Message	"Gas, tires and brakes are WASTED while driving normally on the street" I don't think they're wasted AS LONG AS the owner of the car enjoys what he's doing. If you enjoy just cruising the streets or driving to work in your car, then it's not a waste IMO. Of course, if you hate daily driving your Z, then yeah, it's a waste. I, for example, haven't raced my 300ZX in any fashion since I wrecked my last 300ZX (I'm going to dump a lot more money into brakes and suspension with this Z just to make sure I don't wreck this one like I did the last one). However, I enjoy every second I'm driving the car, and have never felt that I was wasting gas by not taking advantage of its capabilities.
