Re fuel starvation, I ran the car today at Chuckwalla and was able to get down to only several gallons... not the <1 gallon that I was hoping for but still a major improvement... I think Richard of nohotwire would say that there is something out of place but everything seems to be installed correctly. It's a satisfactory solution as far as I'm concerned and will have to do until I switch to a permanent racing fuel cell

I haven't checked the dust boots lately and not sure if we swapped them out when we put the brake cooling in so don't know if it is going to keep them from suffering the heat... I can tell you I'm getting no fade and no ice mode, so happy about that!

Gonna look into doing some trackdays now that its finally getting cold again.

Thanks, yes, it is finally getting dialed in. I seem to still pick up 0.5 second every time I go to the track and it is some combination of continued refinements to both car and driver. I was a half second from winning last time out with NASA in TTA.

Your car is coming along great! I continue to follow... glad your SC setup is working out

If you want a hard core 370z just for the track, check in with Jay!

I drove a ZR1 today at the track. Man! Serious power... still like the Z better though!

Looking good Travis, glad to hear you continue to make such huge gains each time out.

Is Richard ready to sell his fuel tank modifications? Is it possible/safe to ship a fuel tank across the country?

thanks. wish he would come on here and post!

I think it's ready to go but that's going to be his call... he answers his phone... re shipping, yes, but he's creating a kit so you don't have to ship anything!
