The Mile Marker 1 run was an amazing experience! Everything from a 1000cc shifter cart to a Porsche Carrera GT ran in the event.. it was Vettes for the most part. Fastest car standing mile was a Twin Turbo C5 Vette @ 204.2! There was a Turbine powered funny car that ran a 285mph mile too. Representing Nissan was a pair of GTR's and 3 350's.. A Nismo, Jim Wolf TT'd, and mine(stock.. intake and exhaust). Here's pics.. the next event is in Oct and hopefully I'll be boosted to compete. I'd def recommend the event for spectators and racers alike.

My times:

114mph.. Misjudged the exit and slammed my brakes at 8/10's of a mile.. my bad.
134.4mph.. Horrible launch but thanks to a tailwind and crisp shifting I was able to get passed 130mph
134.7mph.. Missed 2nd but still managed a 134.7
134.8mph.. Best launch, no misses but I started getting a nasty cross wind on the runway, it didnt make my squirm or anything but it did hurt my top end speed.

At that speed my Z was solid.. my only indication of my speed other than the speedo was the wind noise.

Notable times:

Supra.. 199.8 mph
TT'd Z.. 177 mph
Nismo.. 154 mph
Carrera GT.. 176.5 mph
GTR.. 165.5 mph
996 Porsche.. 179mph

 

and more pics

 

and more...

 

and... more

 

very pretty cars.

 

Cool beans.....was Saad Saad there (silver supra with HUGE single turbo)....he made a 20k bet he would break 240mph, but obviously that didn't happen.

 

He was a no show... The only supra there was the red one pictured. I don't know why he'd make a bet for 240mph when the standing mile record is 253 mph completed by a TT'd Ford GT which happends to be the World Record.

 

Was the Nismo close to stock also? If it was, its interesting that he was 20 mph faster than you. Does the body kit do that much? I can't see it doing so.

 

nice wing flo... when did you install? i should have attended. looks like a lot of
fun. next year. your car looks great.

 

those pics remind me of 2f2f racewars :P dude why did you post this on the sfzcc forum? i would of loved to go

 

Luv the Gixxer....is there any any TeamLSR there(black 03' Turbo busa with 700+ hp)

BTW,the yammie R1 cart is spinning right?I think I see that on youtube.
And I see red Oscar NSX there...he doing good despite being the stock 3.2 C32B,6 speed tranny(other 2 NSX was running with turbo)

Good event & hope to see more Z running in the field!

 

200mph Supra?

Which one?

 

I was there too,but not racing the mile, you went by my side one time, the other silver z.

 

cool pics...i am curious too if that nismo-z was close to stock or not

 

You were the boosted one right?

 

He had an intake and a cobb tune.. aside from that he was stock. I can tell you that there was another black Z and he told me that his car didnt feel all that stable at 140mph, I couldnt imagine 179mph.. mine was well planted. That first turn off mistake I made... well it was executed at about 90mph.

 

a red one.. dude it sounded like an airplane when boost hit... pure ear sex.

 

missed this earlier but nice coverage. wonder why mike/crazyg didnt make it out.

 

I'll have more.. then next one is Oct 10th

 

yeah that was me !!!, let see if i'm ready for the next event I still have to retune the z with the haltech and install the APS fuel system , 14-16 psi on E85, ans 18-20 on c16, but if I run I'll do it with 14 psi on E85, that is going to be my DD MAP, i do have some videos and pictures too from april, but not as good as the one you posted.
