Well that was both a fun and frustrating Solo Nats. Went in to the week as a single driver but after a fellow local had his RX8 lose the transmission at the Pro Finale I had him jump into the Z as the second driver for the Solo Nats part of the week. We started on the east course on day 1 and while my codriver had the times to compete with the top of BSP according to the Solostorm data, the car was having intermittent ABS failures causing severe lockups causing missed braking points and even a DNF.

Luckily on day 2, the ABS issue didn't rear it's ugly head, at least not to what we could tell. My codriver was able to run times near the top guys and according to the data, could have had the top time with just a few adjustments on course.

It was good to see that the car is capable of running at the front in BSP even without an alien driver. If anyone is looking for a class to play in competitively with a 370z, I would encourage you to consider BSP. Honestly you could probably take an STU 370z, put Hoosiers and aero on the car, and be running at the front.
