Re: 91 ZR-1 #400 ready for the roadtrip
At the Hilton Superior Extra Grand hotel for a week of soccer tournament, the Dana Cup, with our youngest boy aged 15 and his team. No, he is not travelling with us in the Z [emoji16]20180723_161305.jpg20180723_121446.jpg

Re: 91 ZR-1 #400 ready for the roadtrip
The Z must be turning a lot of heads in that part of the world... What has the reaction been like?

Re: 91 ZR-1 #400 ready for the roadtrip
Had a couple of guys from the Faroe Islands, who lives in the cottage next to us, come over last night asking if I could show them the car. Of course I did, and they took pics and sat in the car, asked about all and everything, and I told them all I know about it's history and legacy.
One said he'd seen an Audi R8 on the parking lot, and some Ferrari on the street, but none of those gave him the vibes like our Z did. Needless to say, the powdercoated LT5 was the jewel in the crown for them too. A very nice car chat between enthusiasts is something to appreciate. I also told them I feel "obliged" to gear down and stamp on it whenever I pass kids on the sidewalk who points and gives us thumbs-up...and they loved my attitude...lol [emoji16] Important to recruit new fans you know [emoji631][emoji593] Sent from my SM-G955F using ZR-1 Net Registry mobile app

Great story, Roy. And, yes, it's very important to always connect with the younger kids! I have found in the US that it's now more the exception that the younger generation has interest in mechanical things. They are incredibly good with computers, iPhones/iPads, etc., and might play sports, but fewer have interest in working on things. On the other hand, cars are a fantastic way of crossing the "generational boundary" (as are sports, I've found.) Lots of fun when you can chat with a lad about these kinds of things. Great your son's team is doing well. Looks like nice weather. All the best in your travels. May you and your lady have delightful burnouts and minimal traffic tickets. "G"

Re: 91 ZR-1 #400 ready for the roadtrip
Arrived in Sweden last night. Today we are at the beach again, this time outside Halmstad on the west coast. Staying with our relatives and having a good time. The Z got a 7 hour stretch on the freeway yesterday and consumed a tank in the process. It's just an amazing car to travel in [emoji16]20180728_113601.jpg20180728_113623.jpg20180728_122411.jpg
