Hell Yea!! I was there also. I saw a bike get a 7.42. You are right behide him. That is very fast!!!

 

Are you using slicks? If you are what size slicks do you have? How are the new axles holding up?

 

Using the standard MT ET Streets that everyone is using :26'' x 10.5'' - 15''LT
The enforced Axles are holding up fantastic. A good investment to say the least

 

Holy crap! Nice!

 

My Z is slow.

 

I am definately jealous... I need to get me some good rubber and light rims to put it on... my 2.8 60's are killing me!!!

 

you can do 2.1's even 2.0's on stock tires. It's just a matter of practise.

Come out to the track on a regular basis and you'll see improvement soon...

Just awsum.. You will have to post your - Blueprint to go 1.8 for the other members.

As I asked in another post - what was the tire pressure for your M/T's
and what altitude?

Cheers Amy -

 

+1 on the 1/4 mile with pun intended.

 

I have them agt 13.5 psi now this seems to work really well for me.
I got much better burnouts by revving up to 5500 rpm in second gear. I also launched at 5200 rpm

Irwindale altitude is about 300 feet above sea level...so perfect, except it's only an 1/8 mile.

I did 5 runs, 8.01, 7.965, 7.925, 8.1 (screwed up the launch) and then the 7.778 after that I figured it was time to celebrate as this would translate into a 11.6 at the 1/4

 

Time for a near Sea Level 1/4 mile run.. Right on Mr. Tom Cat

Cheers Amy -

 

Sept 9th at Farmoso Speedway in Bakersfield the only 1/4 seal level track left in southern cali.

 

Is that a private event cuz I want to go.

 

no, it's the last test and tune of the year there. It's public.
I've never been there so I don't know how full it gets. I will take that day off and drive out there early.

Tomcat - it was nice seeing you at the track! Great runs! Glad you ended on a high note ~ @ss kickin!!!

I'm normally on G35Driver but wanted to visit what's being said on this board... Good to see that some Zs are out making a presence... Thanks for the info about Sept Speedway - very intriguing about limited entries I’m tempted, but with N/A feel a little outta place.

Sin did real well for NA VQs ~ Bested Ted and I by breaking 9!!! Would be a nice race head up on ¼ mile : )

New to this forum guys – hope you don’t mind me chiming in. Hope to see some of you at the track and dyno days!

Welcome Mike!
It was nice meeting you as well, it's always great to see other Z's or G's at the tracks, not enough of us out there.

 

Videos are on the way. Oh, BTW. At least I didn't get beat by a truck. Hee, Hee, you only ran a 12.49. Nice run anyways. :-)

 

What is the Daytona Blue APS TT's screen name?

 

his name is Alpine

well at least I kept on beating that greddy Z
