Z eliminator · 05-04-2010, 09:47 PM

I put on the 305 35 18 drag radials tonight and took the car out for a few test run.s
There is a difference in weight of 5.5 lbs from the sport 19's to the 18 x 10.5 volk t37's with the drag radials. Thats 11 lbs of the drive line of the car and you can feel the difference. You can feel the diference in mid to high rpms.
Traction is much better than the stock tires. I had 30 lbs of air in then can not wait till i take them down to 20 or 16 lbs.
If it does not rain on friday night im off to the track.
They fit perfectly on the 370z.

Goolsbymd · 05-06-2010, 02:28 AM

Whats your 60 time?

Z eliminator · 05-06-2010, 07:12 AM

if it does not rain on friday night i will be at the drag strip.
i drove the car to the golf course 8 km, car handled well on them, there is one big difference, the ride was a lot quieter. no tire noise.
I will post time on saturday, the weather does not look good for friday night,

The wheels and tires look great. Your Z is going fly at the drag strip with the extra power and now much needed traction to keep her hooked up!

I just finished installing the the 15 lb braile battery tonight, Thats a weight saving of 20 lbs off the front of the car. Will post picture of battery tomorrow night.
it took about 1 1/2 hour's to install it . The car started perfectly with the braille.

I posted in the 12.942 thread. Not a good time at the track tonight.

Too bad on the times, but at least it wasn't the car or the driver... under those conditions you should just call it good practice and have a beer...

This Saturday the Z club is going to Toronto Motor Sports park. My best time there so far is a 12.91. at that track.
I learned a lot about too much traction with the drag radials as the car bogged on the line last Wednesday night.
Since there's a major event at the track. It will be hard to get more than 3 runs in as our test and tune runs will happen when there is a break in the days main event.
At least im going to see some gerat drag racing that day.
The track will be fully dressed that day so the lanes will be fast.
It will be different drag racing with the stands full of people. The 370 z now does great burn outs so a least it will look good coming to the line.
Z.

Was a great day at the track.

Was the launch not very good?

Z eliminator · 09-20-2010, 09:04 AM
