Any trouble relative to what? You should run a 370 from a 100-roll. :bowrofl:

Though if you hold 100 for a few miles and then honk, the Z will probably have already started to overheat. Win for the Maxima. :icon17:

On mine, it would accelerate pretty quickly up till 100. As soon as it went past 100, it seemed to really slow down in terms of acceleration. I wasn't sure if It just came with the territory of going 100+ (the fastest I went up to was 115) or the car was just like that. It felt as if maybe something was holding it back.

I got mine up to a 125 pretty damn quick on the last cruise...err...scratch that... it was 45 the whole way.

I was actually talking about the 2010 maxima I used to have :)

The Z was good past 100 at the track, but I wasn't really paying attention to the speedo. I probably hit like 115ish before I started braking.

I didst look at the speedometer at all while on the cruise, so I assume I was at or below the speed limit the entire time :rolleyes:

Yes insurance requires a helmet but no one really enforces it. This event has always been open to any Z/G/GTR that was willing to chip in their piece to cover the rental and insurance cost. There is no money being made on this event. It's just good fun, running down the strip ALL DAY LONG. :)

I've helped organize this event the last 3 years. We were going to let it go this year to try out the road course event and support ZdayZ sponsors, but since that is not happening, we're ramping back up.

If you want to participate all you have to do is say that you are interested and then be ready with your deposit ($125 to $225 or thereabouts depending on number who enroll and sponsors). The main thread is over at m y 3 5 0 z in the FI forum. Hope to see some of you guys there. Last year there was a NA trophy and a FI trophy. :)

I must have done ~20 runs last year. you just ask someone to pair up and settle on a rolling speed. Some guys even did a few runs from a dead stop. Did I mention that the police showed up to spectate last year? They even busted out the radar on us for a few runs.

We all were told to bring helmets last year ans then never used them. The guy that runs/owns the airport was super chill and even let me buy a clamp after I blew off a coupler during a run.

Of course the 5.0 is banned because it's top speed is 5.0 to the 5.0th power. :yum:

There are two classes. We even had "friends" in non-Z/non-G cars come out. A viper, a 500+ rwp C5, a V8 GTO, and a V10 M6. If you are a prior Z/G owner and/or are signing up with a Z/G buddy, then I think that's fair game also. The objective is to get a bunch of cool car enthusiasts together and have some fun. Just post up in the main thread and I'm sure you'll get some love. :)
