I live about an hour and a half from it.

The roads I was out on today, though, were all out west by Frederick. And the pic I took was at Pretty Boy Dam.

Sorry to hear that Red. Everytime I get in mine the LAST thing I am is bored. What are you considering as a replacement? If its a new junkstang I'd seriously consider sobering up before placing the for sale sign on her.

it's ok kenchan, one less person to complain about the so called "deficiencies" in the Z as he has seemed to have done ever since i joined the forums. No offense Red, but it gets tiring reading your posts when every other one of them is a complaint against the Z and how you want to get rid of it. GL with your next purchase though man and hope you get what you want out of your next car

There's just nothing that really interests me to do with it. I can throw on some rims and brakes, a proper LSD, and maybe a supercharger...but I don't think I'll be happy with it. I got into the Z thinking it'd be something fun to DD that I could keep the warranty, but I think I want more. No point staying with the Z if I'm going FI...I will probably build another AP1 before FI'ing the Z.

We will see how it goes. There haven't been many biters on the car at this price, and I like it enough not to undersell it. I may hang onto it. I think with the right mods it may turn out to be a better car. I will probably have a better LSD in later on, and I think that may sort out some things. Proper rubber will help a bit more as well. I just don't know what I'm going to do for power.

Having ridden in m4's mustang on the dragon, I have to say it felt significantly more composed than the Z, not to mention much more powerful.
