Good luck. With a 1.9 60' I think you could squeeze out a 12 second pass.

Also in regards to the trap speeds, whenever I run at MIR I cant trap higher than 102 no matter what I do. I always get my best ET there but my traps suck. At capitol i'm trapping 104 and 105 all day. Its weird.

 

Well at MIR I trap 105-106 and even get 107 sometimes. However at Cecil I pull off 106-107 and high 107s. It depends on the environment and the way the tracks are built. In my honest opinion the direction that MIR is placed in is disadvantageous. Most of the time from my experience there has been slight to strong head winds at MIR, sometimes the climate was better but I must say MIR does get you better E/Ts for some reason. I usually pull a lot better E/Ts at MIR. Well this all shows you that a track won't give you a definite definition of your driving skills and the power behind your wheels. I'm not encouraging street racing

 

I couldn't trap over 100 for some reason yesterday at MIR I only got in 2 runs.

13.9@99 using my shift points 7k and 13.9@97 shifting earlier as suggested from that link.

My 330 in the 1st run was 5.885 the 2nd was 5.811.

I did the 1-2 at 6600 but the 2-3 I did it at my usual 7k so I was losing power both runs had 2.035 60fts.

I would of gotten faster with more time definately. I might go to cecil to try it out this weekend.

 

I think I'll be there Sat....weather permitting.

 

what time if you decide to go? AJ are you coming out possibly?

 

I don't know man.....says the gates open at 8, but what time do they start to run? It's at least an hour and a half drive for me.

Weather....Partly cloudy and high of 41.....perfect.

 

which way would you come? I could meet you on the highway along the way. I live off 695. I'll bringthe camera.

The website says racing at 9 close at 4.

Franky last sat did they have any other events besides test n tune? I would like more than 2 runs for $30.

Have any of you guys weighed your car at MIR? My car is a PIG 3730 with me in the car and 3520 without.

AJ come out with the Z and the MAX.

 

LOL.....mine weighed 3130 at the Frederick Dump (closest scale)...in its current form.

They said there was very few people there last weekend.

I think I will probably leave Frederick around 8-830. I would take 70 to 695....so if you want to meet up thats cool with me.

 

Hey Mid-A folks.....I think perhaps we should start our own thread. We are kind of cluttering up a top 25 thread without really contributing. We should keep this for posting of PB (and discussions pertaining strictly to them) for this thread. It makes it more time consuming for the admin to wade through our pages of discussion in search of peoples PB's.

I'll start it now .

only test and tune i got 20 runs atleast traps 106-107 mph average was 13.4-13.5 on my runs my best was 13.44@107.77 mph

 

Franky....we are going to try and keep our convo in the thread linked in my last post. Thanks for the input though....I'll be there sat.

 

2nd time at the track....i still need more practice!.....im launching at 2500 rpms with 4.083 gears and stock tires..any advice would be greatly appreciated!.im a noob at drag racing!!..thanks



08 nismo 350z 6spd
N/A
street tires

 

oh i just realized that we had identical times with solo350z!lol

 

What was the weather like?

 

i say ur 60ft. is pretty bad and can be greatly improved...u should be able to pull 2.0's with the street tires and an occasional 1.9 maybe, i say maybe...with street tires before any boost i would preload the car and have the clutch out as far as possible and feather it out from 2700..a little spin is not a bad thing but any hopping is bad and excessive spinning of course..id rather have a slight spin than a bog it pulls better 60ft's..dont drive thru the water box go around and just spin the tires off a little before staging..no big burnouts, with that said ur mph is pretty good and should get u into mid 13's with a good launch..good luck keep at it and crack mid 13's and get into consistent 2.0 60ft. times and the rest will come

 

thanks man very helpful!

 

temp was around 55-60.humidity 87%

 

Like 90 percent of novice racers, 60 foot time is hurting ET. Get the first 60 feet down and the rest takes care of itself. You are driving a 13.6 second Z. Practice will get you there.

 

^thanks man
