Default 350Z Wins T2 Debut!

jmark,
tc debuted the car @ Willow Springs this past weekend and earned the first national win for the Nissan 350Z. Of course he was the only T2 car there but was well below the existing track record. Nissan has done their homework. The car is good right out of the box. The only mods on the car at Willow were safety items. Still has the AC and so on and so forth. Tried both 17" &18" wheels. Koni is currently building dampers for the car and a few items from Nismo are on the way. tc will be in the car again @ Firebird in a couple of weeks and I hope to drive the car for the first time @ Road Atlanta at the end of March. I'll keep you posted.

Uh-oh... could the f-body stranglehold on T2 be ending? Maybe they'll let the LS1 guys yank out the restrictor plate if the 350Z's are already beating track records. Think five years down the road when the f-body is no longer eligible for T2 due to age...

TC is known for racing BMW's. I do know he built a S2000 for T2 and my friend Neal Sapp ran it two years ago and went to the Runoffs in it. I guess he saw potential with the Z!
