That's why I click the little "remember me" option.

We often compete against guys who use PowerPoint and screen shots and "blah, blah, blah" to prove business cases -- Lazy, Lazy, Lazy.

When we try to talk people into spending 6 figures with us -- which takes many months, we really want to prove they should.
If I never get to see another PowerPoint slideshow, it'll be too soon. Everybody sees fit to use them. I for one think it shows an amazing lack of imagination... It takes absolutely no brain power to create a PowerPoint slideshow. When i watch one it kinda makes me feel the same as when I see kids with motorized scooters! I just want to yell out the window to cut the engine and push the thing. Maybe there wouldnt be so much childhood obesity then!

Pretty much everything I buy at work end up costing six figures!

I hate effing with fax machines. I mess with command line interfaces in routers and switches all day, yet usually wind up screwing up a single page fax.

Finished detailing my car for the first time in the 3 years that I've owned it. Didnt do the interior yet, just a good clay bar and wax on the exterior. The paint is so jacked up from sitting out in the sun for 3 years now, it makes me a little sad, but then I remember that it's run into a wall at 30 or so MPH and I stop crying :-p

Damn that looks GREAT..

I know, I saw your Video, and I was like OH NO.. That is something we all hate to see..

But at least you are enjoying your Z and testing the limits...

But it looks great.

Thank ya.

**** happens on the track - once I got over it, I dusted myself off and moved on. The repair bill wasn't fun, but it only made me a better driver for it in the end.

The car is far from perfect - the front bumper is all sorts of jacked with chips and stuff. Roof has some weird clearcoat oddities. Some little chips on my doors that need some touch-up paint, and one of my doors has some good scratches from (I think) my neighbors kid kicking it while running around their car. Couple curb marks on the wheels.

Oh well, I'll get a Porter-Cable soon enough here and get rid of the majority of issues, and it'll be decent. She isn't bad for a banged-up girl, and still looks clean enough for me.

I hear ya...I am prepared for damage to my car when I track it..I don't want any, but it can happen. That is why it would be the Z/28...The 370Z is the Wife's baby, and I would be dead if I tracked it, let alone hurt it..

Also I used to be completely Anal/O.C.D. with my cars to a fault.

I am better at letting some thing go... It isn't easy but if I don't I will drive myself nutts, and never drive them...

So glad you are rolling with it and enjoying the hell out of it...

Also a few feet away, you won't notice it..


I find that the only people that notice and complain are people with beater cars.. They walk up to my Z/28 with 30K in mods and say,"oh, you have a crack in your spoiler"...WTF where is their car ??

So, you rode her hard and you cleaned her up...
