Sounds like a long day, Mr. Kenchan. Some nice flame broiled meat always helps me unwind after a long day.

It might get cold enough here tonight to put on long-sleeves. These winters are killing me.

Mrs. Dr. onzedge is a great cook as well, but Friday is "go out to dinner" night usually, followed by watching a quick episode of Justified on demand and then early bed.

I am still undecided about Koni install tomorrow due to a rather large domestic to do list.

ahh, that's a nice arrangement. hope you find some time to get those koni's installed. i too am very busy on the weekends usually. lots of house chores and home maintenance stuff to do, run errands, family time, etc. this is why even in the summer time i only get about 3hrs max per day to play with my cars sat and sun.

Mr. Onzedge I think the mrs. Will understand that the Z is broken until the Konis are in place.

I worked from home today so that I could work on mid month forcasts without interuptions. This allowed me to take the Z out for lunch followed by a spirited little run through wine country roads. Normally I drive the truck to work today was nice.

Also took some pics of a new set of AEM intakes that are about to be put up for sale in the classified section. Go check them out and buy them!!!!

Do you want her cell phone number? It sounds like you could explain that much better than I could.

Now that would be funny! You sir are a bery humorous man, and I for one think you should take this act of yours on the road.... Of course, this is something that I'd be happy to explain to the Mrs. as well, if necessary.

Are you also going to weld the doors shut and take the windows out in lieu of some mesh?

I kid, I kid! I do wonder though how much weight reduction removing the OEM wheel and airbag netted you? Man, ate you considering taking this hobby to the next level and doing some amateur racing (unless you already are)?

I have already removed all the airbags in the car. Even the steering wheel. From the best I could tell it was about three pounds.

As far as it goes to what level I'm going to take it to is hard to say. I love to drive my car on the streets and not ready to lose that completely yet. I want a balance of both street and track. In which you can do a lot of track related things to the car and still be good. I just want the most from my track days. I'm thinking of yanking the radio and speakers out now. And the battery reloction kit is coming also. Next year might be my big step with glass and AC.

I really can't wait for the steering wheel. After installing my race seats they sit higher than stock. I hate it. So with the removable steering wheel I can remove the sliders (also removing weight, hehe) and mount the seats to my brakets only to make them lower.
