I've only seen those traps once. Typical is 102-104 range for me. Remember, my car has at least 20 trips to the track on it.

Not really upset.. haha it's funny though that no matter how well you guys run it still gets dismissed for some off the wall reason. haha

As S8ER95Z knows, I'm curious about picking up 24.92mph in the 1/8th. More than my 110/111mph, trap speed runs in the 12s, entirely in 3rd gear.

But hey, at least it isn't like that Challenger owner claiming stock and picking up 28mph!!

Hey Deuuuce...

I would like to give some of the credit to the weather conditions...(DA was -891 feet) and certainly the other have to gifted driving. At least as you said we are not talking about 28mph gians. haha

Having to launch easy accounts for some of the 24+ pick up in the last 1/8th.

The car picked up about the same at SGMP in 60 degree weather with a head wind, over a year earlier, back then trapping just over 107, with far less miles.

I was unable to trap over 101 and change in my basically stock 04 Z. You're times are simply awesome. For your ET it would seem like you'd be somewhere around 300whp, right?

I would say 290ish? The 350Z is much lighter than my Camaro and I should be making ~300rwhp...
