Mark,

I was there in my copper 78 too, I did not know you were there. It was my first track event and I learned a ton. My instructor was Tom Barnett in the maroon 280Z. He took me for a ride, very fast. Says he runs at 2 boost settings 350hp or 450hp. He ran this weekend with a tranny that had no 5th, he still rocked. I never realized how different it was between track and autocross driving.

BTW the white Z was a very fast V-8 car.

And the blue 280Z with ACCENTZ tags is a prior Gold Medallion winner.

Fred, I came by a couple of times but never saw you. I do have some decent photos of your 280Z as well. I'll add them tomorrow.
