Hello all ... tried to post a message earlier but it seem to get lost in the void - don't think I violated any posting rules.









This car is now my new Daily driver ... I'm new to Z's but have a lot of real world racing experience racing in Lotus Cup USA series. I have considerable mechanical and electrical abilities as I do all my own work (including the race car).

Big hello to all.

Cheers, Rob.

Thanks all.

If there are any track rats present in need of an instructor for CA tracks and some one-on-one feel free to contact me.

Here is my racing resume over the past 14 years:

I'm most likely going to keep my Z bone stock, but have a friend getting a SC kit for his 350z and will be helping him out (I think) with install/setup.

Cheers, Rob.

Oops, sorry for the invalid YouTube links, every forum seems to handle YouTube links differently ... corrected.

Just enjoyed a nice drive up the CA coast to Fort Bragg yesterday, very impressed with the Z ride quality, grip, engine performance even down low, and it's so quiet!

Thanks for the warm welcome.

Some Z t-shirts have been ordered

Cheers, Rob.

Hopefully ... I'm a little worried I might be too old and crusty.

Cheers, Rob.

Welcome. I've got a place in the city but my Z is out "home" with me in the denver hills. My wife is antsy to go back to the bay, but for now I'm a Colorado guy. She will win of course, and I'll be back out your way soon.
