You can even request to race against a friend. If we get more people in the future this could make things interesting.

Braden and Marco you owe me a rep point, thought I would forget.

Yes, next time more of you guys need to come out, looks easy, but getting the perfect launch is very difficult. I'm sure I can knock more then a .50 second off my time if I can nail it. :-)

My first run ever, launched at 4000rpm (big mistake) roasted the tires through 1st and second gear, felt like my clutch broke, so I drove the rest of the way slowly, didn't even pick up my time slip. LOL

2nd run 13.68 @ 103 2.25 60ft
3rd run timing failed (let me run again) sucks, because this one felt good.
4th run 14.1@102.5 2.39 60ft

It was great fun, learned a lot, can't wait to do it again, and get those 60ft times down :-)

Mark, you do have a rep point coming

Yeah, sorry I missed this, but next time! I had too much to do and then had to get to Streets for a track day on Sunday. I'll post up a video on another thread. You guys will be happy to know that on street tires, with just a Berk CBE and H&R Sport Springs, the car did a 1:29.5 in midday heat and passed about 9 cars in the session, including a couple of Z06 Corvettes. I know, I know, maybe they didn't know the track as well, but that's still pretty decent for a street car. Kudos to the 370!

I watched the video and that was a great session. Your fast lap was only 7 tenths off the motortrend test driver. No wonder you were catching the red Exige and Cayman S. The 370Z beat the Cayman S by a half second a lap in a comparo at Streets.

What oil cooler are you running ? My car is only 3 weeks old and ran good at the dragstrip and next I will probably autox it but after that I will need an oil cooler before I run some track day laps.

We will probably get another group together next time the Street Legals are at Fontana. The only problem is the next one the temps might be to high to get a good E.T.

Thanks man! I have the Stillen 25 Row Race Oil Cooler. If you're getting one, go through Scott Vanderheide at Fontana Nissan (Motorsports Division Manager) and request that Chris Heimburg (Special Technician) install it for you.
