Default Global Time Attack - Road Atlanta - Our NA 350z 4th Fastest Overall

Not sure if anyone uses forums any more since corporate America has ruined them all, but for those of you that are still here by habit I thought I would post some pictures of our Z at Road Atlanta.

I've always wanted to rip the track and when I heard that Global Time Attack was putting an event together and some of my Canadian friends would be heading down I was determined to do it.

The car ran amazing, felt amazing, sounded amazing, and was fairly quick. The gearbox is shifting very slowly which is one big problem, and the car just doesn't quite have the speed I was hoping 408whp would deliver.

Here are some pics, the full story is available at the website. Enjoy the pics and YouTube video!

Road Atlanta is not for the faint of heart- any mistakes there and you're sliding off and hitting something by the time you realize you made a mistake.

Good job!

Best "Z" build ever...Amazing work under the hood and bodyl!!

If possible, could you post a detail pic of the installation of the rear lexan window.....and the wing attachmend on the rear cf hatch and what about the wing... Did you finish the dynamic system for it?

It would be amazing if you can produce and sell some of this cf staff..looks absolutely mental!! Dash board...doors..diffuser, intakes...

Thanks to share!!

Danny Popp is a machine in corvettes, but a little surprised the mega 350 wasn't able to get passed his TTS time. I'm sure you guys will go much quicker next time, though.
