DRIVE'EM!!!
Just got home last night, first time the Z has been back in the garage since the last week in March. In that time, it went from Wichita, KS to Salt Lake City(it got snowed on a couple times...didn't melt). Did a weekend trip from SLC to Sacramento and on to the Bay area for a cruise up the coast with the fine folks from NorCal Vettes. Back to SLC. Finished my project in SLC and drove it down to Las Vegas where it sat in my buddies garage for a week while I flew home for some R&R. Picked it up in Las Vegas and drove it down to LA. I've had it in LA since the first week of May using it as a daily driver back and forth from the hotel in Yorba Linda to our plant in Riverside. Attended Cars & Coffee in Irvine one Saturday morning and then entered it in a car show at J&M Speed Center, in Riverside, a week later. Finished up my project last Friday and headed for home Saturday morning. Went Yorba Linda to Albuquerque on Saturday across I-40 in that wonderful wind. Spent about 15 miles following a Lexus at speeds of 95-115mph. Overnighted in Albq. Sunday headed out for the Albq to Wichita leg. Pulled into the driveway around 9:30 last night. All said, I've put nearly 12,000 miles on it since I bought it at Thanksgiving, and I did 1560 miles this weekend coming home. Yesterday I saw 104-106 degree temps in the Texas panhandle, running 80+mph with the A/C on. I must say I will drive this beast anywhere, she has performed like a dream and I love every minute behind the wheel.
DRIVE'EM...it's what they're made for!
