The car has alot of power! The gears make it alittle tricky to launch and shift through. Even with this soft slip of the clutch launch I still spun hard in 2nd gear when I dumped the clutch.

You can pick up 3/10's of a second in your 60" time alone after some practice.
I think you have a 13.1 or so car with your setup.

Power shifting doesn't make you faster. I wouldn't worry over whether or not you can power shift. You need to be more concerned with clutch feel and release, throttle modulation, proper launch techniques, and shifting faster first. Good show, though. Your Z should be capable of 12 sec passes. You'll get there.

I sometimes let off while shifting. I need to practice power shifting more. If Tyler runs the car a couple times you will see alot better times but he bailed

I'd love to try your car, I think it'd be a blast to drag, but probably more suited to a road course with the mod list you have.
I knew if I compared your car to mine it would turn into a dick measuing constest to the bystanders.
I'll be going back to the track with a different setup hopefully soon. I know I won't set any records, it's too hot down here for that, but it should be fun regardless.

drag racing times
Its been a few weeks since last visit to a track. With cooler weather coming, I'm looking forward to start going again. I'll be going to Raceway Park & maybe Atco in N.J. It would be nice not to be the only Z. Anyone interested???? With cooler weather, maybe some 12.8's ????

Its been many weeks since last drag strip visit. Last night Zim & I enjoyed Leb. Valley drag's last week day. The house was packed, unfortunately, only 2 Zzzzs.
Its a nice track in the mountains of N.Y.S, with only fair traction. The best I could do there is 13.0-13.1. One of my 3 runs was very interesting-1st. to 2nd. to fifth gear to 3rd. to 4th. What was my time? 13.4.... Am I bragging? Just part of the fun
I'll plan on going a couple of times to N.J's tracks before end of season. I'm hoping to see 12.8.........
