This past weekend Colin ran his 240Z at the HRG/VSCCA/Empire two day track event at Lime Rock. Started with the Z going to Vinny's last Wednesday for track preparation and nut and bolt safety check. Colin had fitted some new sticky rubber which really helped lap times.The car ran perfectly, four on track sessions on Friday, three on Saturday in extremely hot conditions. Super amount of cars, vintage and current race cars. We camped out in the B Paddock Friday night, the weather and event was terrific. Some photos. (NO! that yellow car is not my Z, it's a vintage GTB Ferrari.)

OK, OK, I'm jealous.

Really really good photographs, too. :thumbs_up: Did he know where you were filming him from, so he could intentionally look fast as he passed you?

Don't tell me he even got to play with a D-Jag?!! :shock:

We had other Datsuns keeping us company at the event, some photos attached.

Excellent. :thumbs_up:

Would have been very cool to see the TR3 parked nearby, too.
