I, too, took my sleeping Z out on a dry sunny day recently, heading down a quiet parkway toward the beach. While entering the parkway and getting up to speed one of those new Infinity sport coupes came up along side me with them there dark tinted windows. Well golly! What's a guy to do?

As he (or she) passed I got in line behind. Pedal down and fun keeping up until the triple digits were coming up. That new fangled darth vader was just pulling away like a cruise ship pulling out from the dock.

According to specs, top speed of my ride is 112. I was somewhat shy of that number with not much left in the tank and starting to feel a little light and floaty. She probably would have made it, but we both decided that fun time was over and didn't have to prove anything.

We came back home, washed up, took a nap and dreamed of our next adventure. Zzzzzz.....

Howie, you should be our cheerleader.
Now everybody will be back out on the roads, searching for that Infinity.
And all the cops on LI will be out looking for you!

Tires are another Zeason older and they have a speed rating limit to begin with, so you're probably blessed for keeping under the two-ton mark anyway .

Two schools of thought; he would be the one the cops chase.
You would be the one they catch.
When being chased by a bear, you don't have to outrun the bear. You only have to outrun your buddy.
