I think we should have different "starting lines" for N/A, F/I on pump gas, and F/I on E85/race gas.


... and since the GTR's are 4 wheel drive cars, they get to run on the grass alongside the strip. Ok, j/k on this last part.

I'm going to lose no matter what, might as well take it like a man

However, if my lowly N/A track car beats a hot air blowing VQ in a straight line, I forsee many beers in celebration. Last time I ran the 1320 I trapped like a 107 mph. But that was a full interior ago, plus some other goodies along the way.

Ok, I have taken your spot as the slowest Z there. My best trap was 102 in the 1/4. Registered for fun.

j/k I'll break my 5AT with that mid range torque. I'll keep it at 20 psi or below.

Ah look, Raj and Alex getting scared! I run on E85 100% of the time, so no E85 doesn't quite work for me. Pretty sure that was your plan though.

the grass actually may be smoother than that right lane of the strip - lol.

we need to remember to bring some red cones to mark the last couple hunded feet of braking zone. Ryan and I will need an extra hundred feet of grass to slow down from +140

another benefit of the grass is we will not have to worry about the plane landing on top of us like last year

E85 GTR Vs My E85 G35?

Could this be the premier matchup this year?
