Oh haha well then. I told my friend that the wing looked like the amuse wing but didn't really think anything of it in the moment. Not used to seeing many 370 with stuff done to them so I was trying to take in the moment.

Not sure on the blue wheels either lol. I'd have black especially on that. But to each their own right? Haha still looked sick!

You were haha Im sorry. Guess I need to look more closely next time... I really was mesmerized though when I first saw it, I just thought it was a nismo.

Lots of Z's showed up to this auto-x. One 240Z, two 350, two 370s and a 370 Nismo. I can really get a feel for the car now. I know where I can be faster but there is a limit (either the car, my skills, or setup). Instead of Koni yellows I'm probably just going to keep money aside for another set of RE11s. Driving around to all these events is starting to take effect on the front tires.

Oh yeah, brake cooling: I might have to bump up in class just to run the stillen brake coolers. My brakes were cooking today. There was smoke coming out after the runs, the fluid didn't look like it was boiling over but you can see the deposits on the rotors. I started to fan the brakes down with the rear mat support, it was the only MacGyver solution I could think off.

This was my fastest run, resulting in a 43.480, no cones, 1st in CS, 9th in PAX, RAW placing wasn't listed with the results.

I also used it to remove the adhesive from the fenders of my newest atv (warning stickers that covered the entire thing). Just sprayed it on and it wiped right off!

Wow..... Seems like I haven't been on here in forever. Last couple of weeks have been crazy. The poor Z hasn't moved since I got back from the mountain cruise. Well aside from a good wash.

What is everyone up to? Anyone interested in a dinner meet either next week or the week after?

HKYStormFront · 05-16-2012, 05:33 PM
