For those of you on Facebook.. Gordon and his 240Z are one of the 3 finalist in Nissan's (along with Motor Trend) Project 370Z Challenge. I don't think he needs the help but feel free to vote for him.

Nice. I tried sharing it directly on the page 5 hours ago but it wouldn't let me so I just posted the link there. I'm glad you did though so its easier for everyone to see because everybody should see it haha. Its so great to see all of that effort he put into the car being recognized.

So much has happened the last few days. A guy from Formula Drift came by tonight and tech inspected the car. All good :dblthumb: Also took her out for a spin. He drove. Lots of fun. Lots of smiles. Oh yea!

Scheduled to pickup the car tomorrow and trailer to track.

I fly to Vegas next Sunday for three fun filled days at the track. I'll take a bunch of pictures and keep everybody up to date as things unfold.

Thanks for your support and I hope to represent the Z as best I can. :biggrin:

OK here's the poop.

Two fun filled days at the track. Two pro drivers will be driving both cars. Track events will be as follows.

1. 0-60-0 MPH
2. Slalom
3. auto cross track.
4. Vegas inside road course.

Talked to the transport company a few hours ago. They are now picking up tomorrow. I'm going to start a new thread and update as things unfold. Not sure if I should post in classic Z general ???? Maybe here in General chat. I could post it behind enemy lines (350/370 discussion) ;)
