for dinner and adult beverages. We can talk about how ajcool2 kicked my butt.


I saw him coming into the track in the swapped maxima yesterday, but I was mad and leaving. I haven't seen him run the Z in a while.

Correct. If you do not make the Quick 16 or race and get eliminated, you can jump into Summit ET racing. This is what makes this a good deal for novice racers. Quick 16 with a pro tree is very competitive. Novice racers get lots of practice with the pro tree, sportsman's tree, and dial in.

Quick 16 is done without regard to import or domestic. So you may have 16 imports. Who knows.

LOL it might not happen this year. I've raced at MIR twice this year and my times were not the greatest. Hopefully the cooler weather will help some. Applebees sounds good I'll be there.

Great. Hope to have a good 350Z turn out for Quick 16. Believe that qualification rounds begin at 2.

I'm out, sorry fellas.....I thought I had it worked out tonight, but after the 2nd pass my drive line issue resurfaced. I was looking forward to it too.

Very tough field this year. Just about everybody ran a new PB tonight. Off the top of my head there are 5 cars in the 12's in my class. My best was a 13.46@101. My trap is always low at MIR for some reason. We were supposed to get 3 qualifying runs in but the cancelled the 3rd run because there was way tomany cars racing. So tomorrow we get one more qualifying run then eliminations start. I've learned that I need to keep my tire pressure at 20-25. When ever I drop it to 15 I run slower. Other highlights in my class were a QR25 sentra ran 12.9@101 with a 1.7 60'. He holds the record for the fastest all motor QR sentra. My friends maxima ran 12.6@108 and he holds the record for the fastest all motor 5.5 gen maxima. Tomorrow I'm going to try for a 13.3. I took a lot of pics I'll upload them soon.

Son of a *****.....why couldn't my car just have held together for a few more weeks . It drives me crazy that my PB is at crapital when I know it would have gone better at Cecil/MIR. Good work on the PB.....what is the cut-off thus far for street stock? AJ, I wouldn't worry about the speed the DA was almost 2,000' higher than 9pm last night...........crazy.

Give me a break down of the Z's please .

As far as I know there is no bump for our class since it was less than 16 so everybody has qualified unless more people jump in tomorrow. I dont know who ran the slowest. I know my buddy ran a 14.0 in his max and I think David messed up his first run but I dont know what he ran his second time around. We're the only Z's n our class. Man If you would have come I know you would have gotten a 12.9. By the time our second run came it was a lot cooler and people were dropping 2-3 tenths off their times.
