In fact, we could do it right there at the track. I can come down with you one of these days, and we'll remove the passenger seat and the stuff from the trunk, and I'll watch it for you.

Although would lightening the rear of the vehicle decrease traction?

I don't think it would make a difference at all with traction.

Indeed.

100 lbs off the Z would be huge. Shahid has the best of all possible conditions considering he's only like 140 lbs soaking wet, and we have tracks here with very, very low DAs.

If only he could drive MT well I'd let him jockey the 5.0.

I've got it. We drastically weight reduce shahid's car and he drives it. we put all that in your car and I drive it. You take a video.

The Z fanboys would worship that video until the end of time.

I am definitely going back to the track next spring, or maybe even later this fall (probably not), when I have my PSSs on. I'm interested to see how it goes with the tune. Stock I was bouncing off the rev limiter in 4th gear about 150ft before the finish line. That shouldn't be a problem now. 114+ traps here I come!

We ought to do it up big once and have a MAZOC track day or even do a MAZOC dyno day.

For the MAZOC track day we should piggyback with the GTR/Mercedes crew that rents out MIR. I've talked about it before but haven't tried to organize anything yet. $100 per car and you get unlimited passes from 9-5. Usually only 40 cars show up so you get a ton of uninterrupted track time. Shooting for February or March of next year.
