To everyone else... Your opinion is nice & all, but I don't think you should be really bashing the OP this much. He's having fun, he's learning how to go sideways, and messing up is all a part of the game. Yeah so he's not driving the Z the way you think he should be.. So what? It's not YOUR car. I'm through 3 full sets of tires since this march. Does that make me an idiot too? Because I actually take this car to its fullest potential 110% of the time? Think about it...

Don't just judge a person by a clip of 10 seconds of their life. He didn't murder anyone. He's learning. And all of you here ****** up more than once in your life too. We all have.
Sounds like yours could be sold 1 owner, always garaged, never driven hard, certified preowned.

Thanks for that. I was starting to think I was alone here.

Btw to everyone else I've decided to buy a 240 and play with that instead. The Z is just gonna stay a daily driver/weekend warrior.

I don't think we should give him such a hard time. He was on a road to nowhere and had a friend scoping things out. If he hurt someone, it was only going to be himself. I've done way dumber **** than this. Fortunately, I made it to be older and wiser (also wider).

I swear I think some of you think these cars have hearts and souls... It's a machine peeps. That is all.
