Possibly the post of the year, and definitely must-do reading for anyone going on a cruise and thinking they are a race car driver.

You really don't know what you don't know. You have to scare yourself sh1tless in a car at speed on a real race track to have any appreciation for what wstar just said.

Uber rep to you sir!

I know we could get ten guys to do this. Easily. If wstar could attend just as a mentor, that would be great.

If Houston can go 24 hours without pissing-off anyone else on the Board, we might invite him too! Just kidding big guy!

Probably something to do in the fall as I'm pretty much booked up through September with vacation and work trips.

Definitely doable.

Im in if you can round up some more Z's. Just let me know when in advanced so i can request some leave time.

Side note:
Silver sport on 79 from Round Rock to Hutto. Didn't seem to want to look my way when they finally passed me. Don't worry, Im not much of a street racer these days lol.

I see a black sport or 40th on 183 East... I'm in a white FX50

Nice yellow 370Z SP at 183/McNeil about 9 this morning

rep'ing san antonio. we've got a few in my area...but we're all shitty drivers (as anyone who's been in SA will tell you)

(new to the forum btw)

[wstar]

The problem with SA is the highways, a bunch of the curves are banked wrong. Scary if you're going fast and don't expect it. Well that and the surfaces are in a pretty bad state of disrepair in places. Nice people and good food though, I love visiting the city .

Got cut off at the junction of 610/I10/290 near the Galleria in Houston buy someone showing off in a White 370 with sport rims a couple days ago. Almost hit me, as I was accelerating at the moment. Be respectful on the roads guys, especially to other Z drivers.

people are great, as is the food everyone just likes to take their time and check out the scenery. e.g. driving home from work yesterday = stuck behind a tahoe doing 40 in a 60. and if there's a wreck/hint of rain...baby jesus save us all.

I would say that was me, but I have yet to see another Z and I would not cut off a fellow Z. I drive my Suv most of the time that's when I see all the other Z's. I do a lot of showing off though!

Oh, that's just jennyt cruising the roads of Texas checking for pot holes, making it safe for all of us!

PW Nismo northbound Mopac south of Parmer around 11:30 am yesterday. I was in the southbound lanes in my Accord.

I'm in that neighborhood. Possible it's the one five houses down the street from me that showed up a couple months ago. I've only seen them like twice and was leaving the house both times. Then there's another PW (base I think) three doors further down that showed up just a few weeks ago. I need to walk the dog that direction more to see if I run into them. Next time I meet up with you guys, Auston, can I grab a two of those Z cards you had made to pass on?
