congrats chuck, glad you got a nice running car.

blades, a word of caution when pulling the brake light fuse. You won't be able to move the shifter from "Park" to "Drive" because it the car doesn't know you're pushing the brake pedal when the fuse has been removed. So when you do decide to do it, pull up the e-brake, leave it in "Neutral" then turn off the car. Pull the fuse. When it's time to make a run, it'll start up in neutral and you should be able to slide it into Drive even though the fuse isn't there.

A little something I learned watching a 350Z 5AT at our local track.

I don't know if I'm even gonna try pulling the brake fuse, but thanks anyway for the advice.

I'm thinking of trying a 370z with bolt-ons(only)class. I like being in that almost stock class, because the driver is the most important mod. A 500h.p. Z getting beat by a 600h.p Z, reflects more on the builder & the owner's wallet.
Looks like there's not much going on here at this time. Nothing exotic, maybe I'll do an after market exhaust this time.
I'm thinking that I might be able to be in the 12.1 to 12.4 range.
Looking forward for some fun. As always, I would welcome 350z/370z racers to join me. MD, N.J. N.Y. drag strips. Keep you posted.

BLACK or WHITE color....

b1adesofcha0s

That would be fun, let me know and I will join you in MD

Good to get some excitement going before coming winter

I'll go to MD. I'd like to meet Mike & some others.

As far as more racing, how about Atco. It's close to MD.

I did make an appearance last spring at that small MD track.
It was a cold, very windy(sideway) day. Two runs, 12.6's then because of much side wind & long trip home, I left after just two runs. A yellow Camaro there got a suprise when he lost one car lenght 12.6 vs 12.7

Now I'm getting psyched...........

b1adesofcha0s

2.5 hrs away from me in NJ, that's kinda far

I'd be ok with something within MD itself. Of course, we'd have to wait till March when the tracks open up again.

Hi buddy, I wish I could. My Z not running, totaled/flooded, at shop, LS?
LS swap=very expensive/not street reliable/must be automatic. What to do? 370Z ?

Last year, even with all my problems, front wheels/tires didn't fit-wide radial front tires & reg ply slicks don't mix=I was all over the track-second gear was broken(that was a bitch)-learned later/in spring that I was not using the slicks the proper way. With all that, I still had a good time.
Would love to come, but with no car, I won't.
Maybe next year. Strip club a must!
Raceway Park N.J. in spring????

Z eliminator

My season up here is over. Next year the target is mid 11.s.
I bought a new 7 AT with 100 miles on it and GTM is building it into a stage 4 for me.
I would like to make a pass with it to see if it will get me into the 12.2's with the N/A set up.
But the car will have the GTM stage 2 SC on it and im going to be running 11 lbs boost
I got a price for the roll bars set up 2500.00.
It was a good year at the track this year.

Long island people are screwed out of close tracks due to rich people bitching about noise until 11pm :-(

It took me 1 & 1/2 hours from E. Meadow to Raceway Park N.J. Coming back, 4&1/2 hours

I used to live about 30 min from Raceway Park, but now I'm about 20 hours away!

On the brightside, I live 20 min from another nice track.
