Looking forward to that Mike! Mind dropping a few links here for the clubs that run in Florida at the southeast more generally? I need to start doing some research... any events coming up in March I should know about? Thanks!

just mapped out track positions vs new home base... doesn't seem unreasonable!

the one in the north is jennings... appears to be motorbike only, but I wonder if that will change? looks like a decent course layout... not sure how wide the track is though

If your ever in Naples/ft.myers then hit me up bro. We'll have a lil car meet.

travisjb · 02-07-2011, 12:32 AM

^ will do thanks Jon!

by the way, here's a look at the Z as of today... ditched the headlights! haha

using the same acrylic headlight covers you've probably seen on ebay/amazon

also added a gurney flap to rear wing, reversed the direction of the wing end plates, and corner balanced the car for this event... weight is somewhere around 3,150 with me in it and half tank of fuel

Car is looking great Travis and looked very stable on track as well.

m4a1mustang · 02-07-2011, 08:17 AM

Looking good!

if I saw that on the street I would laugh at first sight from 100 yards, then when I saw it close, I wouldn't make eye contact from fear. "Guess I'll take the long way to Sonic today"

Meanest looking Z on the forum hands down. Very nice man, I hope you come down soon so I can check it out!

where are you going to be settling?

Jennings has or at least had some issues with retaining walls right in the runoff areas. didn't look too safe.

I run with
Asphalt Ventures
Triangle Z Club/Tarheel Sports Car Club
MVP Tracktime
BMWCCA
PCA

we also have Chin and Nasa and a couple other organizations.

Don't forget Hooked on Driving also runs at a bunch of these tracks...

Endgame · 02-08-2011, 12:41 AM
