I came to Florida to meet & race with Ray & Jason. Before coming, I got good vibes from them, & I was right.
Not only are they good guys, but also smart with their approach for improvements, and also talented drag racers.
As for me, everything that could go wrong did:( The wheels/tires I bought to possibly improve my times & stabilize my ride, did not fit!!! Also, 1st racing night (Wed.) I could NOT get traction & could not get into second gear:( Had this problem before, last summer at Lebanon valley. Was not a happy guy! What must they have thought of me:) Finally on Friday, after again missing 2nd. gear, I started to go through the 1/4 in more than one gear. 12.896 @ 107+ 12.910 @ 107+ then a 12.872. Not my best, but at least in the 12's:) One run I decided to go for it, 1.812 60' 5.309 330' then, YES, I shifted from second to fifth? :( The 60' foot was by far my best 60' ever. What might have been?:( but just wasn't in the cards.

Both Jason & Ray ran on STREET TIRES - AMAZING!
Ray's 12.8 was with stock gears, no tune, STOCK intakes, & test pipe back STOCK exhaust. OUTSTANDING!
Jasons unbelievable 12.2 was with only bolt-ons. AMAZING!

it was great meeting you Andre! Definitely some kickass runs last week. I think I still have that video of you missing 2nd gear running Jason! :icon17:

^^ andre had a great time racing!! no matter the outcome still good times!

Thank you guys for putting up with my "idiosyncrasies"(hope I'm using the right word:)

Want to add for all you 370z owners-370's are faster than 350's! Saw it with my own eyes:)

Maybe you all knew that, but till Jason showed up, there was no proof of it. Even Ray who hardly has any mods, put down a 12.899. 370 seems to have 20+ hp more, bit lighter, & as Jason pointed out, & both guys proved it, the shorter 370 wheel base is better for traction.(for obvious reasons). As far as my mods, I have 3:90 gears, flywheel, test pipes, tune, m/t radials/m&h slicks. STOCK intake, STOCK T.P. back exhaust. I've been doing consistent 12.7's & 12.8's. Had a chance to get a great et time on Friday(don't ask:) I'm going to have some fun this Wed. at W. Palm Drags. I don't think they prep the track on Wed. only Fridays & weekends. Anyway, my last day drag racing in Florida.:(

No thanks, I don't want to see the video:) I don't remember missing any second gears, or shifting into 5th. from second. None of this ever happened:)

Went to the track last night and I only got two runs in. First run I lowered my tire pressure and finally cut a 2.0 60 foot but for some reason I ran a 13.5 (which is what I always run) at 102.1 MPH. I cant seem to figure out why my MPH was so low. I normally run 2.1 60 foots and run 13.5 at about 105. Any ideas?

^ it could be the weather? Is your Z a 7AT or 6MT?

Weather was decent, like 65 degrees and not too much humidity. It's a 6mt with Intakes and exhaust.

Maybe the car was having an off day? I've seen as high as 3mph from different days at the track with no changes to my car. How is your shifting?

Everything for the nitrous is installed but the fuel line didn't fit so we are still waiting on that. I have to work on Sunday but I'm considering calling in for the poker run lol
