Prescott Cars and Coffee and Coffee on 11/21. Serious Shoutout to Arizona Tuners for some absolutely epic shots of the cruise up there! This girl Kylee Bailey is freakin nuts hanging out the car window going 80mph on the freeway shooting some amazing shots. Love it and was just another blast in the Z!

Beautiful Pics....I especially like the pics with your Nismo lined up next to the old Nismo......Looks like it turned out to be a good cruise and meet....

Hell ya it was man! My first one and now I'm addicted! However, seeing the side by side, I do like the '15 nismo, but I like the rear of the older better! Think it's bc of the wing.

Thanks for sharing :tup:

What kind of response did you get with your Dyno numbers on display next to the engine?

Lots of wide eyes and "holy sh1ts!" LOL One of the guys that was running the event was asking me questions prior to looking at the dyno and asked what kind of power it was getting. As soon as I said he it said "holy crap, I'll be right back" brought over the rest of his crew w/ a big freakin camera asking to interview me. LOL Very intimidating. HA! I loved it though!

Omega Motorsports NoFlyZoneAZ Track day was a blast!! Boost Turned all the way up and fastest I've ever been in her! Beat out a 570Hp C8 Stingray, a 700 HP Audi, a 350Z, BMW M3, and the one I'm most proud of...Corvette Zr1 by 3 mph. Here are a few runs of the 1/2 mile races:

Way to uphold the family reputation my brother...off to the shop this morning for my last real mods to help get more power to the ground. Nothing like running with the big dogs, oh wait...I mean out running them lol!

TerribleONE 12-14-2015 09:15 AM

Way to represent!

BOLIO 671 12-14-2015 09:25 AM

I always look forward to ur vids and once again thanks for delivering. ...:tup:

What type of racing event is this as I noticed u don't really get on it out of the box until u hit 3rd gear......is this a full mile drag race with same objective of reaching the finish line first with the fastest time or is top speed the overall goal? Curious as I have seen other racing events like this but it's nothing that we do or have practiced out here where I'm from. ...we just do the traditional 1/4 mile....

Its a half mile roll racing event. I believe they want to keep tire spin to a minimum since its on a airstrip.

325/20/19 RE11's on the rear and a proper LSD dif? The stock VLSD is not that great. Figured that out today with cold wet roads. It sucks.

Hell yes baby!! I can't wait for your input on these bad boys. Hojin says it's his favorite upgrade to date. I have a feeling he meant aside from the turbos ;) LOL

Great runs... You can always aim your camera on the opponent to see how you pull on them! Thanks for sharing.

Exactly. It's a half mile race where you get up to 40 by the second pair of cones and take off. Problem towards the end so many people would take off in the very beginning rather waiting till the cones to improve their mph. :/ That's what the Zr1 did. It freaking took off and looked like it beat me but when we got to the printout, he had 159mph and I had 161 on that particular run. Dude started early and still couldn't beat me. LOL That makes meh me feel good.

TerribleONE 12-14-2015 08:35 PM

Was the ZR1 stock?

I'm not sure :/ He was quick and all I know is he looked a bit upset that i was faster. HEHE He asked the ticket guy specifically when we were picking up our tickets and I saw his face when he said I was faster. LOL!

We she is getting a new Wavetrac differential installed...well I haven't made a decision on tires but I got get some front tires soon as they are almost to the cords now. My rears have a lot of tread 305's so I'm think 285's but don't know if I want to mix and match with R71r's on the front or just stay with the Re-11s.

That's cool....I've seen these types of races before online but never knew how it worked or what the overall objective was.....I guess similar to the street races on a roll....

So question is does it come down to who crosses the line first or the trap speed.....For instance in your case with the ZR1 he started off early before the second cone....so I am assuming that he made it to the finish line first...but you had a higher speed...so in a situation like that who wins? Also is there a disqualification for those that jump or false start before the 2nd cone?

There are rolling half mile events that have rules like you are talking about but this was a fun event so the rules are meant to keep everyone safe and to be able to compare times. All things considered, Ryan was faster anyway you look at it because he had the higher top speed in a shorter distance. :driving:

Exactly what Bob said. The Zr1 took off down the track before your start point. So by the time I started at 40 mph, he was already screaming down the track. So he started sooner, meaning he had longer to go to gain his speed than I did, but did pass the finish line first. However, back at the crowed is where the mph displays and everyone got to see who the true winner was ;) It was completely mph focused. :tup:

Lots of people towards the end started way early to get better times. Unfortunately for me a damn gopro fell off someones car that I hit going 100 mph that damaged my under cover tray, so time to contact Z1 :/

Wow....good thing u didn't damage anything else GeauxTigers. ....hitting an object no matter the size at that speed ain't no joke and can cause some serious damage.

LOL, the only place you can do a 1/2 mile run in Guam would be at the airport and that would put you half across the island :bowrofl: JK!

Ha! A road kill POV. It would be awesome, but it would be even better not hitting the damn thing. :( New under cover tray from Zspeed is 4-6 weeks out. Sadness. I guess I could drive w/o one for a bit and just be careful what I drive over.
