Message i drove up to austin on friday for the statewide show on saturday at Rudy's BBQ (which is some good BBQ)...this was the first time i got to take the TT on a roadtrip. lets get straight to the pics (sorry if they are a tad too big)


me and Luis (300twinz)

mike cleaning up his widebody

Mike W.'s TD05 Monster, which is for sale

RB26 widebody 240Z...this thing was sweet...took best in show


bobby's engine bay

luis' engine bay

look at these poorly parked 350s

and now look at these poorly aligned 240s/260s

but us brilliant 300 owners know how to park in a straight line! just marvelous!



i have been having injector # 1 go on/off...so after the show, we decided to go to Mike W's house nearby to switch it out with another injector...we took care of that and then myself, luis, ali, milo, mike (collegeboy), and his friend-i'm sorry i forgot your name went to bone daddy's to grab a bite

here are 2 short vids i took...not bad considering i was holding my camera out the window and not looking at what i was recording...but the 2nd one is sideways =)

milo handling his business outside the restaurant

luis, mike, me...i really need to get some texas plates-but i prob need to register the car for that to happen...its a LONG story which i wont even get into, hopefully get it done this week

mike's sweet widebody

then we went to a small meet of mostly muscle cars...turbo lawnmower anybody?

i decided to stay till sunday for the cruise (which got cancelled anyways) and sean was kind enough to let his chill at his house...he has a badass place...

i had originally asked sean for an injector a few days ago and i laughed when i saw this on his fridge

and the coolest thing in sean's house


i didnt place in daily driver, but i still had a blast this weekend in austin. it was good to see familiar faces and meet some new people. i gotta thank:

1) Luis for bringing me injectors
2) Mike W. for letting me use his awesome garage and tools to switch the injector out. i got home okay with it, but even this one is flickering on/off-gotta be an electrical issue which i need to find. Also wanna thank Mike W. for taking me for a ride in his Beast of a Z and showing me what 25 lbs of boost and race fuel feels like. his car is stupid fast and the quickest car i have ever rode in-scared the hell out of me (even with a tiny boost leak)
3) Milo for helping me with that injector and making me a rubber insulator for the injector cap (i thought it would be fun to lose the one i already had)
4) Sean for letting us hang out at his place
5) Ali for letting me crash at his hotel


we need more Z gathering like this one. cant wait till next time.
