NO problems, as i have had the car to 168mph on its speedo. If i was to go faster, i do think it would need more down force in the rear.

That's awesome man... just difficult to imagine that you're pulling a 12.6 and trapping 111 with just bolt-on/geared/tuned 370z.... do you feel like you could have gotten a bit faster time or is that about the limit for the car you think?

At 89F and with a DA of 2000 there is definitely room for him to improved his time and trap speed. 12.68 @ 111 is a really good in those conditions.

To the OP I think your Z is capable of running 12.5X when the weather is cooler and you get a better DA closer to 500.

also on the 12.6 pass it is not my best 60' . i have gotten a 1.903 , so that alone would better my time on the big end!
