Gave it a bath and drove it all of 2.5 miles yesterday! Feels like a Chevette next to Pete's LT5 in the Turq car. I sure do miss that Turq Monster!

Yes, Happy Father's Day to everyone, enjoy the day....
We are going to our daughter's and son-in-law's (my second son, great guy) and of course our two grandsons will want a ride in the Z, their smiles are priceless, especially the 6 year old, who like to turn on every switch he can get his hands on, to see how it works.....:-D

The Turq Monster is in a good home tho. Ami took here out yesterday (finally got the insurance straightened out) and rowed through the gears a bit, smoking a few unsuspecting victims on the highway! :dancing

Are you coming up to the 1/2 mile shootout next Sunday 6/22?

I won't be able to get up there, Paul. You saw my workload. :(

Paul, have you driven it hard yet?

Happy Father's Day to all you Mother's. Off to Margaritaville today :icon_boun

No ZR1 to take a ride in. I use to have a ZR1. There was a white ZR1 , wind and a lot of water.......then it turned blue. ...........I lost it some place and can't seem to find it.

Good to be bizzy, I recon!

Yes, the morning we got the insurance card, I got a chance to turn the Turq Monster LOOSE! :dancing It makes mine feel like an LT1 car...almost.:o (Mine is still good enough to sack a turbo Porsche on the way to an impromptu pizza meeting last night. It has longer legs, if not as vicious a bite!)

I bought some standard 94 seats from Kenny Windische - same color - and installed them. (Wimmin need more hip room, doanchaknow.) Then Ami and I went for a ride to see how they fit her. Much better, actually!

And, while out for a short sprint, she really turned it loose a couple times - surprised me, tho it shouldn't have. (She isn't afraid to put the hammer down! But, one ought not turn the Turq Monster loose until she has more experience with it. Lots of power under that bonnet, and by her own admission she's not comfy with a car when it starts to skid.[-X Hmmmm.... We'll work on that!!)

I REALLY miss that car. It's been one of my favorite cars, if not the most. I bet those GSC's spin like you're on ice when you let it loose. That thing will spin up to 7400 rpm in an instant. Those 345 Toyo's hooked up great and sent you down the road...remember your first ride with me?

Ami's gonna love it when she gets comfortable with the car.
