Oh man...how bad is the damage? Too bad we didn't get to talk more than the 2 seconds we did at the pull off spot on the dragon. Your car looks great and sounds awesome, too! But I may be a bit bias to your color choice, haha.

Thanks, man. Gray FTW! I absolutely love the 40th gray -- with your wheels and bodywork it looks perfect. :tup:

The damage to my splitter wasn't too bad. It pulled the front splitter out from the driver's side and scuffed the bumper/plastic. The scuffs came out and I was able to pop the splitter back in for the most part, but I might need to order a new one since it still looks like it isn't fitting just right, but we'll see.

Thanks. Those NT-05's I'm running are noisy. I call them the "tires who cry wolf" because they sound the "impending doom" alarm waaaaay before they let go.

I'm still getting used to the different sound/feel relationship with these things.

Unfortunately. You can click on the link in my sig for full details, but my power steering pump blew due to a blown hose, battery fuse blew, and wiring harness melted...but I'm now making 500+whp:tup:

WOOT WOOT, thats me and my crappy NY plates in the exhaust sound off pic LOL... Great pics everyone, I had such a good time and met so many cool people. It was the funniest thing when I met Dustin over at Z1 and we started going on and on about Z's (of course) and I look over and My GF is having a conversation with his fiancee, its like we all knew each other for years LOL. We dont get that type of stuff in NY. I need to move.

I spell it John on most things cause like a bunch of funny peeps my teachers told me to spell it that way. Then like good parents my parents didn't say anything. After I found out I started trying to change it. Public country schooling FTW! I like John better cause Jon just seems strange.

That looks much better than it did on the tiny monitor! Thanks for posting that man.

You can even see my make the right at the very beginning before the left.

Is this from the very beginning of your video or did you have to edit out some dead space? (I would like to see about 2-3 seconds before where it starts here)

That's all I have, you caught me by surprise.
Some motorcycle was making a lot of noise and I didn't hear you coming.
Also you still having stock exhaust didn't help either. :bowrofl:

You should ask the manufacturer of your splitter to give you a new one, yours is clearly defective. :)

Nope, I've never been. That's an hour drive from me...so it's hard to make it out there in time after I get off of work.

finally got done with the group photo (was waiting on the graphic), so here it is. to take this shot they lined up approx 120 cars door to door, put me up about 50' in the air in a boom truck and i took about 30 shots at various settings and this was my best one:

Nay, sir, I was driving the dragon while that one was being shot.

Busiest run I had the whole time, too. 2 in the afternoon iirc? couldn't really drive fast.

thinking it was more 4ish but i can't remember... it wasn't long before the closing dinner

Ah, then I was getting back from my run around 3 or so. But it's a nice shot!
