Jotech is the BEST .... glade I finally got to see your shop and meet your staff.

thank you for letting me be part of this great event. I had a blast even though I let the owner of this 300ZX down with my lack luster performance. I wish I could have gotten my 3rd run time, it seemed a lot better once I lowered the tire air pressure. It was my first time dragging this car and I was really afraid to just let it go......

For those that can make it ..... we have a Tuesday night meet @ Flips in Grapevine.

A sports bar/restuarant with a patio bar. Our 300ZX group meets up there every Tuesday from 8 to 11. We have invited all the Z/Gs that are interested

I had a great time! It was extremely hot & humid ...BLAH. Some good looking Z's out there! I took a few pics.. nothing special, at all. I had my camera on the wrong settings so they're very noisy and grainy. I'll get them up sometime this week

Next time, I'll be dragging with you

Also, congratulations to our winners.

It was extremely hot and humid, but for the most part, I think most of everybody did pretty damn well.

Click on the below picture for the results. I didn't know if you guys wanted your name by your times or not, so I just put your race numbers in. Good job, guys.
Wow, the heat is really hurting everyones times. Cant wait until the weather cools down alittle. I hope September is a month for new records

Congrats on setting this up Chris, I know it can be tough getting everyone together for these types of events.

Thanks Todd. I would've posted much better times (last time with about the same climate, I posted a 13.3), but my y-pipe has huge leaks on both flex pipes. I'll be replacing them soon, though.

When am I gonna see your name above mine? I expect you to keep your word about September.

I found a few of my old times @ Ennis when I had my SC 350Z. I think with some practice I can get the 300ZXTT to run as good if not better.

There's nothing this Friday or even in September. The next available test and tune day is October 4th (Thursday).

I may have to talk to Tony about another one. We definitely want another one before 2008 rolls around.

I may not make it to this one as it's on a Thursday and not a Friday like it usually is. Not only that, the climate won't be that great to set any personal bests. This is subject to change at any time, though. I'll try to go, but I'm not making any guarantees just yet.
