OH no, nothing like that. I have no problem getting gas. It's just the $$$ in the account to pay for it aren't there. This is a rough time for me. The time between semesters ending and semesters starting the VA doesn't pay you for. So you're on your own then.

And guess where ZDayZ sits right in the middle of...

Also another race car driver. I am now talking to two race car drivers.

Ah ah ah TWO!

I love how you're spending SO MUCH time on these things, for them to never be used to their design.

It really sucks because this summer session I'll be paying INstate tuition (instead of more expensive Out of state) and I'll actually be able to get Federal aid since it's based on your prior year tax return. And last year I made Zero income, so yeah, gonna get that too. And then on top of that the GI benefits.

BUT, the catch is all of that won't pay out till I start summer classes, after ZDayZ. So I just have to get through May and then the coast is clear.

Hilariously, the ducts are american made and sold to Nissan where they resell them through Nissan racing.

You're actually going to Track your Nismo? Then why do you take such care of the paint, and headlights... You know they're going to be trashed.

Not often. I already need paint correction after last weekend. I figure I'll have to pay for a repaint here and there. I've made peace with that.

Fair enough.

I looked at those CF backed Z emblems on TheZStore. Definitely picking up a set of those over the summer.

Yes, there's good and bad. Problem is the bad is RIGHT NOW and the good won't be for another month.

Oh well, if you want numbers its like 1.0x10^-1000000000% good, and 99.999999999% bad.

BTW - FP, would you be interested in an HD projector by any chance?

No since we'll all be in the Judged field. You would have to park in the Non-Judged field.

italy3541 · 04-24-2013, 05:27 PM

i c.. i dont really want to do judged being that i dont have a ton done to my car. but i dont want to park alone. so i guess i will register tonight in judged..

It's not worth the cost to register judged with nothing done. Plus it's a drive through judging anyways. Just park and come find us in the Nissan section.
