Went to the track tonight for my first time ever.
R/T ... .241
60' ... 2.306
330 ... 6.454
1/8 ... 9.739
mph... 76.92
1000 ...
1/4 ... 14.866
mph ... 95.65

The Track is Alabama International dragway. What do i need to work on? Another Z owner at the track said i was trapping pretty low. My mods are Ist gen Crawford Plenum and Injen intake.6MT

 

Take the intake off and drop that 60ft to 1.9-2.1 and you should see a big improvement.

 

Yeah, sell the injen and buy a k@n drop-in filter and test pipes. Get that 60' down to 2.0 and you'll be fine.

 

Like 90 percent of new racers, your 60 foot time is killing your ET.

 

Im thinking about getting a set of stock wheels for the rear and run a drag radial on them for when i go to the track. How are the axles will they hold up fairly well? Im sure i can find a stock intake box on the forums for sale.I will look into the test pipe. I only got to run twice my first 60ft was 2.533. Guess practice will make perfect.

 

Agree. You don't need to make the car faster, you need to make you faster. Why waste money on anything? When you are running 13.99 seconds or better, then tweak the car.

Fix the driver first. Then the car.

 

Agreed big time!

I love how when people go to the track and are dissatisfied with their times, they immediately feel the need to buy something to make it faster. Most feel drag radials/slicks will fix their problem. If you cant launch on street tires, what makes people so confident to launch on drag radials?

 

be 100% sure that you are bringing your revs all the way up to redline, or else you won't get good times.

 

Hey mr. kebo.. I just happen to have a stock intake and the k&n drop in filter still.
