I will soon be back at my place on Prince Edward Island Canada for a while, and I am planning a road trip this spring to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. I'll drive the Cabot Trail. Awesome road and scenery see:

Map of Cabot Trail

Anyone want to join me? A "Z" rally through the Canadian Maritimes!

I also plan on attending the racing/drivers school at Atlantic Motorsports Park in May sometime, which will then allow me to test the Z during "open track" in the afternoon.

Can't wait!

Vipor, if you get a sore shoulder try a different hand position. The most comfortable positions to have your hands on longer driving is towards the bottom of the wheel, either 8 & 4 (vs 10 & 2), or even a little lower if you are just cruising. Your shoulder will be less fatigued because you elbows will be better supported.

As for fit, I'm 6'1 and have about 1 1/2 inches of headroom with the seat all the way down. With racing helmet on my head is mashed into the roof but not uncomfortably so. Need to watch those roof rails if you are tall, it's all too easy to slam your head into it.

Dang it, I KNEW there was something I forgot to pack for my little vacation!!! :rofl2:

I have no idea where that is but sounds beautiful! I will be going up to a place called "Harrison Hot Springs" in Canada in a couple months...unfortunately, I'm flying into Bellingham,WA and will be driving a rental car with a friend up there, not my Z! I go to a spa up there once a year with a couple girlfriends, so beautiful!

Cape Breton is east of Prince Edward Island Canada, north of New Brunswick. Beautiful country and awesome roads (nice and smooth, no traffic, etc.). And the home of some GREAT Celtic rock musicians (Ashley MacIsaac, Natalie MacMaster, Slainte Mhath, to name a few). There's a Celtic music festival there in October (called Celtic Colours Festival), bands playing in every town almost.

A bit far from the west coast though..............too bad!

I grew up around 30 minutes south of Bellingham and I did my undergraduate work at WWU in Bellingham. It's beautiful in NW Washington and SW BC. Taking the North Cascade Highway (north Highway 20) over the mountains in summer would be awesome in a Z.

Small world...my parents live out in Acme..off the 8 (I think?) I imagine that little road through there to Sedro Wooley would be a fun drive in the Z as well! :) I was born in Washington state :)

That's highway 9 from Bellingham (off the Mt Baker Highway) to Woodinville. Awesome drive -- I used to drive it to Sedro in my old Fiat 124 Spider -- when I wasn't jigglin' the wires under the dashboard to get the fuel pump to work ;)

Yeah I need to figure something out for the whole helmet issue. I'm 6'5'' and I do not fit with my helmet on. Going to have to modify the seat or go in the direction of an aftermarket one.

Too Cool...Nobody EVER knows where places like Acme and Sedro Wooley are! Hey, what about the drive around that one lake out there...I bet that would be nice too...Lake Whatcom? Ahh..reminiscing!

The passenger seat is considerably lower, so there is definitely room to spare if you go with a different seat.

I love a good road trip. :driving: as you can see here: http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-g...tml#post191567

BTW, my Z turned 1 year old on January 17th - 23,464 enjoyable, trouble-free miles.
