Default 1st 350z drag race results

I have to work on launching this car. I managed a 1.9 60' on my 87 turbo, but NA power band is certainly different. I would get massive wheel hop and spin. I need to practice when the heat isn't on.Anyways, I mananged to trap 104.5MPH but only a 14.075. I am dissapointed, but I will do better; first time in the 350z.

Best:
60' 2.283
1/8 9.233
MPH 80.14
1/4 14.075
MPH 104.50

With VDC On, DOH!
60' 2.452
1/8 9.775
MPH 76.30
1/4 14.853
MPH 96.86

I'll trade you one of my 2.0 sixtys for some of your trap speed. Best I've done is a 13.4@102.9

I also had a Z31 a few years ago, 85 turbo and ran a 14.1 while eeking out a 1.86 sixty on 225/50 radials. That thing used to squat so hard you'd think the shocks were going to burst though, LOL.

Your 60' needs work.

Reynolds is not street tire friendly.

104.5 mph is excellent. You didn't mention anything about a 30 mph tail wind.

looks like good trap numbers, seems like you need to work on your launch, your 60 foot time seems high for your trap speed.

what is this vdc thing, some kind of traction control?
