Default 2003 350z New Personal Best

Beat my previous time of 13.7 still can't get traction though.



I seem to be doing decent times compared to others on the site and the fastest n/a in town and the only 350z who races lol.

In regards to your traction issues, what tires are you running? When you perform your holeshot, are you rolling thru the burnout box, or staying in the box when you spin 'em??? I'm running eagle gt's on my roadster and hooked up nice by rolling thru the box and ran a 12.9 w/ a cai and catback only. Just give the meats a quick spin when you roll thru, do your holeshot to the point where you're seein' thick smoke and you'll hook up nicely

I'm running 275 40 18 Good Years F1

I don't do a burnout I go around the water box and spin them over to get rid of debris.

Good man..... I've seen so many morons stay in the water and wonder why they're not hooking.

Goodyears get good and sticky when they're hot- i know there pricey, but if you've got the means to replace 'em, give it a whirl!!!

Aw, damn...... Well, you can always borrow the slicks from the guy in the '78 camaro- there's always a guy with a camaro at every dragstrip, at any given time..... I think it's a requirment of all strips in the u.s. Lol

My bad...... I noticed that you were a neighbor up north as soon as i posted! Sorry 'bout that......

Trans am and mustangs would've been my next thought to borrow from, lol

let me guess, foxbody 'stangs and an early-to-mid 90's t/a??? That is the norm here in the d as well, with the exception of the backwoods boy's in the camaro
