Had the Z out on Talladega Super Speedway yesterday!
Man what a blast. 
There was a pace car in front of us, but I still managed 110 or so through the turns and up to 143 one time on the back straight before getting close to the car in front of me (no passing allowed) and getting on the brakes.
A few pics...
My Dad's '08 Z...I drove it later and got up to 154.
Sex on wheels...and the guy drove it like it was meant to be driven:

Great pictures! All I saw was the garage area and paddock area most of the day. I finally shut down registration and unloaded my 72 about 3:00 I took some of the volunteers for rides and had a little fun in the last 2 sessions for the day.
Next year should be much better.
