So not today, and not my Z, but yesterday after working on 2 guys' 370's, I took one out for a test drive with one of the owners following in the other. At a stop light, we were spaced one lane apart. When it turned green, a BMW M3 drove past us as we were casually taking off from a stop. So I jumped on it, and the other Z gunned it, and we blew past the M3 from either side, exhaust screaming the same note (they have identical mods). Must've made that driver piss his suit pants. :D

Please note that the above description was done in a controlled environment and was not street racing of any kind.

This was all done while obeying the speed limit, right?

Be nice to that poster -- I think he is one of my sons. In fact, I am certain. :icon17:

Driving slower than the speed limit will attract more attention than driving a little above. Looks suspicious

I drove it 5 hours from Sacramento back to SLO. On I5 on the way home I had a rock crack my windshield!!!!!!! Boooooo Rocks Boooooooo!!!!!!! It is a really small crack at this point but right in the drivers view. I can have one of the guys stop it from spreading but it will allows annoy me. Might have to fork out the cash for new one.

Salem 04-23-2012 08:19 PM

Bum deal. Thanks for coming by yesterday. We were all happy to meet you and see another well modded 40th.
