Hi everyone,

We just got back, and are dead tired, but want to post up some pics and results from this weekend's Time Attack.

Coming off our twin 2nd place wins in Nashville, we knew that the competition would be even stronger at Summit Point.

The whole team is thrilled to have captured first place in both Unlimited RWD and Modified RWD. Both the Forged Performance 350Z and G35 both performed cool and clean all weekend long. I have to say, that the G35 is just simply retardedly fast, especially when driven by the very talented Robert Fuller from RobiSpec. In fact, it was so fast, that we couldn't keep the decals from flying off the car. His nasty tire and suspension/aero setup, had the G35 working perfectly all weekend long, and wastegate pressure and 450whp. Not bad for a brand new Forged Performance S1 shortblock, that had about 2 hours of total run time on it, before making the 10 hour road trip to Summit Point.

With the Forged Performance 350Z, we were actually running even LOWER boost this time out. Turns out we had a small hole in a vaccum line, that was resulting in a small overboost. Once we changed out the line, boost settled in at just 8psi and 400whp. We flat ran out of time, and no time to retune and install a boost controller. It will be interesting to see how I can do once the boost is turned up, and we use a wider tire package. Currently running a 275/295 setup.

For those that havent visited Summit Point, this is one VERY dangerous track, with almost no open run-off.....unless you call tire stacks and concrete walls...the run-off. At least a half dozen cars had some pretty major incidents. Fortunately, nobody was injured, and the cars can be easily repaired.

One last thought. These events are just as much about the people, as well as the cars. I think it goes without saying, that everyone had a great time, and we are fortunate enough to have a lot of great customers and friends, that come and show their support. We can't do it without you guys!!!

Here are the final results for the Nissan group. We also podiumed with the Evo in 2 classes as well.

1st place Forged Performance G35 Robert Fuller 1:36.569 (Philthy's car)

And the Forged Performance Scooter was HUGE hit!

 

Congrats bro!! I wish I could have made it but I'll be at VIR for shure. Not only are the FP cars fast, they are clean as heck! Those time attacks make me want to go back to black!

So what place did Sandy and Angela get with the yellow Forged Performance scooter?? What boost is it running??

 

<--- wishes he was local to you guys, I would love to run the EVO with you guys, although I would probably be behind (not the best driver)

When are you guys going to do an event on the west side? I would be awesome!

Good Driving Sharif!

 

Ummm f all this car talk, more pics of the girls ! Who's the one on the right Sharif. Stop being so stingy

 

Angela is XKR's (Mike) wife. I bet She and Sandy turned a better lap time on the scooter than Sharif in the car. He is just scared to post it.

 

Nice work Sharif! The ladies look good (as always). Looking forward to hopefully seeing ya soon.

 

They would DQ my race car. I spoke to one of the techs. Maybe in a few years I may gut my car like Phil and run it.

 

Congrats on the finish!

 

They did a 1:25.876.......Sharif's fastest time was a 1:36.

 

Gotta love a Z beating an Ariel Atom and Super 7. Excellent driving was needed to I'm sure.
