Drove back to N.O. yesterday and then just headed back to Houston for a total of 17 hours of drive time, the last five in my Z. Got in a convoy with a Corvette, Camaro, M3, two pick-ups and me that cruised from Beaumont into Houston at about 95 mph. Fun drive.
Interestingly, over the course of 34 hours with of driving I counted only five Zs on the road, with one being a Nismo. Our cars must really be rare.
It was a great trip with the best race in years. This was race 34 for me. I've attached a few random pictures from Qualifying weekend.
Took the day off to recover. Just finished cleaning the Z. Coffee and Cars this Saturday.
Have a great week everybody.
