Hmmm we just might have to seriously consider him for the 1/4 from what it seems. I'm guessing he's pulled some impressive times in 350z's before? Anyone mind pointing me to a thread or some info? Thanks!

There will only be 6MT cars at the event. The kit has been installed on an automatic g35 with no issues, but it was never tracked.

G35's arent meant for tracks, they are designed for groceries.

Dont turn this into a Alberto vs Terps......You live in his area....you beat him...I am sure Scott will give you a call

Knowing Alberto he will take this as a "Call out"......

I've meet him a few times and he is extremly down to earth and a very cool guy, these wernt stabs at him more the nuthuggers

interested, If you need someone to push the limits of the kit in a hot lap type environment, this sounds like fun.

Albeit I have relatively little track experience, I do have a lot of experience driving really fast. Plus I have driven or ridden in everything from de, he,at,ty,stillen sc z's plus I don't know if it helps but I am going to school to get a ME degree. Also fairly local out of charlotte nc. Have some friends aswell with more modded z's who would probably be interested intagging along to. Compare kits. Plus I am planning my own FI build in the near future. Just thought I would toss my hat into the ring.

Ask anybody that has ridden with me, or raced me, I have opened a lot of eyes as to the idea of actually requiring skill to drive fast straight-even from a roll. My car is not set up for dragging but Ive been doing it for nearly 10 years now. I'll start "slow" and work up some...keep in mind I have an 03" Z and most of these times were YEARS ago. Im on the top ten "fastest stock Z", "fastest DE with bolt ons", "Single turbo", 'Twin turbo" and top ten on the "overall drag list"

*Some of these vids were on a "closed course" If a mod would like me to remove them I will ASAP or they can, I only want to post to share!

NA w/bolt ons first time on slicks

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/0...-down_3566.htm

Single Turbo-made 396whp then was detuned a little-to this day the only TN kit in the 11's. The only other car in the 11's with a ST that I know of is Intenses Built G35

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/A...tics_34346.htm

TN track day-runs were all in order-look at the consistency-2 back to back 11.9 runs

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/A...-day_49776.htm

Driving from a roll is easy right? Lets prove that point

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/A...obra_44550.htm

Roll run Greddy twins now-same power for both cars, same tuner, same dyno



Why I dont powershift anymore-bye bye 3rd gear



New slicks, front radials too wide = sideways fun



Better run on old setup, @ 525whp-FULL interior



ZdayZ video-go to end to see runs with other cars of same or slightly more power



I have more but you get the idea...Momentum may not let me drive after seeing the 3rd gear carnage LMAO!!

+whatever on berto. if there is something that has the potential to break, he's the man expose the weakness of the car. best R&D driver you can have so that the product is rock solid, cause if berto cant break it, no one can.
