I will toss a friendly plug for the CIN Motorsports guys. Good Z guys all around, they support the Z community and attend many of the southeastern Z events like ZDayZ, etc. CIN has built some cool cars over the years (when you stop by, ask if the Turbo'ed LS1 350Z is hanging around. Word of the wise(r) bring a second pair of underpants).

That is that most most amazing Z I've ever seen or heard.

(I'm not ready to throw in the towel on the Z !!!)
Caterham.

Caterham Cars

You just need to step up and put 350z heads on your car with real engine controller.

Starts at 20k, but can go up to 40k if you have them build it for you and race ready.

Awesome. Travis if you get a chance could you take a pic of your deleted AC and PM it to me? I'd very much appreciate it.
sorry for delay on this... let's see if I can get Bobby and crew to do this - they've got the car now

I'm sure they appreciate that Dustin, and you should know that when I was talking it through with them they actually gave you guys a positive plug.

Both good options, thanks! Hope we're all hanging around here on page 242, which will be around the time I'm ready to make this decision! :)

Dustin, would you please PM a quote to ship a NISMO rear bumper cover / fascia to CIN motorsports? No emblem, no mounting hardware. Ideally, painted brilliant silver. Thanks.

I spoke too soon... received an email update from Bobby 30 mins ago

"Your [engine] is running my man! and seems to sound ok too. Bobby CIN Motorsports"

Relief!... There's no question one of the oil lines was completely lose, but it must have blown off right after I pulled off track and shut it down.

And of course Bobby is living up to his reputation - working deep into Saturday night. I picked the right shop!

Nice! Congrats Travis. Sounds like you'll be back on track soon.
