I might take you up on that, but I'm gonna give Capitol one more shot. It's only $20 and 15 mins away vs $100 and 1 hr away for MIR.

You're saving pennies and wasting dollars here. Just give up on Capitol and come with me to MIR in the spring -- it's worth it.

Fast track + the ability to put in as many passes as you want = well worth $100. I'll buy you lunch.

All the modding has put a hurting on my savings, I'm still in recovery mode. The only other thing is that my cousins are willing to go with me to Capitol, but not as far as MIR. I will try to come out if I can though

careful Blades, he might expect something "in return", as they say, there's no such thing as a free lunch...

I might have HFCs on my car as well by the time the MIR rental comes around

Nice.

I am going to try to have a set of DRs when we go (I'll also have the Konis on by then.) The Mustang and 370 share the same bolt pattern and they'd fit over your rear brakes no problem. So if I have them then I'll bring all of the tools we need to put them on your car for a few runs.

I want an 11 second time slip and based on what some friends have been running lately I am pretty sure I can end up somewhere in the 11.7-11.9 range on the DRs.

In that case, I will definitely be there

Damn, I will have to buy some DRs to try and keep up.

Just skip and go straight for ET Streets. I have a friend with a set I might be able to borrow for a small "wear fee." We'll see.

What's the difference between drag radials and ET Streets?

kosstick · 12-07-2011, 08:36 PM

A bit off topic, I have a 7AT gtm stage 2 g37, I have a 19" advans which is a 10.0 wheel. Will they be able to support the mickey thompson 305/35/19? street radial?

They will fit just fine. MT specifies a rim width of 10-12 inches for that size tire.

chuckd05 has a bmw 135i with full bolt ons with maybe 400whp... i'm not even sure if it has that much. He runs low to mid 11's. Next thing you are going to say is that BMW's are made for the drag strip because it can run a better time than a 370z? :rollseyes:

Hey coop, i checked out those runs on youtube and the ones with your STI those were sweet. that was some good driving in the subaru, too by you and your tuner. I'd love to check out your TTg37 at a northeast meet hopefully in the spring, looks fun

SharpByCoop · 12-08-2011, 11:06 AM

Hey Jeff,

Thanks. The opening run on my Subaru vid, had me whacking away at my shifter. Violent! My best was an 11.16"....
You can see how subtle, yet effective, Junior's shifting and launch were. He went three tenths quicker. I'm still not talking to him.

And that's how Flippin' HARD it is to go fast at the drags.

That's still a good time and was some good driving. supposedly launching those AWD Cars is very hard. i watched the videos, i love how stock the G sounds even with all the HP. i'm guessing you sold the subaru for the G? why didn't you go for the G37Sx? you seem to like AWD if you had the subaru..

yes your tuner's driving was very good. that was brave of you to let him launch the car that hard hahaah.
