Thanks for the car use and the hospitality, Louie. I just wish I felt better.
Next year it will be both of us out there doing the wheel to wheel driving

They were sparco wheels Juan or dave need to chime in but we had some spacers up front to clear the front suspension. Hey Scott do you remember the off set on those bad boys?

That pic of your car chasing down that Supra is bada$$. Offsets of those wheels would be good to know. Im guessing around +30...

I think that the offsets on the front wheels were 35, not ideal IMO for this car but we were able to make it work with the 5mm spacers I brought. I think the rears were 25 offset. Not too sure....... The ideal set up IMO that I have found for wheel offsets wnd tire sizes for these type events is a 18x9.5" front with a offset of 22-30 offset with a 285 or 295/30/18 and for the rear a 18x10.5" with a 315/30/18. We always run this tire and wheel combinations on our Relentless Autosports "Double Down" Time Attack 350Z

Great job Eagle, Scott, etc... on the wins! Very impressive, 180mph in a street car on the straight is insane!

Be safe on your tour Eagle, looking forward to seeing more 10sec,....high 9sec...., drag timeslips from you and your Z when you get back.

What you talking about I thought that is why you won the AWD off road event J/K.... Great Job Scott....maybe we could get more people into Road Race events


Louie....
Sounds like you had fun...Great job! Now you will be hooked. Lots of work right? Scott will tell you that it takes years to learn 10% of what it takes to do road racing.....But damn, its addictive!! Thats why most people like drag racing more, and I dont blame them.

Louie and Scott Congrats. It was sick to watch. I have a short vid or two, but only from Sun morning on the backstraight w/ the "Watts" BMW and AMS Evo an they're pretty short. That car is a beast man. Hope to see you guys out more. I think there may be a few of us out at the tracks next year having some fun shooting it out.

Robbie

Oh and Juans wheels are the Racing Sparcos (not sure of the offset though, I recall a 30-35)

I know what it take trust me. I have my numerous track events under my belt and driving schools. There is no way in hell one can do this alone. I had Scott come and drive the car this only time to dial the car in, and he did, The only person driving this car from now on is my self. I did not want to waste my time figuring things out, when someone else has already done so.
Just wanted someone with alot of seat time tracking a Z adjusting the car. Let me tell you did we do some adjusting. There is some more adjusting I want to do to my style of driving. so stay tuned.
