Whats the longest road trip you have had in the Z?

houkouonchi · 07-18-2012, 09:24 PM

In a bit less than two weeks I will be driving from Los Angeles area to Dallas, TX for quakecon (1400 miles).

I was curious what the longest road trips others have had in their Z?

Quakecon! Sweet!

Sadly the longest trip my Z has ever made is like 20 miles... but it's still just a baby.

Longest Ive done is about 300 miles. Was perfectly fine. Didnt feel the need to stretch after getting out. Got there fairly quickly too, all highway... hmmm and 26.8mpg

1,000 miles. Very comfortable.

Sounds good! I hope to make it out there in less than 30 hours if I can. We shall see.

I think so far the longest road trip I have done in my Z is from Ontario, CA to chuckwalla valley raceway right on the border of California (200 miles I think?).

200miles.

1,400 miles. Entertaining vehicle to drive.

1000+ miles to the dragon, on the dragon, on hell bender and the skyway then 1000+ miles back.

nepali · 07-18-2012, 11:26 PM

About 400 miles...and it was not tiring at all.

I would have driven your nismo at any point if you wanted.

You long-distance people.... anybody with non-touring? I find these cloth seats make my legs tired very quickly. Maybe it's because I have long legs.

St. Louis, MO to Atlantic City, NJ....~950 miles.

Easy and comfortable
