Yeah, I'm not that active as far as meet and the like but please do give me a link for the PNW_INC

Lol at the part out too. He is still waiting for the insurance's company's decision. He was just on his way home from work. We have plenty of asswipe SUV drivers here discriminating us Z drivers all the time. I'm glad he's not in a cast but do complain about his neck all the time.

Take care fellow Z drivers.

No way a mini van has a shorter stopping distance than that z.

I am fairly certain in that scenario rhe z comes all the way to a dead stop and still has several feet to spare.... just saying.

Braking from 60 to 0 requires 103 ft in a z unless you have this happen:

But that would require a good 10 back to back panic stops.

A mini van needs about 130 feet to stop from 60....assuming it is a newer model with new brakes,,,
