^LOL-talking of the "gossip" Ive heard that as well-guilty!

 

well i dont have any of my time slips here, i actually file them in with all my personal records and i have all my records at my accountants right now.


kinda sucks!!


you can go 10s with a mid to high 1.7 and 130 trap for sure...

 

If thats the case then DR's should be all that will be needed, with a mid boost setting.

 

That wouldn't be much of a show, Vinny Ten (VTR) would show up and run 8's all day long...

This question may have been addressed already, but why aren't any of Vinny's times posted on the top 25 list?

 

He is doing 10's from a combination of weight reduction,power and tires.
I ran a 11.3 both at 124 with a 1.6 60 ft on less boost, and one at 128 with a 1.9 60 ft and more boost. Both runs my car was a fat pig at 3600lbs loaded.
Jeremy I know for a fact has a TON of sheet metal cut from the rear of his car,he has a fuel cell and no gas tank, he has no power steering pump and accesories, no drivers and passengers airbags, and a ton of useless brackets and metal chopped out from his car. He claimed to weigh it in at 2800lbs.Every 100lb reduction is good for .1 in the 1/4 on average. Combine that with a set of slicks, ans skinnies. The skinnies alone decrease rolling mass, and cut .2 on average off your time. The slicks should always cut about .3-.7 off your Drag Radial time..Add in all those factors in a 550hp car, and a 10.9 is common. What Jeremy did with is car is cool, but not all that impressive to tell you the truth..Considering I still have the FASTEST POSTED DRAG RADIAL time to date, in a full weight car with my fat A$$ driving, does speak wonders..Give me slicks,Skinnies,and a 400lb diet and watch me go 10.0 with the HP Im making.

 

werd..any of the big dawgs know???

 

Cause Vinny Ten does not own a 350Z...That car was Andrew and Gary Rubios, not his.. And despite past claims, they really did not do much for the 350Z community as a whole, and in Dan Zeiglers words, "we dont want to SHARE the technology". In case you dont know, Dan was Performance Motorsports old PR guy and did sales. All that PM did was go fast and keep secrets, never did they once come on here and share one bit of information or findings like Myself,Sharif,Jeremy,GTM, ect...

 

Wow-no disrespect to Jeremy, but I agree with Julian! Jeremy helped "motivate" me thats for sure...not too long ago I remember us battling over who would run 11's first (me in TN, him with N20), I did it, then he ran hundreths of a second faster!

BTW-Julian-you and Luie are all I really have to compare to, FULL weight street cars with sticky tires. Jeremy had too many "benefits" for me to even think Id hit his times with the same 60ft and LESS boost than what he ran...

 

No disrespect to Jeremy Either...I bust his ***** on the phone all the time..Im just busting his ***** here..Me and him were gonna go on PINKS, but I dont really need his P>O>S> car..

 

thanks man, i appreciate the support!!!



my car is still licensed and insured and could pull up to you ANY day of the week on the street. i only used nitrous on the last couple runs i had but it didnt do anything but make my clutch even worse. most of my 10 second runs were from 14-15.5 psi. so i would say close to high 500s...


my 10.4 run was at around 17 psi with a 70 shot, not happening with a bunch of shifts..

 

Not true...
Andrew Rubio went 10.3 in a 6mt 3 years ago...I was there to see it at Atco during NOPI.

 

im telling you, if we went on pinks, (which still is very possible with the contact i have) i would get in your car at the end, rev it up to 6900 or whatever your rev limiter is at, drop the gay *** clutch, turn right , run it into the wall and throw you your keys back....


i dont need some slow *** gay colored orange Z, you could have it back...

 

I agree with you 100% that all those things come into play.
However riddle me this Batman... I have cut 1.6's 60ft on my DR's a few times, and the average 60ft with slicks on this forum is a mid 1.6's. So where do you calculate the .3-.7 off the DR time?

 

oh i know its possible, i am just saying its not possible at 17 psi and a70 shot in first gear like i ran it

 

LOL.... Go as fast as you want..Still cant outrun your own Gheyness..

 

 

this hot ***** sitting next to me right now pretty much tells me i am not gay.



PLUS i would say that more gay guys drive Orange cars than black ones

 

The average, for the average driver..I pulled that number out of my A$$ acutally..
But riddle me this...How many 1.4-1.5 60s have you seen on DR's? Not any on this board I think...So take the average 60ft of say 1.9 on DR's for most of my weak sauce runs..Now if I had slicks, Im sure 1.5's would be the norm.For me that would be almost a half second improvement.

 

Well I have heard you love BIG BLACK THINGS...
P.S. Fixed.......

 

julian, the only 1.5 you will see is the amount of doughnuts you could eat before your coffee is finished...
