What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Finally installed my Invidia Gemini exhaust. I got it a week ago but I've been nursing a dislocated shoulder.

This afternoon I'm changing the wheels back to stock so I don't have to worry about them tomorrow when the car is getting worked on.

Oh, I took a couple more pictures with the new shoes. I promise next year the car body panels will all be the same colour.

So this is actually Monday. The first lap is under yellow. This is me learning the track for the first time, and it rained earlier.

At 5K-7K RPM's, I can't hear with a helmet on, to what the mentor is telling me. By the end of the day I was improving.

First look at Thunderhill Raceway in a 370Z - YouTube

Very cool. I am sorry that my Mom obligations kept me from attending -- she was not feeling up to a trip in the Z to the race track Monday. Please keep me in mind for your next event, OK?
