Amen, vehicle payments are easily the dumbest type of debt a person can take on. I use my credit just enough to keep it stellar for things like utility accounts, and for when I want to buy a house. I'll never understand financing a vehicle.

 

Oh sweet man, I was always curious about your background just because you know so ridiculous much about this stuff. And so young still man. You should look into building and getting sponsored for like the stock class Baja 500. I'd love to be a part of your team if you do

 

That's a bucket list item I kinda forgot about. Go watch some of the Baja races live while eating fresh fish tacos and chimichangas

 

I wheeled with a KOH and Mint 400 racer in Idaho. He wanted us to come check out his races as pit crew haha. Haven't taken him up on it yet, but maybe one day. The car studies kept me sane through college and continues to be my go to for extra curricular learning. Tying to get more into the fuel injection computer tuning aspect right now but the learning curve is a bit steep, the Z is going to help a lot with this soon.

Racing is on my bucket list. I was going to enter a 200mi off-road endurance race at one point. But the issue is I need a pit crew and second driver and the taco is too built for stock class and would have no chance in modified class haha. Drag racing is my usual go to though.

 

No shiz? You're a tarmac guy first? Guess I just assumed because of the taco, but that explains the Z. Makes me wanna keep my eyes open for one.....but I won't so don't tempt me with links to good Z deals lol

 

Challenge accepted. For something I'm rebuilding the entire drivetrain and suspension on I got really lucky with the Z, no rusted through sections and the interior is complete and clean. It's about three weeks from being a new car. And then another month from having a turbo the size of my head

 

@cruiserguy

This is my buddy's Z. We built a good deal of it together in college for him to drag race. This is the current road tune at 564hp. Also side note where else but WA can you have a Dyno shop overlooking the scenic palouse rolling hills.
