We've done 1:40 flat in a race prepped NA 350Z making just 240whp, so I think a 1:36 is a good stretch target for the 370Z. Didn't say it would be easy though.

well hell Reece Cox from MTI in Atlanta ran a 1:28 two weekends ago at the NASA finals with his naturally aspirated corvette so it is no doubt possible.

and Sharif (in his GTR) was within .1 seconds of Reese at Little Talladega a couple months ago.

Sounds about right AWD plays a huge factor. This is about drivetrain and aspiration. What i'm trying to say is that it takes an enormous effort to get the same response out of an N/A motor that you would in a twin turbo motor. For Reese to run that fast in a naturally aspirated V8 rear wheel drive is crazy and unofficial times of 1:26 were clocked on that sunday so i believe with a good driver that has balls the size of coconuts and a well built 370z, 1:35 is most definitely possible.
