hehe... 13.64 used to be a great time for an n/a Z.
For the 07' it is just an all right time.
Agree it is not pitiful, there will be worst than this, but there will definitely be better too.

. I did not want to rock the tires to much. In a weak or two ill go back with my other set of rims. This was done completely stock down to the tires. I smell a 13.4 easy with a good driver. I ran 14.00 with my 04 with mild mods so I am sure someone better can achieve nice numbers.

I cant wait to see what these cars do once mods and slicks or DR's come into play.
Yep, once you get that 60ft down you should be 13.3 easly.

are u shifting at the redline? cause i have an 07 and it feels like it hits the fuel cut before the redline. to me it seems the quickest shifting at about 7250, but i didn't really get a chance to play with that much cause i just finished break in on sunday night and the weather has been crap since.
the next test n tune at the local track is on march 18th, i'm gonna try to make it out if the weather permits, hopefully the weather will let me get some practice in before then to

:a friend of mine has an 04 z (stock) and i was able to launch his near perfect from the first try and every time after that, but i never drove it in near freezing temps
another thing thats killing me is wheel hop, I HATE IT
