Went to the track a couple weeks ago, but got hit with a sickness and it made me too tired to post my new times!

Second night on the track that this Z has seen, and I am super happy with the time I got. Spent all night running stupid 13.9-14.2 second times, then I girded my loins and pulled off...



a 13.546!!! I am super happy with the time.

With the guidance of my buddy driving a 300ZX, I learned some good technique on letting the wheels slip on the clutch and hook themselves on 3/4 throttle. I didn't get many more runs after that, since my friend and his 14 second RSX decided to explode it's second gear, and die on us. Overall though, it was a great night with a lot of buddies. This might be the last run I do in the completely bone stock class, since I am itching on finally installing my HFC's I bought so long ago. We shall see, though.

Nice run, James. I see you're improving with practice.

Did you change the tire pressure at all? What rpm were you launching at?

Thanks Ray.

I actually did play with the pressures - it turns out I've been driving around at 40 psi cold. I lowered my pressures to 32-35 (gauge was super erratic for whatever reason), and that was when I got my 13.5. The launch was around 4.5 to 5k, it didn't hop nearly as much as it did before, and after a bit of wheelspin, it took off like a rocket. Felt much more connected to the ground by a long shot.

My buddy was recommending pressures as low as 25 - I was gonna give it a shot, but that was when I had to help my stricken friend and his broken car.

Give or take a tenth here or there, I am very impressed with the Power the New Z has.

I come from the land of old school and high Horsepower V-8 's. Back then it was all we had..Square tires too( biased ply).

Now you have V-6 engines running the same times or better...

Very Nice...

I have the best of both worlds...I need to get out to the dragstrip in 2012 to see what I run.

So, well done guys...

You definitely need to get the tire pressure down lower on the stock tires to get a decent launch. Even then anything over 1.9 60' isn't really getting it done.

I've got my best launches with 23 to 25 psi.
