I'm tempted, but there is a lot of snow melt and that Satanic Salt around here. Need a good heavy rain to wash it away. :|

Decide in haste, repent at leisure.

WELL! Today was the PERFECT Z-day. 57*, sunny, light breeZe, not bad traffic, dry/clean roads. Took the 240 out for a 95 mile-spin, 3.5hrs, 1/2 tank of fuel. I think I visited maybe 8-9 different towns on backroads and 3 on the highway. Shifted up @5500-6000 rpm, which equates to EXACTLY 55mph (honest, officer!) :roll: Car runs well but needs a bath.

Stopped for fuel on the way home and some construction guys at the next pump were admiring the Z. Everybody has a Z story and one of the guys was telling me about this Z owner he met whose son was killed on a motorcycle right in front of his family, when a stoner girl ran a redlight. Our member Colin Foote. It was a surpriZe to meet someone from outside our 'family' who knew the story, but he had it exactly correct. It gave me an excuse to drive for Colin a little on the way home.

Today was a glorious day indeed . . . . . took a ride to one of my high school friends shop up in West Springfield to show him the 300.
He is currently restoring and refurbishing porsche's :thumbs_up:
We stretched it out a bit this car is a lil faster then the 75' :P :P
Put another 40 miles on it. Really like driving this car 8)
