I enjoyed our chat.

I did the Dragon 4 times. Each time I came up on slower cars. So I backed down and enjoyed the ride.

Next year you need to meet up with us at the country store at Fontana at 6:45am. We leave at 7:00am. No Traffic. I was there every morning. It was awesome.

Oh Yeah, NO OLD MAN excuses...LOL

I'm looking to put 345's on the back of my z in the next couple weeks. Before I order wheels I was curious how much room do you have on the inside. Could you move your offset in more? Also what suspension do you have? Thanks

I'm on stock Nismo suspension for now. Have about an inch of clearance between the tire and shock body at the top of the tire. If running true type coilovers in the rear. The tire may hit the shock spring, depending on the diameter of the spring.

Did you get your ATI damper installed yet or is it still in the box like mine?

Still in the box. Haven't had time. Since I retired. I've been more busy then I've ever have.

Remodeled the kitchen, building a retaining wall in the back yard, refinishing all the interior doors in the house. Been to ZDayZ. With the motorhome, spent 10 days at Table Rock Lake Missouri, 4 days at Rausch Creek 4 wheeling the Power Wagon. Just got back from a 6000 mile, 30 day tour.

From Brownsville Pa, to Denver, to Colorado Springs, to Bloomfield NM, to Chama NM, to Midland Tx, to San Antonio Tx, to Houston Tx, with quick stops at New Orleans, Jackson Miss, Memphis, Nashville, Columbus Oh. Taking a 8 day cruise next month.

Your Nismo is going to forget its way around the race track with so much neglect!

Going from a 41ft motorhome, towing a Grand Cherokee. To the Nismo is going to be a shock.

Getting back on the track is going to be another thing.

Signed up for a HPDE in Phoenix on September 10th. I can't wait, it's a night event as well.

You should tow your Z around the country for a Nationwide track days tour
