Thanks Spohn. Hope ya had a good time. Well as far as the no high banks thing I disagree but WTH are ya goin to do? As I told a frightened "instructor" at Watkins Glen that I met in Carlisle if you don't do anything that might possibly carry a risk you might as well stop living. Actually I told him he should give up walking cause he could get hit crossing the street. But whatever. They haven't proved that the car is any more of a rollover risk than the coupe. I do plan to attend next year if they keep the current policy of allowing verts even if it is off the high banks. I ain't scared.:stirthepot:

It's not that it has a higher rollover risk, but rather that it has a higher rollover consequence.
Miatas aren't allowed at most track events unless they have a hardtop or SCCA road race legal rollbar.

My first autocross event was today. SO FUN.

http://www.the370z.com/members/eazyd...autox-370z.jpg

It was the SCCA Attack of the Cones Event #8 at the Devens Airfield in Mass. I was listed as first place in Novice class and then for whatever reason they later disqualified that fastest lap. I still don't know why. For an hour or two I was thinking I would walk home a hero with a trophy. :shakes head: Still had fun though :) Oil temps were fine, stayed in the top of second gear the whole lap.

EDIT: Yes, that's a the370z.com decal on my quarter window - and yes I wore my the370z.com t-shirt today :tup:

Kewl Easy you probably got the rookie win so we must disqual shaft LOL. Like the painter tape number. Keep it up.
I know Luna but I still think people stress too much, like I said walking has it's own consequences. I had a guy in our car club get hit crossing the street in a cross walk and it almost killed him. He still walks, as good as he can with his wrecked leg.
Anyways I think the event will be kewl next year if they continue to allow the verts.

I was supposed to take delivery today but the Stealership changed my agreed deal to make me pay more money out my a**. They really ruined my day and seriously pissed me off. I am sitting in the dealership for 5 hours to find they changed the numbers when I stepped in the finance office. Crooks. Good luck for them selling that Z, the last Z they sold took 400 days and that is no lie. I was told by the salesman who was the only person who was cool with me. Anyways this is the car I was SUPPOSED to get. UGHH its so pretty, but I will not give that dealer a penny after that stunt. Maybe it wasn't meant to be, who knows.

Quick question guys. Im gonna start a few projects to get ready for ZDAYZ. Good excuse for more mods right? I have 3 things in mind but only have the cash to commit to two before she goes away for the winter. Choice numero uno, front & rear sways. Numero dos, cross drilled rotors w/ upgraded pads & brake lines. Numero tres, oil cooler. I fig I should def do the oil cooler although Id RATHER get choice 1 &2. Thoughts?? Also thoughts/opinions on oil catch cans. Worth it?
