**TRACK/Meet/Party Thread – 9/21**
Jon-Id do a 3.9FD, cuz the stock 3.5FD along with the 7500rpm redline = too long of gears for the NA powerband. Thats just as long as my 3.3FD with a 7000rpm redline and sometimes I think the gears are too long and you know the power I make. Do a 3.9FD and drag radials which I think you already have, and that will give you the opportunity for 12's easy. Id take a 12.9 sec NA Z over a 12.0 N20 Z anyday, unless you can have both

I have a delimena now and maybe you guys can help out. I want to mod my car a bit more and only thing available for the 07's I can think of now is a more aggressive final drive or nitrous oxide. Both should run me around 1k installed. What do you guys think is a smarter investment?
Theres drawbacks to each. Final drive being the higher rpm speeds on the highway which can be annoying. The nitrous a chance to blow the motor. Dont know if the timing can be changed on the 07's yet, so theres that drawback.

Todd, opps, I mean "Aceman"this is why we love you! Too bad I'm a big puss and haven't built the planned TH-350 350ztt yet. But, how about a grudge match with the BMW super sled ?
Love,
Travis

I will see what I can do to attent this event.
My schedule is pretty up in the air at that point due to a project going live.
I am sure it will be a good time though.

. For the record I plan on NOT being stock engine-wise. Nothing big just a few breather mods. My goal is trapping 100 mph (w/slicks).
Karl-who's slicks are you using? I hope Nowell comes out and finally runs that thing, time to back up the stock block numbers where it counts. If he doesnt I know he has a set of slicks he'd likely let you borrow.
Todd-is your buddy with the trailer who lives nearby gonna be there? Or will you have access to the trailer?

I have a flatbed and a regular tow truck. If you guys want I can bring it. Got it with the purchase of the new salvage yard
I wont charge much just pay for my gas.
