What did you do with your Z today II

Fire · 02-20-2012, 08:09 PM

No happy, going to watch it on tv. Did take a tour of the track a few years ago, very kewl.

I waxed the 370 today -- nose to tail -- just in time to put her to bed and travel to a Microsoft office in Irvine tomorrow for the day. Joy of joys. I need to brush up on my buzzwords tonight so I can embrace technology in a customer-centric ecosystem tomorrow and circle back to a competive advantage I can leverage in the market on a go-forward basis to create a true strategic imperative among my company's stakeholders.

Konis did not go in this weekend either because of this:

Saturday next they are going in -- come hell or high water -- just in time to go to Utah the following week. Geesh. Work is once again seriously messing with my Z time.

Looking forward to hearing about your Koni install Mr. Onzedge.

You'll be down in my neck of the woods tomorrow. I go to that same Microsoft office a few times every year.

Yeah, but I am only there for the day unfortunately. Flying out tomorrow morning and back tomorrow night.

Even though it's supposed to rain thursday I went ahead and spent a couple of hours washing, claying, polishing and waxing the car.

happytheman · 02-20-2012, 10:27 PM

Nice, it's not too often that you hear of someone going through all four steps! So many people clay without polishing! Can I assume you used a random orbital for the polish and wax?

I bought my Z today!

happytheman · 02-20-2012, 11:33 PM

Congratulations, and welcome to the club!

Welcome!

GREAT group of misfits here with an incredible passion for their cars, sushi, charburgers, and spending outragious amounts of money on a car that's already the best value performance-wise off the showroom floor!

gurneyeagle · 02-21-2012, 07:27 AM

Good morning all!

Finally coming out of the black abyss that is the year-end reporting cycle (I'm an accountant).

Like I said yesterday, drove the Z for the first time out on some open hilly and twisty roads north of Houston with some friends on Sunday. What a blast. I'm nowhere near yet close to the limits of the car, but really not interested in finding out either.

I had spent the past two weeks driving Mrs. Gurney's MDX to work as she was recovering from some surgery. It really got me thinking about getting a daily driver although my round trip commute is only 15 miles and I really love driving the Z.

Getting back into the Z from the MDX was definitely a shock to the system - felt like I was in go cart. I really love this car!

Looking forward to Daytona this weekend. Happy - we have to hook-up one day as I spent my summers growing up in Melbourne/Indialantic/Satellite Beach with my Mom's side of the family. I really miss the area. I attended the 24 Hour race at Daytona from 1979 through 1995; always a blast. Basically a camping trip with a car race going on. Also attended Sebring during the same time frame. Unbelievable cars and access to drivers back then.

I'm down in the Orlando area at least twice a year. Usually head over to KSC to tour each time. Behind cars, the Space program is a huge interest for me. Got to see a number of early manned Gemini and Apollo launches growing-up, including the big one - Apollo 11. One of the highlights of my life.

Have a great week all.

Mike
