Thanks for looking

 

And here is a picture of my car when it arrived at Switzer a few days ago. I copy and pasted this pic from Neil on another forum he posted on.

 

wow..... great looking car, well done

 

Jason -

Glad to see you on here. Your car is awesome. See you at MSR (TX2k12) in March. Hopefully I can stay close in the Z.

Eric

 

Thanks

 

Hi Eric,
Thanks for the compliment. What cars are you bringing down to Texas? I assume your Z and your GTT? Looking forward to seeing you in Texas

-Jason

 

Exactly. Left the Z home last year and rented a Miata for GrandSport. Really missed tracking the Z so it will be making a return trip.

 

thought it was a widebody GTR for a sec...those concave wheels are nice additions. sick build.

 

Sounds good. Looking forward to seeing you. Any plans to run the GTT or the Z in the 1/4 mile?

 

Thanks

 

Amazing build. Looking forward to see this car here in Houston.

 

I'll run Z in 1/4 for sure. May run the TTG down a couple times for fun

 

Thanks.

 

Sounds good. See you in Houston.

 

Jason...I've always admired your posts about your GTR over on NAGROC...beautiful piece of machinery you have and great combination of changes on the ride. Looks like our GTR's will be shop buddies...my ride will start it's journey to Ohio 2/1/12 for a couple months of work.

Plan to take a trip up their with my local wrench in March or April to see the shop and meet the guys who are up to their armpits in the innards of my ride...hopefully I get to see your ride in person.
