I went to the track tonight, made 5 passes. There was a 2 hour 'break' to clean up a mess from a bike.

The DA's were about 1700 most of the night.

My best times tonight were:

13.657@102.7mph w/ 2.11 60'

13.675@102.2mph w/ 2.03 60'

13.759@102.9mph w/ 2.12 60'

I might have had a 13.4x or 13.5x pass but missed 3rd gear (I had a similar 330' time when I ran 13.495 a few months ago).

Otherwise a fairly disappointing night at the track, but I'm gonna try to go back next week!

I'm pretty disappointed. With all the mods and tune that I have, I only managed a 13.5 @ 105mph tonight. That was with a 2.0 60' time. Stock, I trapped 103mph.

Tell me about it...I'm not a very happy camper. My goal was to get the car in the 12s NA. Yeah, that's not happening!

And its not my driving capability...I had over 180 drag passes in my old G35. I managed a 12.2 out of only 350whp.

In regards to wheel hop, try lowering your tire pressure. My car had baddd wheel hop Thursday night at the track. You just have to play with the throttle a bit.

Its all about your tires and tire pressure... I ran 12.95 and average a 13.0-1 most passes.. With a 1.95 60 I got 12.95. You can get a better 60 than that too so I have room to improve.

Gears flywheel clutch headers all still left to do. These cars can def hit 12s n/a just takes practice.

504 370z, what track did you go to?

You should go post on the South Louisiana thread in the southern region of the forum. There are a few of us who like to go to the track occasionally.

Made a few runs tonight at the local track...

best run was:

13.493@103.91mph
2.09 60ft
DA = 1435

It's finally starting to cool off here! I normally trap 102.x mph but towards the end of tonight I was trapping 103.x mph.

+1 on the tire pressure. It helps a lot with launching. I run about 25psi in the rears and 40psi up front.
