitted The Smurf about 3 weeks ago. Kinda figured by now I was out of the running or not even considered. Well, todayI got a call and they want more photos of my car!! :tup:

Also, Functioned Tuned wants to fix my Stillen pipe issue....the passenger side is pushed in too far. On top of that.....they want to sponsor my car!!! :eek: How cool is that? There's one more piece to the puzzle I don't want to get my hopes up too much about but this saturday at the Starbuck's meet I'll know more as the guys from Functioned will be there again.

:woot: This makes up big time for the curb incident this past Sunday! I won't be driving The Smurf as a daily driver if everything goes as planned. I'll be needing a "driver" to drive The Smurf to local car shows.....apply via PM, please. :p

Very cool! Why do you need a driver? You should be enjoying the car... not having other people drive it for you!

Anyways, Dave is a cool guy. I'm interested in seeing what you guys can come up with down the road.

Haha...yeah, I know. I just need some driving lessons.....well, to be more specific....driving lessons on a lowered car. I CAN'T fug this car up again....I just can't! :shakes head:

Congrats - you have worked hard and spent the money on the mods.

Hope to see you all in two weeks!

Hey thanks, SHROZE! :tiphat: Heading to the AAM Competition meet on the 15th?

You just need to be more careful and pay more attention to what's around you.

If you want to work on building some confidence, you should look around at some high performance driving schools in the area. I bet one of those would do you a lot of good! :tup:

Good....no, GREAT idea! :tup: I'll be looking into that for real....and hopefully complete the course before Z Dayz. I'd just hide in the closet in Fontana Lodge if I wreck the car driving to Z Dayz. :icon14:

Doubt you will be able to get anything before ZDayZ, but really... just don't do anything silly and you'll be alright!
