Default New Best Time - Opening Night

Infineon Raceway in Northern California hosted the first night of the Wednesday Night Drag series this evening. I only was able to get 3 runs in before the rain started, but I have a new best time. I have not modded the car or changed anything since last season.

Right Lane

Car # 1000

13.377 @ 103.08 MPH

I'm pretty happy with the time. My Car is N/A with exhaust, test pipes, plenum spacer, pop charger, & drag radials.

Thanks Alberto. I'm still struggling to catch you. Yes, my Z is a very early '03. Seems to get stronger as it ages. If I do the pulley's and flash the ecu, I might be able to squeak out a few more HP, but I think i'm as fast as I can get with my current setup.

Your trap is a tad low. What did you trap stock? With your mods Id expect 104/105mph-local guy here has same mods as you except he has a crank pulley and he traps 105mph at a so so track, I liked the mod, it did good for me NA. I think after you do 1 more mod a tune is in order to maximize the mods Keep up the good work...

My stock trap speeds were between 99 on the low end and 102 on the high end so i'm not sure. I'll have to get that crank pully on and see how I do.

Thanks for all of the positive feedback guys. I'm surprised I did so well on my first night back to the track. I've been out of practice since November. Can't wait to try agiain next Wednesday.

If he pulled a 2.0-2.2 ( normal street tire 60 ft) he would be in the 104's or possibly 105. But with a low 1.9 60 ft like that his 103 is pretty decent.
