Sad day ; my insurance ran out and my Z is in hibernation until next April.
Had a great year;found many great roads and even scared myself a few times.

They're sizing it up. Easier to do the cutout s from the outside.

Apparently, I do not have a sense of depth. I accidently bumped my front bumper to a pillar!!!

Thank goodness the license plate took the brunt of the damage, but now my license plate frame is bent and the bottom lip of the bumper is slightly scratched. What a terrible day.

I gotta admit though, since temperatures are going down, you can feel the Z gaining a bit more hp! Really fun to drive at the moment.

I avoid parking front forward at all costs. Backup camera is so convenient.

I came home much later than usual this evening. It starts off well, no cars for a mile and then passed two SUV's at the only possible spot and had a thrilling drive on a freshly paved mountain road. Heaven.

The down side came when I came around a blind turn with some Asshat sonofabitch scoundrel in a truck was in my lane. I laid on my brakes and let the 7000 RPM's drop to 1000. He got back in his lane, good thing as it turned out as I could not stop in time. But I did come to a stop to have him flip me off. I nearly came unglued.

When you are mad, upset etc driving can have ramifications. I was really mad. I am way too old to let this get to me, but it did. I continued driving uphill and when I got to the top I saw nearly 90, and was about to punch it and go down hill. I finally got hold of myself and brought it down to regular speeding. Although it was an exhilarating drive, I must reiterate do not drive when you are mad.

Damn asshat drivers.

Good advice, and good to hear things turned out well otherwise.

Wow. This is very very true. I curse myself when I let people's behavior influence my own -- no good ever comes of it.

I might be talking out of my butt. But Im flirting with the idea of selling my car. It's definintly not a money thing. I feel like things are so busy around my house with my girl and kids and I'd rather give them attention. Just got a new house and about to get married. One of those things when you grow up with no family. But we'll see. Maybe I'll just do less events. I have a lot into to it just to get rid of it.
