Went to the drag strip at Milan for the whole day. I ran my best of 13.3 and worst of 14.4 after heatsoak and missing third gear.

Couple of weird things, my car sometimes feels like the clutch slips if i shift on redline, but that only happened after a couple runs.

Also, I have only Stillen Gen3's on my car, and i beat my friends Nismo with full bolt ons (I launched better thought) but our mph were exactly identical.

Not sure if that means our hp numbers are similar, since he has a full exhaust and ART pipes and an aftermarket intake manifold also, and i only have the CAI.

Goodam everyone!

Wow already a Monday?

Husam - nismo's are heavier so base with sports package has always turned better numbers in acceleration and braking from the get go. One reason why I never considered the Nismo.

Our csc don't like redline shifts. My car feels like the clutch doesn't want to return to zero while redline shifting. This has been the way since day one .. After break in dat is.

Since the Z is clean, I will only drive it Monday and Tuesday this week... Unless they change the forecast, which is likely, and besides they are usually wrong anyway.

On the day (Thursday?) that it rained last week when it was not supposed to rain, the day before it was supposed to rain when it didn't, apparently it rained so hard for a short time that we had a bit of a flash flood on our street again as I can see a lot of dead grass and such in a "line" in my yard indicating a "high water mark."
