Cruised out to Marble Falls on 1431 and then headed back to town. On the way back, we passed a GM Z going the other way. A few miles later he's behind us and we cruise into Lago Vista together. Asked him if he wanted to stop and he said "follow me". Next thing I know, we're cruising up this winding and hilly road with absolutely zero traffic pushing the Z at almost every curve

It was freaking awesome, if a bit squirrely with VDC off. The video starts part way in and does not do it justice, but you can at least get an idea. Thanks Pint for doing video

I wish I would have known that the start of the road was that turn. I would have been ready with the camera.

Totally had fun though, thanks for driving JAR!

Took my baby out down 360 and back up Loop 1 afterwards. Bad idea since EVERYONE and their mama is on the road right now. Still managed to get her into triple digits on the tollroad. I love my baby.

Working on getting the vids uploaded now but it still might take forever. Slow interwebs is slow.

Would you care for another $325?

Keep it safe Ms. Pint. We want to keep you coming back to the board!

Really? Everyone else is allowed to talk about how they speed but I'm not? I'm not a princess, I can handle myself. I know the roads where I can and cannot hit those speeds safely and not around other drivers.

For the record. I was not speeding today. It was an illusion of time and space. Try that one on the next cop that pulls you over

I've been thinking about trying something other than my microfiber-covered sponge. Perhaps I'll give that a shot.

I was looking for the microfiber mitt in Google images and spotted this:

Anybody see anything wrong here?

I totally missed the open window until Mr. Bucket said something

happytheman · 07-22-2012, 03:26 PM

Uh oh...Wrong room.

Honestly, I would've said that to anyone..and wasn't singling you out.

ZMan8 · 07-22-2012, 03:48 PM

I had a nice ChicagoZ meet today.

And of course it's not compete unless you try to pack in some girls into the Z

Is that Ni55anPat's Monterey Z?

I'm guessing that was at a Tilted Kilt?

Nice pics.

Cuban Z · 07-22-2012, 05:01 PM

Missing my baby...her audio won't be ready till Monday evening cause I added something special.

kenchan · 07-22-2012, 06:20 PM

uhh... goodAM folks...?

hope you guys are having a great sunday!

mr.onzedge- looking good!

motored my Z this am and QD'ed afterwards. had a great time.

did more testing on mic for gopro and im still getting electret diaphragm saturation at WOT going into the expressway. i need to position the mic another 6-8inches forward. i should get a SPL meter and find out exactly how many decibels my car's pushing.

it's not THAT loud though. hummm... i dont feel like getting another mic, but for sure these 3v plug-in power mics are dynamically challenged vs self-powered/48v phantom powered mics.
