A short Narrative.

osbornsm

Most of you have seen my threads by now. I've got the Alignment sticky, the Track Prep sticky, the Lug Nuts sticky... ya know the nit-picky stuff.
- Yes, the images are large. Moving on...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In 2011 I purchased a new 370z

I bought summer tires


I bought winter tires


I summer tires as track tires - don't do this btw


I bought track brakes


I had about 20 track days on this 370z.
I learned how to drive RWD because of this car.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In March of 2018 a 23 year old girl t-boned the Z while i was traveling approximately 35mph. The impact was just behind the front wheel... crumpling the firewall, a-pillar, and frame mounting point. After the repair estimate came back at $9,500 it was considered a total loss.

I DROVE IT HOME FROM THE ACCIDENT
- At which point it was picked up from my driveway on a flatbed and brought to CoPart.
- I bet it doesn't drive straight now



----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not to end on a sad-note, so i shall introduce the 370z's replacement...

Meet the 2018 SS 1LE


From near as i can tell by the power and sound... the Camaro SS is powered by a dragon. For those of you who don't know, 1LE package = Chevy's "track package" including:

• adjustable shocks
• adjustable traction control
• 2-piece rotors
• black hood
• black wheels
• black mirrors
• black spoiler
• brake ducts
• trans oil and diff coolers

I never pictured myself with this car, but nor did i picture having my loved Z ripped from my arms. So making lemonade.

Cheers
