Went to pop the hood on my 1975 280zt and the darn thing won't open. Boy was I pissed. Something else to fix. I did drive it for about 30min and topped it off with gas.

Put on RE-11s this weekend. Got an alignment and state inspection (2 months overdue) this morning. Approximately 700 miles of

scheduled for tomorrow.

Now I just need that 500whp he's got under the hood of the z06... It was a perfect day.

Correction (not that anyone cares in the slightest lol) - Z06 was running NT05s, not Invos. Still got worked, of course!

A nice 240Z was there, at Katies, not the MAZOC gathering, although, I here some of the MAZOC guys have smoking early model Z's

Katie's/Old Brogue is my absolute favorite C&C in the area! Amazing turnout there, hundreds of thousands of $ worth of beauties, friendly people and good food and coffee. Next time you go let's try and link up!

I will keep that in mind next time around. Z_Stig was there this last weekend. There are a couple of guys in FRS crowd that I hang out with. I used to work with one of them. He has turbocharged his FRS and is getting 400+ to the wheels. Now he needs brakes. PTuning sometimes uses his car as a test bed.

That's a much more fair fight. You get a lot more credit now

I totally forgot to mention that the tech who handed me the keys asked me if I put premium in it and then proceeded to tell me that I have spark knock

No, I put diesel in it and my tuner has that $hit super lean on purpose

That noise you're unfamiliar with is VVEL
