Re: Socal Nov. 3 Mini Z Race
How the day went
All I can say is thanks guys! I had a really great time. Hope all of you enjoyed this Zunday as much I did.
Thanks Lara for driving down here. It is a true pleasure meeting you. It's always good to make friends out of this hobby. It would have been funner if my two other buddies were able to make it. I'll make sure to bring at least one of them, next time we set up another Zunday. The track was AWESOME!!!!!!
DOHC, Mr.E, and Nikko (hope I'm spelling it right), Much props guys. You guys are way cool. I look forward to our next Zunday meet again.
Dohc,
thank you for purchasing one of my motors. I just want you to know that I back my creations 1000%. I'm just an email away if I may be of any help.
I guess this goes to Doch, Mr.E, Kai, Nikko, and some of my other friends. Since you guys are nearby, let me know if you guys want to meet up and have a few hours of Z'ing. That was sweeeeet! The track won't be as cool as Breeze's, but we'll make the best of it.
Till the next episode.

Hey Thanks too NML for having us down in your area! We had the greatest time Z'ing around Breeze's track! I also wanna give props to breeze for bringing everything and the servo gears
It was also cool kickin' it with you Dohc!
All I can say is very IMPRESSIVE!!! Your motors were really amazing and I'm still in awe! You should definitely be called "The Motor King". You really made us a believer!!
What I can say to the forum readers as we had the special opportunity of witnessing some live, on the spot motor making. NML's motors are truly handcrafted engineered beasts that blew away the motors that we have like SO1, etc. His motors are really worth it and you guys will not find any other handcrafted motors like what his motors can really offer!!
It was really fun Z'ing around with you guys and hopefully we'll do it again sometime!

Thanks very much for the compliment, Mr. E. Compliments from a mini Z expert like you is very much appreciated and is highly valued.
Below are what made my Zunday very enjoyable:
First having the opportunity to meet cool and upbeat people.
Second the track layout: I can’t get over it. It was too fun.
Third: The track condition. I love the drifting effect, especially after the long straight away.
Fourth: The weather. It was nice. Not too cold, not too hot.
Fifth: Showing off the ABC DTM Monster. Hehe
Sixth: Finally got to enjoy my own motor on a track, instead of testing and testing and testing.
Seventh: Having the opportunity to have mini Z experts to test drive my car.

I'm the one with a cap and jeans on the second pic and Breeze is the one next to me. I was driving NML's Z on that pic and I'm still amazed with his car (30 ft in less than 1 sec on the straightaway!!!) On the third pic is Nico beside Breeze.
More pics to come, hehehehe!!

MORE PICS TO COME!
MysterE and Nico took some also. The ones I posted are from the video, so they are a little blurry. If anyone knows where I can DL some free video capture software it would be appreciated. Then I will be able to upload some vids.
Thanx

manchowder*,
with all the b.s. aside, you really did miss out. The track was awesome. Well, if you're still interested (strictly mini Z business) me, mr. E, Breeze, dohc, nicco, cleaner Z, akura2, and some other people will get together again. You are more than welcome to join.
Guys,
what do you think? Should we have a Drag Racing Session next time?
Oh, I finally reached my 700th post. I guess I won't be posting anymore. jk.
