A new NSA (New Saddle Announcement)
A new feature brought to you by the Tourmaster

One of our regular Bull Riders, Trent L., has added a new saddle (i.e. car) to his barn. It's a Twilight Blue 2005 Infiniti G35 6MT Sedan, which means it's already got the Sports Suspension Package.

I created this thread so Trent's friends and other Bull Riders could respond to Trent's new purchase. Here are pictures of his new baby:





Within days of taking possession of the car, he added a Z-tube and Hotchkis sway bays to firm up the ride some more for tighter handling.



Trent says that he might do a few more modifications before the next Raging Bull Texas Stampede in January, 2009.

With a new saddle in the family, Trent is now putting his 2006 Nissan 350Z Touring 6MT Roadster up for sale. It is Magnetic Black color with black leather, has less than 37k miles and wider tires (255/40/18 rear, 245/40/18 front). He's asking $24,900. Here are pictures of his 350Z roadster:









If you're interested in Trent's Z, send him a private message.

The Twilight Blue color on the G35 looks amazing. I can't wait to see it in person. Congratulations, Trent, on the new ride. It'll be interesting to get your impressions of its handling at the next Stampede.

 

Thanks so much youngturk. I've been dragging my feet with selling the Z for the past month or so, but it needs to go fairly soon. I wish we could hold on to it, but just can't justify it right now with a baby on the way.

I'm loving the G. it's definitely a little more relaxed and not quite as precise, but it is just as fast and seems to do almost as well in the corners. As you can see, there's amount of rust on the exhaust system. In a weird sort of way, I'm kind of happy about that. Sometime soon I may be "forced" to put the G35 coupe midpipe on it, which should sound great.

I can't wait for the next Stampede or (hopefully) a fall drive. I'm sure I'll miss the convertible a little, but should have no problem keeping up.

 

Congrats on the new ride!
You should join us at Harris Hill Road to test it out: https://g35driver.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3224105
We've extended registration thru this Friday at 5 PM Central.

 

yeah, I saw this on the DFW S2000 board. I've been active in that group for a while now. I'd love to come out, but am trying to get our house ready to sell, so I'm a little scarce on free time. It's a fun track though. I'm hoping to make it out there again in a couple months.

 

You will be fine in your G Sedan. I ran mine several times, and it easily kept up and passed people in any event from the RB, to HHR, MSR, etc. :P
