Just Saying
In South Dakota there are also two issues.......Not Many ZR1s in South Dakota and the Winters Prohibit ZR1 Driving......And if you do not have a Heated Shed almost impossible to Modify a ZR1 during the Winter Months.
Just Saying
Keep us posted Craig on the CA Emissions Situation

Totally understood and why I said NORCAL (Northern California) or Bay Area if I wanted better chances. As much as I would like to meet up with the guys in Southern California (like good ol Ted Feder, etc.), the drive would kill me these days unless I were leisurely touring on vacation. When I was younger....I could do it. Like when I moved to Connecticut from Hawaii and shipped my car to LA, drove to Florida (West Palm Beach) to visit a friend and then up to Connecticut to report in for duty a little over week later.
Yes, I am ready to give up and get a stock Z to live in CA so I can drive. I could not in another SMOG ruled country like Japan for 3 years with a big paperweight in the garage. Well, you already know the saga. Thanks for your wishes and thoughts.
