In the wet it was a challenge in precise throttle control on corner exit, squeezing on the power too early was costly.

Come to nats or even a tour and say that...

I'm the said 350z boardkat is referring to. I would love to drive someone's 370 but I guess it will have to wait until someone local buys one.

In a 350Z, the stock vlsd is junk for auto-x, street tires or r-comps. And the lack of camber is junk to. Fix one or both, and no doubt in my mind would I have easily trophied (i blew my trophy because the damn hoosiers would overheat on the nastly west course and I couldn't keep the car tidy, and coned each run).

I can't imagine the 370 is going to much better in terms of front camber and quality vlsd (if you can even call a vlsd a quality diff)
