And again…

I think the fuel shut off in the 77 was actually an orientation thing. If the car was upside down, the fuel was shut off. Porsche’s burn down a lot more often I think. Particularly carburetor models. personally, I don’t think the 280Z system is that vulnerable to fire as in a perfect world, which you should maintain, it’s a closed system with no fuel exposure. You’re more likely to have an electrical fire.

Not Z related, but this guy got me started loving cars… RIP to George Maharis - 94 died today.

Duff, im confused. Aren’t you using DBW?

Still no problems.

Nice Corvette, but check out the background…

It should be about 10psi per 1000rpm. So idle might look very low. The needle should move with revs but more of a rise and hold. If it is doing this, quit looking at the gauge. It sounds like you don’t have a problem.

Happy life? Bring the wife!

No, I made the same observation. My experience as a track rat earlier in my life was that you were unlikely to see newish cars in the infield. So, I gave the best-guess that the is @ 5 years after most of those cars were manufactured. Only newish car I ever took to the track was a 4WD Tacoma.

This looks like it might have been taken in the 1980’s at Road Atlanta? 9 o’clock, yellow Z. Nicely presented…

Not a race car and not a vintage race car but I watched this car come together and it is great. Hats off to Sung Kang… FuguZ
