Yes, erm, no lol. I just drive to drive some times. Lately I have been riding my motorcycle all over the place as a commuter. In fact, the G got driven once in the week. Friday I took it out and I was just like "After not driving this thing for a few days, I really appreciate it at a whole different level." I just love my effing car way to much. It is almost strange how much I love my G35s. (thats plural btw, because I almost shed I tear when I sold off my 05)

I can't wait to get my car on a course next summer. Just a few more things and it's ready to go! I've never done any auto-x or tracking so I'm excited to see how well I can handle it.

I also can't wait to meet all the cool people here next month. Nice to finally put a face to the name of some of you guys =)

Oh yea, it was just the car at elevation. I don't think it had enough time for the computer to readjust or anything because I kinda just went up and down the mountains in the span of like, a day. I literally went from like, 500feet of vertical to 14k passes in just a couple hours haha. The car was probably like, wtf.

Transmission just had like a lag under full throttle. Idk.

Some of the Sedan guys asked me that question too, here is what I posted in my progression thread:
