thats not stock!!!!snow tires hook like drag radials.
makes no matter though bri, those are some great times you clicked off.
I made a couple passes yesterday on street tires for the first time in 5or 6 months and trapped 103+ in some shitty fl DA's, i was stoked my vert trapped that high in this weather.

As for the snow tires...they are the stock 17in sizes...235/50-17 in the rear and 225/50-17 in the front. Michelin Pilot Alpins.

thanks for the props dude...I'm impressed with your traps also.
Just a side note...about the density altitude. We ran on Saturday...not yesterday...a nice high pressure center came through yesterday....the DA was a bit higher on saturday.

Nice times! It shows your a great driver and I think you have a factory freak. BTW how many miles on your Z? I remember Autoweek had a longterm update on the Z with 40k miles and it trapped 103.

I think it has more to do with his driving ability and less with his car.
Another thing people keep forgetting is that if you drive the car economically (shifing ~2500rpms), the ECU will adjust for that. So if you're an economical driver on the weekdays and you go to the track on the weekend, your times might not be the best. If you do three runs, it might not fully adjust till the 3rd run, if at all. The best thing to do is to reset the ECU then drive really hard, then drag it. Or drive it really hard on the way to the strip
