If you're running high 13's without the nitrous... That's about right for a basically stock Z. The short tails aren't going to free up that much power and the K&N intakes are most likely heat soaking.

If you still have your system in the back, too... I'm not sure how much it all weights, but seems like it might be quite a bit. That's creating a lot of extra weight your Z is dragging around.

Well the system is out, so that's not a prob... I feel the power of the car is not getting to the road as much, at least last night... The track was pretty slippery, we had a couple accidents, and a lot of spin outs... I myself was not getting any traction. Maybe another time at the track might get realistic times with the nitrous... Uprev is giving me a sponsorship with a free tune/nitrous tune, and half price on the labor for the dyno, and I am waiting to hear back from Stillen about their sponsorship, hopefully they can throw in G3's headers, HFC's or test pipes.. Etc.... We will see what they say...

Nice!.... Are your trap speeds in the 100-105mph range or higher?

....what is your 60ft? Are you on stock Potenzas? Did you do a small burnout to 'clean' the tires? When are you engaging the nitrous?

if you say there where a lot of spin outs + a few crashes, then there was probably some sort of oil/lubricant on the track itself.

Yea man the last time I was at the track the left lane was pretty slippery... I had to let off the throttle cause the tires were spinning to much and my car was drifting to the side. I didn't run after that. I've been wanting to head back but I wanted to get stickier rubber. Oh and good luck with the sponsorships! Once you get your car tuned it feels like a whole other monster!!!
