Goodbye All

Well, after 2 months of ownership I decided today to go back to the Vette.

I really feel the Z is a great value and a very shrp car, but dynamically it just doesn't have the "oomph" of a Vette or...

I took my car on a 250 mile trip today (temps were 91) and just kept an eye on the oil temp. I ran at a fairly constant 220.
