This should be in the drag racing forum.

Post a slip so we can analyze.

Are you even for real? Your just not making a whole lot of sense.

If you really want us to analyze your time, post it up in the drag racing section.

Then give us a scan of your timeslip, or a breakdown of it atleast.

The car is running well picking up 21 MPH in the second 660 feet. 2.0 seconds is good. When you get a chance post your time slip here: https://my350z.com/forum/drag/233840-top-25-1-4-mile-times-for-tt-st-supercharger-nitrous-bolt-ons-stock.html

Thanks for the run down of your time. Seems like you have a pretty strong car. Check out the drag section for some tips to get those times improved.

Is your car stock? Thats not bad for what seems like your first time. 2.0 in the 60' department is pretty good, especially if your on street tires.

Damn best I ran stock was 14.00 @ 101. I ran a 14.10 @101 modded with 19's. I say your 13.9 is about right. Im a shatty straight line racer though.

Hey man were you at capitol? I went to see how good I could do with my 19's on and was running 13.9's all night. My best with stock rims on was a 13.8. And I'm auto. Your times arent bad for your first time out.

Your times are really good for your first attempt.. probably squeeze a few more tenths out of it with a 1.9 60ft and some good DA. Don't let these guys con you into thinking every 350Z is a mid to low 13 second car getting out of the 14s is something to be proud of.
