Converted to TT3 Time Trial car...

...I'll be driving an SSP Z06 at the events I do attend.

Who's ready for AutoX season??
 

Wheels look great. Those tires on backwards though?

Good eye, I noticed after I got them on that they were wrong. Didn't pay any attention that the tires are directional, unlike the re11's that I used last year. Tires are mounted right, just had the wheels swapped.

Ahh thought it looked funny. Hopefully the weather clears up for next week.

New air filters, my z1 rear 2 piece rotors (finally!!), and ported throttle bodies coming in this week. Then off to RT Tuning for a corner balance, alignment and retune! Coming down to the wire.

Any of you guys ever use Nitto NT01's for autocross? Have a set for this season.

NT01's need some heat...they won't be any better than the newer, soft street tires unless it is quite warm out IMO.

This.
They are great down here in Alabama with 2 drivers but single driver in decent weather I doubt you'd get much heat in them

Thankfully the course we run is usually pretty long (65-90 seconds) and high speed so we tend to build more heat in our tires than the typical shorter/slower autox courses. Definitely gonna try to utilize co-drivers this year though. My R888 seemed to do fairly well so I'm hoping the same for the Nittos!

ALOHA, LOL! We are half way done with our season here in Hawaii.

I finally got a chance to take EVO School I and II. Almost time for a new set of tires at all corners. I also installed the Stillen Sport Pads and while they have a great initial bite they do tend to fade even on our 40-60 second course. (Yes, I bedded them in)

Either way I'm still having fun and kicking ***. Next season I'll probably jump out of Street and into one of the modified classes. I really want more suspension adjustment and I think it's time for some race tires after 5 years in Street or Stock Classes.

Results from our last race on 22 Feb (I'm the only 370Z) Although BJ in the 350Z is effing fast too. :driving:

Nice driving!! You guys using 2014 rules or 2015? 2015 rules the 370Z moved to BS (you would have finished first in BS)

We are 1 season behind in Hawaii. Our season normally runs from August-May since we co-use our lot with the Aloha State Fair.

The 370Z is really dominant in CS I can understand the jump to BS.

Ordered a set of Hawk Performance HP+ pads from Z1. My plan is to swap pads between events but I might daily them if I have events back to back weekends.

anyone have any advice for someone thinking about trying autox finally? lol

I've pulled that with my hp+ pads. Overall I liked em but more towards the end of their life they started to Not work so well for autocross. At that point I kept switching back to stock pads for some events because my hawk pads just refused to stop even though the pad had some life left.
