yea DA was 1050' ish , the low MPH i believe is due to me not taking the gears as far as I should and granny shifting due to the tire sway I was getting. The car felt as if it was floating on water or huvvering, very hard to explain but didnt feel good at all, and I was very conservative to be honest.

I used OEM 300ZX wheels with M/T ET Street Slicks ( not the drag radials ) I did not do burnouts or go through the water, I just went around and did a rolling burnout or two. Def not a good time for these tires as far as 60 foot goes. I need to figure out how to disable ABS or get a line lock to do burnouts. 26x10.5 on 16 inch wheels... Its a super tall soft sidewall, not for the everyone with stock rubber up front. As soon as I sell my f.i. LTH group buy spot , I am going to order the street drag radial in the same size so I can feel safe and confident going down the strip.

I plan to improve it soon, but i keep writing this. No more excuses but give me a month the time and mph will get a little better. It was only the 2nd time out, and first ever on slicks with no skinnies. So I am still getting used to the car and learning.
Slicks? YOU SUCK!

Just kidding. Pretty good for your first time out w/ slicks, 2nd time ever. Keep practicing...seems like you've got a handle on it. Hope the pumpkin doesnt blow lol.
