Props to shin for showing up and actually racing, something most z owners don't do. You will get 13's next time...

Oh and for reference Zain in shins car: 13. 92 @100

Thanks guys.
Yeah..I ran about 20+ passes today..car held up just great.
Lots of 14.0's...I don't know how, but Zain launched my car better than I could ad ran the 13.9..though we were using the same techniques!!!
Then again, he does weigh 100 lbs less than me.
Fck...
I'll try again once I get these tires right here..since rears have 2/35 tread left.

Zain is a pretty small guy. Was it 100lbs for every .10 second? I remember something along those lines.

It was a fun day up at the SCCA National at Summit Point today, too. Nissan was very well represented. Highlights were the Formula Atlantics running well in to the 1:0X's, GT1 cars hitting 170mph down summit main straight.....and running in the 1:13's, and the GT2 tube frame 350z of James Goughary running in the 1:15-1:16 range during qualifying. Strong showing for Brian Kleeman and Rob Hines in T3 as well. Fire a few pics up later.
