It'll also depend on the track. Mine sprays it pretty wide, so I'm unable to line up far enough to totally get both tires onto the non-VHT surface. I was forced to granny it out of the hole using 1/2...

Wow, spare tires on the front. LOL. Btw, what's the speed rating on those?

Karting is soooo much fun. I envy you mainlanders because you have lots of motorsports options for kids. We only have junior dragsters and moto-x. We don't even have SCCA on my island.

I slip the clutch and gently modulate the gas. Slipping the clutch reduces shock to the tires and helps prevent traction loss. Modulating the gas helps prevent excessive wheel spin. Launching on...

The Vbox is a pretty cool tool. I could only get 5.1 0-60 and 13.7@104 in my car. I think I'll stick to racing my V8 Pathfinder. It's slower, but more impressive for a 5000 lb SUV. 5.3 0-60 and...

I totally agree with going with a smaller diameter wheel. I tried test fitting my friend's wheel (17" from G35) on the rear of my car and it just barely hit the caliper. It looks like it would clear...

Traction isn't going to be the same. Drag radials work better on AT equipped cars because they have a more difficult time handling the shock of a MT. It takes a lot of finesse to launch a MT car with...

I had the really tiny one in my SR20DET 240. I didn't really worry about it because I live in Hawaii, so no battery killing cold weather here. I found that I needed to leave it on a battery tender if...

Driver's skill comes into play too. Maybe his father is a terrible driver. He could bog the crap outta the R8 and the 370 will just shoot out from the start.

The power is there. You're just not coming into it yet. I was a little disappointed at first too, but only because I was driving a much quicker 240 and more torquey V8 Pathfinder.

Yeah, it's all about timing. I've never had a smoothness problem engaging the clutch (letting the pedal out). I've only had the clunk when pushing the clutch pedal in. Just play with your timing...

I'm guessing some people's clunks could be due to driving style and timing. The Z is throttle by wire, so there is a lag between pedal action and the throttle plate reacting. If you drive the Z...

After that, you can go in for a full rebuild with different internal components (clutch packs, etc) if you need it to hold more power.
