So went to 75/80 in Maryland last week. Car is completely stock 03 base other than a nismo diff. There were less than 10 cars so got a lot of runs in.



First run


Last run


Both runs posted were in the right lane. Also lifted to shift. Are these times respectable?

 

Had no idea that 75/80 was even open. Haven't been there for about 15 years.

14.15 is the best run. 2.0 second 60 feet time is impressive. Z is picking up 20.4 MPH in the second 660 feet. Would like to see 21 or 22 MPH. Glaring area for improvement is 1/8 time. This is generally the result of a sloppy first to second gear shift.

 

60ft is good enough to Run 13's. Time isn't bad but it isnt great either. 1-2 and 2-3 shift need to be quicker as the 1/8 is slow for that launch.

 

I think my 1-2 shift was my major problem throughout the evening. Couldn't seem to grab second without a little tire spin. Definitively need more practice though.

 

Went back to the track again with 275/35r18s, jwt clutch kit, and 4.08 gears(did these since I had to replace the inner pinion bearing so why not), and still on the 6600 rpm redline.
While fun at autocross, this setup definitely wasn't working in my favor, which I knew going in. I had to take it easy to shift to second or I'd get horrible wheel hop, and 3,4,5 were all no lifts.

I'd like to go back with fresh tires on the factory wheels and the rev limit raised.

Track prep was really good tonight though. One guy managed a 1.09 60ft
