I think the DA was 1800 - 2000. It was Beech Bend Raceway in Bowling Green, KY. The slip is posted in this thread somewhere, but the 60' was a crummy 2.1x. I got the launch down pretty good but the shift from 1-2 it'd fish tail costing me time. Going from auto mode to manual mode shaved 2/10ths by the way. With good tires and a 1.7 - 1.8 60' it's well in to the 12s.

I drive a 600RWHP manual trans 2009 Challenger at the track a lot and run 10.90s thus far with it so driver finesse is a lot of it. I'm one of only 3 manual trans Challengers in the 10s that we know of.

A 10.90 w a manual. Nice to meet a true drag racer. I also met Jason your # one bolt on guy in Florida. I was there when he did that 12.2 ......

He might not be into drag racing today. That seems to be my future as well

LOL, well all the auto guys make fun of us stick drivers. We're the hard headed ones that tear up more stuff on those cars than you can shake a stick at LOL

It's all fine with me. I drive that Challenger to work and all over the place and spend a lot more time on the street with it where rowing gears is a lot more fun than an auto. If it had a GOOD auto trans in it like the Z, I'd have an auto though as the autos run right at .5 faster in ET at the same power levels as us stick guys. They are easier on drive train parts as well. A lot of the original stick drivers have actually done auto conversions.

Here's one of my runs:

Default I'm going to try go to Atco this weekend if weather is good

No mods, just curious & it's almost over. Also there is bracket racing, IMPORT VS DOMESTIC That could be fun. The domestic guys are much better drivers, as a group. Sorry.

I had a very serious brain injury this year where I almost d..... So I hope I can handle driving that far and competing.

Anybody going?????

Please, just don't hit me in the head.....

Default Are my goals/expectations too high????

I just got a 2012 370z automatic. Only 1,200 miles on it. I would like to take it to Atco this Sunday for the Import vs Domestic drag racing.

There is no time this week to go to my tuner for test pipes & an Osiris tune, plus no time to order some good drag tires. So I'll bring it to my friendly Nissan dealer near my house. I will ask them to do something for me(secret)shhh, also raise my RPM red line plus change the oil with 5/30 Mobil one.

With street tires, can I break into the 12.9's & win bracket one over ALL the domestic & ALL the imports?????

You think my goals/expectations are a bit too high????

Even with ATCO's mine shaft air, 12.9s will be tough on street tires.

Do not raise the redline unless you want to destroy the motor. The oil pump comes apart at higher than stock rpm.

My 08 Z had it's redline/shut off at 7,700rpm & I shifted at 7500/7600 rpm. Every drag racer that does good times & has a 370 or the H.R 350 does/did the same thing. I think your # one bolt on record holder 12.2 was shifting at 7800 rpm. I can be wrong on that one. I was there in person & I think that's what he said.

Now what about my goals/expectations

There have been multiple people who have lost their motors at the track with raised redlines. This isn't a 350. The internals of the oil pump are sintered metal and it comes apart at higher than stock rpm. It would be a shame to break it the same week you bought it, but its your car.

You know that it's very hard for me to compromise/play safe. Did you see my video on youtube andre12031948 "in a blink of an eye" That's the only way I drive, actually worst, it's an old video

Car has a warranty..... till 60k on engine

It's your car. It's a risk, but it doesn't inconvenience anybody but you if it blows up.

with trap speeds close to 110mph, you'd think mid low 12's shouldnt be a problem. there just arent enough people actually trying to drag their 370's competitively.
