370Z vs GTR at the track this past Friday!
 

Hey all, figured I'd post this for your viewing pleasure. This is a pic of me in my new 370Z racing a white GTR at the track in Fayetteville, NC this past friday night! Yea I know there was no chance of my winning but it was still fun as hell to race one and made for one sexy startign picture!

PS: I took him in the 60 FT time....

It was a great night too, after the race he let me ride in the GTR and man Im in love! My Z is great but Nissan really outdid themselves with the GTR. I would know Im a former R32 GTR owner from my days of being stationed in Japan. (Thanx Army!)

There was like 5,000 people at the track that night and over 400 cars racing! I was pretty surprised the Z was getting almost as much attention as the GTR and even had a fair amount of people tell me they actually thought the Z looks better.

Sorry had to share my story, Im still smiling from the response I got from people over the new 370Z. It was a blast!

I know it's mostly the perspective of the wide angle camera there but that really makes the GT-R look huge!

Yea well the camera isn't that great either, it was taken from my iPhone! But when we had them sitting side by side the GTR has a good bit on the 370Z. With noses even my rear bumper ended at about the end of his rear fender. So it is a bit bigger but not as ginormous as that picture makes it look.

What... no timeslips? What did you run?

^^^^ 2nd

Yeah what did you two run!?

I got the time slips in my car somewhere but I ran a 13.48 and he ran like a 12.7 because he slowed down for me to catch up! ...LOL! I've seen him run an 11.4 before tho!

Damn 11.4?

Not bad let us know what you're 60ft and trap speed were when you get a chance :)

Alrighty, gonna do a couple break downs here of what I'd seen so far. I posted just one of these up in the "Track" section of the forums but since your asking on here and I love talking about it, I'll throw my numbers up here as well!

The 13.48 run against the GTR:
2.1469 - 60 FT
5.7536 - 330 FT
8.7216 - 1/8 ET
82.96 - 1/8 MPH
13.486 - 1/4 ET
103.54 - 1/4 MPH

However this wasn't my fastest run, my best run was a 13.43 here are the times for that:
2.0897 - 60 FT
5.7219 - 330 FT
8.6927 - 1/8 ET
83.18 - 1/8 MPH
13.437 - 1/4 ET
103.85 - 1/4 MPH

As of yesterday I've been running consistantly in the 13.4's with a 13.5 here and there. When I first started breaking her in it was 13.6 and 13.7s most of the time. But I ran 7 runs yesterday with 6 times in the 13.4's and one 13.5 flat!

My fastest overall times for each area are as fallows:
1.9792 - Fastest 60 FT
5.7081 - Fastest 330 FT
8.6817 - Fastest 1/8 ET
13.437 - Fastest /4 ET

Everything is still completely stock, Im running the 7 AT base model package. I love it so far, and have my intakes on the way!

Impressive runs! :tup: Do you have any video? we would love to see a video. I don't think there's any video of 370z at the drag strip.

Any 6MT times out there. I would like to see the comparison.

ME TOO, I bet they might have a faster time or two but they won't run anywhere near as consistant

thats my buddy adams car. he is running a cobb accessport on that GTR

Cool, someone else knows Adam! He was a really cool guy. Where you out at the track that night? If so what were you running?
