I see no pictures of said redhead?

She makes a very brief appearance here: ;-)

Nice!

That's Purdy!

I took a lot of photos, I tend to do that whenever I grab my Canon. Anyway, if any of you want the full res images shoot me a PM, I'll email the full-res version.

It was a cool meet, and we couldn't have asked for better weather. Hopefully John's (JvKintheUSA) drive back to Ohio is safe and fun. I made it to Columbus from Elicott City/Columbia in under 6 hours a few years back.

If I were thinking (hindsight's always 20-20), I would have asked our redheaded visitor if she wanted a test drive. However, she did seem to like toohip's Chicane Yellow 370Z the best.

She was genuinely excited by the Zs. Pretty cool that we encountered not one but two cool 350 owners this morning.

After seeing Lance and Tony's I have decided I need springs.

These guys talked me into the premium membership too! ;-) Now I get to see all the fun!

MUAHAHA!! That didn't take long...just had to mention PORN.

:roflpuke2:

Who's the sexy guy in the Brady jersey? (LOL, I'm kidding)

Damn, im starting to not mind pics anymore haha. I'm still a fatty and have a ways to go to my goal...but nothing like when I was a super fat *** 100lbs ago...I couldn't even fit in a Z.

Keep the pics coming. Its more motivation to keep going!!!

Nice camera work on her walking away. I give you an A+ on the pervy-ness factor :)

4 years of college and years of practice! :tiphat:

I made it home in one piece! And no tickets that I know of!! It was well worth the drive to meet you guys (and the redhead) and your Z's. Pictures came out great. Took me six hours and one Whopper to get back. Took the scenic route through western MD and WVa. Some nice Autobahn like highways there :driving:!! My last hour was driving in the pouring rain . I will give the girl a nice bath tomorrow.

I'll make sure to check back regularly, and I will try to make any other meets and/or drive you might organize.

John

Great fun was had today by all! I took a few pictures so I'll upload them later. Oddly enough, they look rather similar to whats already here!

Looking forward to the next one already!

lets have the next one tomorrow and see if JvK drives back...

:roflpuke2::roflpuke2:

If he did that....I'd pay for his gas back home! :icon17:

If there were an endurance or dedication award for this event, you would have won. I know that route pretty well as I travel back and forth to Pittsburgh and to Western Maryland a lot. Scenic Route 40 is really sweet and parallels I-68. If you were in no hurry and headed a little south, 219 gets pretty curvy once you pass the windmills and you get into West VA and drive through the Monongahela National Forest. But, I digress, that is likely further south. How did the 370z do on the trip? I'm guessing if it was a pain (or as uncomfortable as say the backseat of a Volkswagen) to drive for hours you wouldn't have made the trip.

Heres the photos I took. I didn't take many as I knew others had a much better camera than I did:

I know I mentioned this while there, but it's somewhat interesting that we ALL have the sport package. ;-)

Thats because its teh sex. Honestly, I love the OEM sport package wheels. I'm just trying to figure out what to do to them to make them unique. Maybe powder coat the spokes black and keep the lip silver or something to set off the handles. Not sure...sigh.

Or pony up the cash for these (I mentioned these today). They would be sick on a black car.

Those are very nice looking!

I had family coming to town so I could not make it out. Although, I do not have the sport package so I probably would have been booted out. :-)
I will try to make it out next time since I at least have a PW!

Don't gimme a reason to hop in my Z again! You know it only takes a Venti White Mocha to get me there!

That woulda worked out just fine! Hopefully next time....sounds like everyone is pretty excited about meeting up again soon! :tup:

The drive back was a blast. Put the radar detector on and it saved me one ticket. I truly could drive the Z all day long. I made one stop to get a Whopper, pee and get gas, somewhere in Morgantown. It is too bad that we don't have any great drives her in NE Ohio. The roads are pot hole filled and bumpy. It was nice to drive on smooth highways again. I averaged 26 MPG, which is fantastic, and 64 MPH average speed on my trip back and forth.

I will be posting another thread shortly so we can talk about the next meet (GB in Annapolis). I think maybe sometime in the fall when we get cooler weather we should also try and do a cruise out to Skyline Drive.

That's awesome! I love this car on trips long and short. It's a perfect sports car and GT car all wrapped into one. :tup:

A couple more pics from me. I was experimenting a bit with shooting in RAW and made some noob mistakes so maybe only 10 of the 100 photos I took came out half decent. :icon18:

I still can't believe how much attention our group was getting. People would just circle our line of Z's and gawk. Camera phone pics and stares galore. Love it!

I am beat. Was up at 3am..time to catch some zzzz's :rofl2: Good nite ya'll!

Do you think is was the cars or the drivers - LOL

Okay - sleepy time for me now.

I'm just trying to get my number of posts up...

The driver's of course! :nutswinger:

Yeah the redhead liked the yellow one....but I heard her say the blue one looked nice, too! So HA! I got some props from her. :p

That's good to hear. My first roadtrip will likely be to Pittsburgh sometime in the near future, to show the car off to my uncle who used to own the 240Z. That mileage is awesome!

I found that to be the most satisfying part of the day.....actually seeing other drivers get OUT of their cars just to snap a picture. And to get some 350 love was cool, too. The guy in the black 350 honked and gave a :tup: when he left....thought that was a nice way to show some love. ;)

She even said Red was perfect... not too dark and not too bright! Oh, and she said you can never go wrong with black!

I'm just glad she didn't shy away......anyone wanna guess if that had been a male driver if he would have:

#1 - even parked as close as she did
#2 - acknowledged our presence

hahaha!

I'm guessing a male driver would have parked right next to you and said "Hey Big Boy, Where ya headed next GI?" :bowrofl:
