Posted September 18, 200618 yr comment_182918 Talk about bruised and battered!!! Had the Z out for a great 500 mile pre-Fall run this weekend and came back with a few crimps. Nothing major like a crash, but enough to make me smile as I effect the repairs. The laundry list:1. new shifter pin bushings2. temp sending unit blanks out. (thought I had discovered the secret to getting her to run cooler)3. Threw off my wheel wieghts. Must have happened when I took that 500 series BMW to 120+mph.4. Took some serious road spray to my newly restored grills.The good news... Had a blast whoopin the Beemer (no tickets) and with the new exhaust, it was a fumes-free trip.Luvin the end of the year runs.....Cat:beard: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/21619-rough-but-excellent-weekend-for-the-z/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
September 19, 200618 yr comment_182946 Sweet!My fav is the kids in the riced Hondas. They are too young to know what a Z can do. Kind of reminds me of my first race/humbling.(Car prior to Z) I had a four banger and the old geiser next to me incited the whole thing after seeing my erratic driving. He was driving a giant Cadillac which I thought would be an easy mark. Instead he was laughing really loud as he manually shifted his automatic through the gears and blew my doors off.Nothing like driving the Z on a long trip though.
