Anytime.

 

I agree badg35's car looked fantastic. Nice job Chris .
The X looked and sounded pretty good also, but I really didn't care for the wheels on the X.
I agree with Deane, it's too bad they didn't explain the upgrades like what they used and such.
I'm glad I taped it, that segment of the G cars was so short, but I have replayed it a few times since .

 

I've got it saved on my DVR too. I really wish there was a bit more detail on the mods and the real benefits.

Yes the X looked great too other than the wheels. I can't believe they picked those out. Icould do with blingy but they were really b**t ugly. That sure was a big drop on that car.

 

Wayne, The segment(s) on the G cars -- is it near the beginning or the end?

Colin, it starts at 12 minutes in and ends at 16, In the last shot of Chris's car it looks like the passenger door is not shut tight out on the track.

 

Colin it is about 10 to 15 minutes into the show and it is only on for about 3 minutes.

You beat me Deane, and ya I noticed his door ajar also while he was on the track.

 

We were typing at the same time I guess.

 

Thanks guys.....that's a big help.

Hard to believe they would drive it that way.

 

pretty sweet G....

 

Wow... Where do I start...

Amount of Airtime:
For the record, Infiniti is not a sponsor like the other$ on $CR. They did however, supply "some" of the parts for the build. This is why it's only like 1-3 mins episode, I was hoping it would have been longer, but I'm not complaining. They shot footage of Tom doing a dog leg and me doing a power slide. I was also filmed talking about the G35 and the work they did... But time was not on the G's side this season, so on the cutting floor it be!

Parts:
In each episode they mentioned the part they were putting in and "some" of the benefits there of. In my opinion the Borla Exhaust didn't get enough coverage because aside from the wheels and lowering it's the sweetest piece...

Open Door:
The door was shut however due to the fact they had a pencil camera stuck to the quarter they had to leave it open a crack. Initially they were going to leave the windows down but the audio was crap.

Funny story, Tom (The Big) guys was ripping my car around the track and actually nailed a pylon which in turn ripped the camera off it's mount... He didn't know and began to race away dragging the pencil cam with him for about 400 ft... Finally as the cord rapped it's self off my quarter panel he stopped... No damage to my car, but the camera was toast.

Compliments:
Just want to thank you all for the kind words... The car is my baby and although I would love to go crazy, I was just looking to do something that would make it stand out a little more than the others. Lower, Tints, Wheels, Brakes, Exhaust, Intake is probably all that I will do to her... After this, it's figuring out a Nav system and keeping her clean...

Once again, thanks for the compliments it's always great to hear!!!

Hey Chris,

Just getting your car upgraded is awesome. Some TV footage was a bonus. Have worked in media most of my life I understand about how time and space mean when it comes to editing.

Pretty funny about the camera. Good thing there was no damage.

Good luck taking care of your baby. You won't want to let go of her now.

 

Loved the footage, Chris, it was real special knowing it was one of 'ours'. and kudos for a great ride.

Hope you can take the time to pass out autographs at the next meet.

I'll get you to sign my M's dash (well maybe inside the glove box) .

Colin
