Run it at another track, since it seems that the timing was off....end of story. Look at your 1/8 mph and the 1/4 mph and it definetly brings up a BS flag. I would put buslengths on a stock Auto Z and I would have a match that 1/8 to 1/4 gain.

 

Keep running your mouth.

 

Still don't see the 13.3 slip from you...so can it.

 

But consider this, every Z is different. None of us has yet to figure out the complex ECU that we have. Granted, the track time I pulled has my car at its absolute peak, spare/jack/mat removed, higher octane fuel mixture, great temperatures, dense air (barrometer was high), low fuel (nice weight savings), and a sticky track. I won't run that on the street, period. The stuff about the track timing being off, you think a track that runs many NHRA sanctioned events throughout the year has its timing off? C'mon now. Can't anyone just cope with the fact that Atco is one of the better tracks in the US, its very close to sea level, it has great air, and a sticky sticky *** track with good prep.

 

You are dwelling on something I said about a 130 posts ago, get over it. You'll see the slip, its not like I'm saying I'm going 11's N/A, its an obtainable time. Like I asked about 6 times, could you quit posting in this thread. Mods close this, it has obviously gotten way off track and people can't seem to control themselves and handle arguments like adults.

 

Your car is putting down considerably less power than a manual Z; something doesn't add up. A manual stock Z would have a hard time matching your ET and I have never seen a manual Z pull that hard after the 1/8th. You weren't running an NHRA sactioned probably, so Yes the timing could be off. Chicago has fast tracks as well, this is nothing special. In fact Route 66 raceway was the fastest track in the country(don't know if it still is).g

 

I believe it. I don't think the ETs are wrong either. They rarely are. The MPHs might be off by 1-1.5mph and if they are, it's the 1/8 mile boxes that are the culprit. I'd bet he's actually going over 80mph in the 1/8 just like a lot of the quicker Zs are doing. That would solve the problem with the excessively high 1/8 mile trap gain.

I wish my G could 60 foot like the auto Zs do. 2.0 60 foots seem to be no brainers.

 

Heh, get some slicks that fit a Mustang and you'll be good to go!

 

275/40/17 Mickey ET radials will do

 

The G35 auto sedans can't pull out of the hole. Even brake torquing it to it's stall results in a bog on the stock tires out of the hole. Must be something in the ECU tuning that's different from the auto Z's and auto G35 coupes. The 5AT sedans are DOGS below 3 grand...like stock civic territory.

 

Civic territory I pulled low 2.2s quite easily and I'm sure a mid 2.1 is possible is cooler weather. I did a 2.18 on drag radials. The bog is bad, but not that Civic bad. You're just too use to those nice 1.9-2.0 60 foots

The bog does kill my car though. I know that these cars would be .2-.3 quicker if that damn Nissan nanny wasn't in the way. We're starting to think the Sedan's yaw sensor is the culprit. Experiments are currently under way in a top secret laboratory.

 

Maybe not a civic...how about a Sentra SE-R....:P

 

Heh, then I guess Altima SE-R for the win.

 

Speaking of G35s....What do G35 Auto coupes typically run, low 14s? I had some guy try and race me out of a toll both today and was messing with him.

 

If they are LUCKY I'd say on a perfect day one might be capable of a 14.0-14.1...I've seen a couple run and they were all in the high 14s to low 15s..
