Balls of steel... or just crazy! I used to live in Jersey City and passed through Newark often. Though why I have no idea... Oh wait, yes I do, her name was...

Have fun guys. I have the walkie talkis. Ill. Bring it at the next run.

wtf yo! thought you were coming???
i'm gonna be the lonely drew tomorrow

Haha, the Drew trifecta will be reduced to a one Andrew wolf pack.

I am heading out of the dorm, see y'all in a little while!

Hey guys, fun drive today. Hopefully everything turns out okay with Nelson. Didn't think about it at the time, but I think corner/object fixation might have the culprit here. Looking towards the end of the turn is key.

This is my first time in the canyons in years....literally. It's funny how some of the roads are still familiar even after not driving them in some time. I have more power now, but I think I might have been faster in the Z (Nismo 350Z) through the tight stuff. With that car I was more comfortable powering out of turns. With this car I have to feather it more to keep the back end in line, especially with the narrow lanes. I usually ride with VDC/DSC off, but ended up turning it back on today. Guess I just have to get use to the car.

Looking forward to the vids.

It was good seeing everyone that showed up. :)

Update: Just want to thanks everyone for helping me out especially dj. I just sent info and pictures to my insurance agent.

Again I am sorry for ruining everyone morning with my little incident. Since I will be out of a z for some time, see you guys in a bit.

No need to appologize, And good to hear from you. Keep us posted on the progress, And hope to seeing you again once she's fixed. :tup:

The important thing is youre ok nelson...the car can always be fixed

What happened? Hope it was not serious and you are OK.

I agree, thanks for coming out everyone! I had a blast, especially with my ride of terror with Vic haha. It was a beautiful day (albeit a bit warm) and you can't beat the good company. It will probably take a little while for my videos to upload but I will have pictures up tonight, I can't wait to see the footage from Andrew and Chris.

Next up will be Ojai, dates will be proposed and we can decide what works for most of you guys.

Nelson: don't even worry, we will always have your back. Sometimes things happen and cars can be fixed/replaced but you can't be. I sincerely hope this doesn't scare you away from the meets, it is always a pleasure to have you around. :)

He decided to get new wheels. :happydance:

And no need to apologize man.

If I still have a working z, I will be at the next run. :rofl2:


Dude, I already ordered my wheels a month ago. Zero know this. lol. Good thing the wheels got delayed. If they weren't, they would have be damaged.

:icon18: I was thinking that too, and then I thought, "Damn I'm spoiled. I'm actually finding a reason to talk sh** about a warm day in January!" LOL.

Dude, we're all just glad you are okay. You might have given us a scare, but "ruin" is far from our minds. If you feel really sore in the morning, you might want to think about getting checked out, just in case. I think you'll be fine, but it never hurts to be sure.

^I was just joking.

Was your suspension damaged? Maybe you could pull off some coilovers or aftermarket springs/shocks with the insurance money.

Wouldn't really be drivable that way, but your car did look really aggressive with the front bumper that low to the ground lol.
