I had 26psi for the first 2 runs. I lowered them to 25psi for the last one but the light issue messed up with my launch approach. One I saw the green I just slammed it.

I guess it was the issue of getting caught up racing against the guy in the other lane, it was a Mach 1 Mustang from a Mustang club that was racing that day. I beat him :tup: but messed up my 60', I had my best trap speed on that run so with a better launch I would had improved my time.

Anyway, it was my first time and now I'm hooked!

Yeah it happens like that. I went one time in my Challenger then I had to have drag radials, stronger axles, race tunes, more boost, on and on LOL

I am greatly impressed with the new technology ...I have owned a 300ZX, a 350Z, and now a 370Z sport touring, and it is incredible...No time slips, but my 1971 Pro touring Z/28 witht eh factory LT-1, close ratio M-21 and 3.73 gears running 400Hp plus ran a 13.3 at 104 20 year ago..i have yet to run it with the new Kand N, MSD, Exhaust and Complete suspension overhaul, but I have a V8..I am sure my new 370 is side by side with the Z/28, and that is with a 6 cylinder auto stock and I have a lot of engine mods. ...Very, Very impressed...Then you get into the handling and the 370z is much more fun to drive...

It is sweet having the best of both worlds and my car from my youth modernized with high end goodies, but the 370Z......Man oh man..I am glad i got it, got the touring sport..LOVE it.

I'll be hitting the track with mine soon :)

I did a 13.68 @ 103.95mph w/ 2.13 60' yesterday. Mods as listed in the sig. I really can't launch this car worth a crap yet though, too used to AWD from past cars.

tranceformer 02-27-2012 05:51 PM

Could you post a slip to confirm it?

That said, The Shop CT has already rented Atco Dragway for Monday Mar 5th.

It will be pricier than a friday T&T, but no waiting. Consider. I'm planning on being there with my newest setup.

We're still on. FYI.

My car is running like Jack the Bear. If you've never heard that saying, you're a LOT younger than me. LOL!

I looked for the slip...

I had 6 passes total, 3 good and 3 bad. She threw away the 'Good' stack while cleaning the house....

So no. :(

What was the temp outside when you ran this? And are you way above sea level or something?

I ran 13.6@105 with my 350Z with a cold air intake and exhaust... I think i had a 2.2 or 2.1 60' too..... The temp was 92 degrees out too
This was with Stock bridgestones.

Don't you guys require slips as proof?

I don't think my Challenger is gonna be ready for opening day tomorrow. Still got some new parts to get put on, so I may get my first passes in the Z tomorrow.
