Spotted a Burgandy Lotus Elise Roadster and what appeared to be a yellow Ultima GTR heading west bound on Glendale.

Appearantly, there is a Yellow Panoz Esperante running around town. I'd like to see that.

Dude, we saw one at Seca a while back... it looked like a front engined Porsche w/ a shitty bumper kit on it, remember?

I think Matt was referring to this ugly bastard. However, what I saw was smaller than the Esperante.

It seems the town is now overflowing with NSXi, Skylines(4 that I have seen), a handful of elises, and to my suprise a ton of GTIs.

The shinning star that I saw today while out and about paying 3.35 a gallon was a vector v12...probably the same one I saw in a longs parking lot last year...but this time it was white instead of redish. But, same utah plates+different color=96.3% chance of it being the same car.

Welcome Lurker, I'm a noob to Reno too. I had to give up on the wave too. I have a low tolerance for rejection.

in hill country I have noticed that the wave can only be expected from people that have stickers on thier cars or some sort of visable mods done.

otherwise everyone in Reno owns a Subaru

This is true, I hardly get waves unless it's someone on the board I already know.

Bruspeed, I passed by you on your way south out of Carson at about 3:45 this afternoon

I didn't see you in time to wave, though

Default Sighting "ITSASTI"

I Saw "ITSASTI" , Im sorry, I don't know any of you guys.
That got to be the worst looking piece of straight pipe exhaust I have ever seen... LOL, But that car is fuc_in LOUD!!. Thats actually twice that ive seen him this week. I waved and got the wave in return (Like 2 days ago on McCarran). Tonight I saw him on McCarran and then followed him down 7th st and watched him cut offf 1 person and pass another using the turn lane, Good shit... (by the way I drive the 05 red wagon).

Where's the line start!


of course I should clarify that with a quote from Matt when I took him for a ride in my car:

"dude, that was the closest to a complete disaster in a car I've ever experienced, but I'm cool with it"
