1/4 mile Bradenton FL

Oh boy, here we go.

I have no intention to make my sports car thats designed for the road course, to the drag strip. I got over that **** with my 2000 Camaro. It was fun for a while. The high-11 seconds of fun got boring pretty quickly, and now I'll stick to AutoX-ing and road coursing, thank you.

But FWIW, I cut better 60's with my 235/16 Goodyear Eagle's . And yes, it was a 6-speed.

I misinterpreted your post. Sorry.

But there's nothing wrong with taking your car to the drag strip. Sure, it would be stupid to by this car just to drag race it, but it's a decent performer.

You're right. I suppose thats the snob in me that just got over the drag strip. Different strokes for different folks I suppose, and you're right, it is a solid performer. I'd be worried about those axles, though.

I'm not worried - I've got 400 passes on my car; over 200 of which were 6k+ rpm clutch drops on bfg dr's. Stock transmission, stock diff, stock axles.

Jesus please tell me you have broken 13.3. With 400 passes I can't relate poor 1/4 mile times to bad driving here anymore.

13.264@104mph - and that's at 265whp/250wtq on a dynojet - in other words, about 15 to 20 horsepower less than a stock 370z, and a bit more torque than a stock 370z. But it's a g35, so there is also the longer wheelbase and the weight penalty.

That's good for the #1 spot for all motor times on g35 driver dot com, and #10 for all motor on my 350z dot com. The latter I am quite proud of, because I'm only one of two g35s on that list.
