I agree with BoomSpoon. Im not a 1/4 mile guy (anymore) and if I test my cars abilities against someone it is going to be on street tires. So i want to know what I can run best with my most common setup.

I used to drive around on drag radials it gets very expensive.

Fair enough, just curious! Streets are so sketchy with big power, and here you're lucky to get 3 runs in a night. Nothing worse than wasting it on a botched run...

This was my best time of the day 14.26...

First time at the track... It was a blast! I just don't understand why our times at 5000 ft + altitude are so different than the ones posted here??

I ran with a 2013 GT500 with 650hp who ran a 13.97 and had a best time of 13.78 for the day?? WTF?

Congrats you're the fastest Roadster on the list!

Well I sold my Z for a '13 GTI and '13 Aprilia RSV4 R. More comfy and more scary all at once :icon17:

Just thought id share my outing at the track to compare my times. Seems I still have launch problems lol.

60 foot was similar to my Z, 2.1 vs 2.2 seconds.

Z went 13.5 at 105 with an open dif and launch issues (heavy 19" f14 wheels)

6MT K04 GTI went 13.3 at 110 and I think she has 12s in her with better launching and some new tires other than these shitty stock all seasons. Slips at the end of the video.

Sad part is I got bored in the winter and got rid of her before I tried out my new dif and 4.08s. I know the Z had more to give with practice and the new mods. Maybe the new owner will show me how its done if I ever find out who has it.

Thanks... Wish I could run her closer to sea level and not at 5000ft altitude.

Wow. Corrected for elevation, that is a good run.

I make sure to only record downhill times, myself.

Thanks for the compliment man! Nitrous is cool... but I really look forward to putting twin turbos on later. :)

Everything still running ok?
Been a couple months.

Everything runs like stock until I turn on the N20. I've ran through 4 10lb bottles and nothing "weird" has happened since the Zex kit has been installed. I'm currently on my 5th bottle as of today (completely full).

It's a great mod if someone is looking to keep their car 95% stock and get similar power of a SC. The option to change power just by changing out the fuel pill and N20 is amazing. Taking my car from 50HP to 75HP took me 10min.

One of the biggest drawbacks from N20 appears to be filling the bottle. For me, it's not a huge deal because I own the filling station and get refills at cost. Another draw back is having to take the bottle out and refill... but that's pretty minor.

---

One more thing... I plan on keeping the Nitrous installed and running it with turbos in the future.

Let me know if there is anything else you want to know specifically!

THAT'S the spirit. :tiphat: Yes, I still pay attention and get updates.

I no longer have the car, but the combo was killer. Have at it. :eekdance:

Hey guys, any suggestions as to the best way to launch? I was experimenting with hard launching and wheel spin vs high revs and slipping the clutch. So far my best 60' is a 2.1. Now I have 11" wheels in the back and I wanna do better. Any advice from the pros? What rpm should I hold at, stuff like that.
